Interview on ‘City’ Magazine

admin — Tue, 19 Jul 2011 12:01:17 +0000

City is a free newspaper distributed in various Italian cities with a large distribution and part of one of Italy’s largest media groups: RCS.

I have recently been interviewed with the double objective of finding out about the expansion of Just-Eat into Italy and to pick my brain about the ‘brain-drain’ in my homecountry.

Potete leggere l’intervista in Italiano qui: LINK TO INTERVIEW IN ITALIAN
Or you can read it translated by Google in English here: LINK TO GOOGLE TRANSLATED INTERVIEW IN ENGLISH

NB: the google translation really is not 100% accurate!

I was very interested in the angle this interview took and unfortunately we did not have time to explore the subject of the brain-drain in enough depth. Hopefully there will be another opportunity soon!

For the moment I am particularly happy to have a seat on the board of Just-Eat Italy and finally being able to work in Italy after a few years abroad.

PS:Special thanks to Gianluca Torti for the interview!

What’s new?

So I am guilty of not updating this website a lot lately! I know, bad bad!

The plan for the future is the following:

This website will most likely get a major upgrade / layout change
I will turn it into my personal & professional blog
Music will still be a major part of it although I’ll probably blog more than post my own music
I will probably talk about business and e-commerce quite a bit which is my main occupation these days!
Overall it will become much more personal & professional than the current music site.

Now for the big question everyone is asking me! “Are you still making music? DJing?”

Short answer: “Yes, I am”

Long answer: “Things have been going quite slowly on the music side of things during the last year. As you probably know I had to stop producing my radio show and I haven’t released any new tracks in a while. This does not mean I have stopped completely! I still really enjoy producing music and DJing but I simply don’t have as much time anymore”.

What music video tutorials would you like to see?

giorgio — Wed, 08 Apr 2009 19:39:54 +0000

I am very interested in covering subjects that the community around the site wants to know more about. What “hot” topic would you like to see explained? Any special sounds you’d like to see? Just put your comments or your questions in the comments and I’ll try to create the tutorials accordingly.

I have already noted down some topics I would like to cover and I have some great ideas about some Dance Music Secrets I want to share

This time they’ll be full 720p HD video tutorials and, of course, for free!

Stay tuned…

A whole new website!

About time! The website has gone through a visual & conceptual face-lift. Unfortunately during the last year I haven’t had much time to produce any new music and the radio show also recently took a hit as I am get busier and busier and I keep relocating for work reasons. I have however definitely not quit the music business nor music-making. Therefore I have decided to put the website to an alternative use while music production is low.

During the last 11 years I have gained a lot of knowledge about DJing and music production and I want to share this with you! I will start to produce music tutorials on a regular basis and I’ll try to keep them as up-to-date as possible transforming this website into a small “school of dance music”. As you can read in THIS post, this series of video will be called “DMS” or “Dance Music Secrets”.

So enjoy the new website and don’t forget to spread the news using the buil-in bookmarking functions on each post so you can share the news on Facebook and the likes

All feedback is of course welcome!
