When turning sixteen Marco Rigamonti’s classical approach to music suddenly gets knocked-over by the discovery of bands like Prodigy and Chemical Brothers: those guys were able to convey a punk attitude – until that moment in time a “real bands” thing only – into an almost completely electronic music environment. That kind of attitude (followed later on by people like Fatboy Slim and Daft Punk) becomes the main reason for Marco to go out and buy a mixer and two turntables: with those tools he starts learning the fine art of merging beats, bringing sounds together, tweaking frequencies and mixing styles – in one word, he starts being a deejay. His rise through the ranks is fast enough, and somehow culminates in the attainment of Magazzini Generali’s dj booth in 2002; that place had always been Marco’s reference point for clubbing, and he will be resident dj there on wednesdays (“The night of contemporary beat”) and saturdays (“Klash!”) for 6 years. Meanwhile he begins messin’ around with synths and sequencers, cutting mash-ups and unauthorized remixes that quickly catch the attention of Alessio Bertallot (an Italian dj and musician that since 1996 has been helping the spread of good music in Italy through his Radio Deejay show B-Side). Years go by, and Marco works with Stefano Ghittoni (as Double Beat), with Guido Biondi (as Draw The Line), with Andrea Bertolini (as The Voidz) and produces tracks and remixes on his own for labels like Stereoseven, Clubbin’, Ego, Black Noir, Avioground and Fkj. Nowadays he spins regularly for “Under The Spotlight” (trance events and radio shows), “Clubhaus Eighties” (the best 80s party you could possibly imagine) and keeps proposing his sound around, always staying true to his elastic and sharp eclecticism - ready to be moulded and flexed to every kind of situation with the firm intent to avoid damaging the sacred rule of fun.
