Hello everybody,my name is Lorenzo, I'm 22 years old and I live in a small city called Cuneo near Turin in Italy. I study cinema at the University in Turin. In my spare time I like to listen to music and playing music too. I like all the styles of popular music but especially my favourites are house, techno and hip hop. Other my passions beyond music and Djing are travelling, cooking, movies in general.
I start to listen to music when I was fourteen and at first I appreciate house music because this kind of music has an amazing rhythm and sounds very hot. I start to listen to other styles when I was a dj at the radio. In this period I was having a program in a radio of my city and I put on songs of all types of popular music and so in my radio broadcast our listener could listen songs from rock to jazz or rap without problems, but it was always music of good quality, not commercial or done without real interest. For example in a playlist based on 8 songs and 40 minutes of program we 've put on in the same broadcast names like Ali Farke Tourè, Chateau Flight, Lou Reed, John Coltrane, Peter Tosh, Dj Spinna, Francois Kevorkian and Lucinda Williams.
About three years ago I've started to create music with electronic instruments like synths or computer and finally this year I published my first cd produced by myself. This cd, called Blended, contains 9 songs and about the music I could say that it's techno and house music not excessively complicated but at the same time the Blended sound is not for the masses. It's istrumental music but in 2 songs there are some vocals. There're also 4 long version mixed. Blended album is arrived at 500 copies and for the first time is good for me. I've produced all the things contained in Blended, even the label and only the print and the copies of the album were done by other people. It was registered on an old laptop, mixed by myself, cleaned by the noise of the synth. After I've protected the songs with the copyright.Now I'm working for a second album.
As dj I'm freelance and I play music when I found an engagement, often in bars or private club. My Dj's sound is made above all of techno, house, elektro and hip hop music, at the same time I like to put on some jazzy and soul songs. Generally the music I play comes from the underground but also I want to be opened when I play music.
First of all I like to introduce my dj sets with 30 minutes of calm songs, from some free jazz or bepop to lounge and etno or latinos sounds. Then I pass to house, techno and hip hop, and at the end I like to play other things, for example great soulmen or some chill out not excessively boring. About my mixing style sometimes I create live some bootleg, mash ups between a voice and a rhythmic base. As effects I don't miss to do some scratches, filters and brakes. But first of all for me the base of mixing is to give a continuity between the songs you're playing. Generally the fading I do when I'm mixing two songs is about 40 seconds, but in some particular circumstances it can go on for 70-80 seconds. Often it depends on the place you're playing. If it's a club or a disco the songs should go on for 4 minutes about. In a bar you can play a songs for a longer time than discos and you can dare more because in a club you must play songs that the people dance and for this some kinds of music are not esay to play.
