Our song "We Are The Fire" went viral on Spotify Italy and placed #3 on ITunes Dance Chart.

    It was my second time working with Davide, and it was an absolute delight to work with him! He once again delivered the tracks and edits super fast with speed, and was super patient when I needed to make more edits and take more time with my vocals. I will definitely work with Davide again, and recommend him as a producer.

    Davide has been an absolute dream to work with! Honestly, one of the best producers I have worked with to date. He created an incredible remix for me (way above my expectations) and way ahead of my deadline. Great constant communication and I loved his enthusiasm throughout the whole journey. I really felt like he cared about our track and it wasn't just another 'job' for him. Would love to get the opportunity to work with him again and would 100% recommend.
