Q: How was the rave scene in Rome in the 90s, and how did it influence you?

A:It's been very important for me and all italian techno movement. In that time Rome was italian techno, the only italian techno scene.

In 1991 I was too young to go to Rave parties but I was connected with rave scene through a local radio station that pushed all best techno of the moment and informed people about rave parties (legal warehouse parties)...And all this connected with a great records shop, re-mix. I was lucky to follow djs like Lory D, Leo Anibaldi, Luca Chucchetti, Freddy K, etc etc. In that time I realized to love techno and to want become a dj.

Q: How do you seduce the crowd during a event?

A:I just make my personal journey during my set, of course not forgetting the crowd

Q: How is the Techno scene in Rome today?

A:I think it's a good moment. There are different nice parties and a lot of great artists in my opinion.

Q: Any extra words?
