Born Brescia, Italy 1959. Italian producer, label manager and entrepreneur. He is the founder of Media Records and Media Studio.

In the 90s he founded BXR: on this label careers of DJs like Mauro Picotto, Gigi D'Agostino and Mario Più were started.

The master and legend, without a doubt.
Anticappella – Move Your Body is one of the best dance tunes from the early 90s + video clip ... finger-licking.
The fire and real emotions.
