Quartz

Real Name:
Adriano Filippucci
Profile:
Adriano Filippucci started his musical career at the age of 6, starting out by learning to play piano before, and the art of composition later, that lead him to perform within a jazz band.
As Adriano grew, so did his musical passion, and at the age of 16 he discovered electronic music; channeling his musical energies into the art of Djing, together with his friend Federico Poletti.
During the following years he was invited to perform in a lot of famous local clubs receiving great feedback for his talent.
When he was 17, a call from the best electronic music studio and label in Perugia (SVR Records) invited Adriano to collaborate as musician and he
became soon an expert in the field of analogue and digital synthesis.
Adriano soon become influenced by the thriving techno and house scene being developed in Europe, so he wanted to push his curiosity further and with long time friends Federico Poletti, Pietro Marrone and Simone Mencarelli they set up a music production company and a recording studio: Random Entertainment.
His passion for all the kind of music, brings Adriano to produce several tracks in several styles, so teaming up with Simone, they introduced Quartz in the techno scene and soon their first musical creation "Synergie", become a ‘new manner’ to produce techno receiving great feedback from several Djs and artists all over the world.
Other projects were created teaming up with Pietro (Human Tech) and Simone(Alpha Duo) releasing by labels such as Serial Killer Vinyl, Presslab, Minimalistik….
His music curiosity and diversity soon brings him to explore other fields in the music scene and after discovering the sounds of Dj’s like Sasha, John Digweed, Satoshi Tomiie soon moved into a different direction under the name of ADF.
In this project Adriano brings all of his past musical experience and contamination and his sound is a mixture of driving house groove deeper pads and vocal insert, as well as a techno influence can be heard listening to his sound.
Already out by well known label all over the world, his tracks always appeared in several compilations , and other music is already signed for the time coming.
All the releases got really good reaction from well known Dj’s and were appreciated by the music press.
