Piero Scarato, aka System 3 was born in 1976 in a small village near Verona, Italy. At the age of five he started playing with his father's expensive Fostex reel tape recorder and listening to Kraftwerk's "Trance Europe Express" vinyl album. For a few years he studied classical piano and singing. His real musical career started in 1991 when he started DJ'ing and playing with an Akai sampler around in small parties and clubs. In 1994 he released his very first record, Vitamin Pills "Saturn Rings" with D. Baraldo (who became his partner for the next few years and with whom he started System 3) and DJ Ottomix (aka Joe Inferno), creator of many international hits. From then on, thanks to his strong friendship with another renowned musician and producer, Mario Percali, he started making music on a regular basis, releasing tracks of different genres. In 1995, inspired by huge names like Marc Acardipane, the Stunned Guys, Claudio Lancinhouse and many others, he signed a contract with one of the best hardcore labels: D-Boy records. System 3 started releasing strong music, including "Keep on fuckin'", "Da Beat" and following that success two new pseudonyms were created, Max E-Crew and Crime Lab. System 3 played in large parties like "Thunderdome in Italy", "Extreme" and more. After D-Boy record's collapse System 3 moved to The Saifam Group and started Aeon Tracks, releasing hits like the classic "Like a shot". In mid 2001 D. Baraldo left the project, and Piero Scarato became a solo artist. He created new pseudonyms to work with, such as Deevoid, Alex Bunkerfreak, The Embalmer, Viewfinder... since then many successful tracks have been released and a brand new studio was built. After a long period of absence from the hardcore scene, in 2007 he was contacted by DJ Dano himself, who decided that it was time to bring System 3 back on stage, starting with a couple of clubs in Amsterdam and one of the best parties ever: the Ground Zero Festival. Through the years many big artists appreciated the quality and innovation brought by this name into music. This has been proved by System 3 being included very often in some of the best selling and most important compilations worldwide, giving System 3 nicknames like "the italian stallion" or "the floorfilla". Today System 3 is working hard on new productions, collaborations and (mainly oldschool) hardcore DJ sets and live performances, based on a MacBook Pro and a few controllers with Logic Pro and Live.
