I’m Davide, music producer from Italy.
In 2015 I was part of the duo “Haxon & Rush” with releases on Universal Music, Armada and Eclypse Records with support from Nicky Romero, Martin Garrix, Tiesto and Tritonal.
Our song "We Are The Fire" went viral on Spotify Italy and placed #3 on ITunes Dance Chart.

In 2017 I’ve started my project “Ruhde” - My first release was an official remix for Lauv which accumulated 6 million plays and counting on YouTube and SoundCloud. I had the opportunity to officially remix The Chainsmokers, Marshmello, Sandro Cavazza, Seeb, Young Bombs, Alessia Cara and many more. I had support from EDM.com, Billboard, Forbes and nominated “One To Watch” by DJ MAG Italy.

    I entered contact with Davide few months ago but due to personal events couldn't go forward with our collaboration. When I finally reached out back this October. He supported me through what I went through by taking this song that had a negative impact for me and he leveled it up to an incredible remix. What he can do is one of the best quality remix I've ever heard.He really made it a song that could Top the charts. He's innovative, available, will carry your project like it's his.Work with him

    I cannot speak highly enough of Davide. He went above and beyond my expectations. To be honest there wasn’t a lot of back and forth because his first pass was so perfect that it didn’t need much fine tuning. I requested a remix. I sent him stems of the vocals and I let him just do his thing. It was perfect. I am so stoked about this remix and I cannot wait for our future collaborations. Aside from being a musical genius in he is a truly lovely person. Thank you Davide! To many more!

    Remixing is an art where imagination is fundamental.

    Davide can take the pieces of the puzzle and turn them into something different but extraordinary. We will surely work with him again soon!

    Davide has a magic touch. I've worked with him on my album and more songs, he just gets better and better and easier to collaborate with. I'd highly recommend everyone invests in working with him multiple times. Easily the best producer to partner with on here.
