Credits include JORDANN, Josh Fudge, Daste, Pink Turns Blue, Louis Prince, Club Kuru, Tropics, Sea Moya, Helena Delandand, Westerman, Jimmy Hunt, and more.If you like that vintage muted tone, very characteristic of modern production inspired by the old times, that’s what I am going mostly for these days. Also specialized in music production and Mix

I'm an Italian-born bassist living in Berlin. In my 20 years of being a professional bass player, I've toured and recorded with JORDANN, Josh Fudge, Daste, Pink Turns Blue, Louis Prince, Club Kuru, Tropics, Sea Moya, Helena Delandand, Westerman, and Jimmy Hunt.
Over the years I've been working also as a music producer/composer and Mixing at my studio in Berlin.
I work out of my studio with Neve and API preamps, vintage amps, and a great selection of vintage and new basses. I also play synth bass and have a collection of synths.
Peace:)
