Bad Sector was born as personal creation of Massimo Magrini, who is living in Tuscany. Magrini has collaborated for long time with the research department of Music at CNUCE in Pisa (one of the institutes by CNR – National Research Institute of Italy) releasing original gestures interfaces to be used in many live performances in Italy, Spain, Greece, Cuba etc. This big experience together with the experiences done with local post-punk bands (Jesus Blood) was bringing in 1993 to the birth of the Bad Sector project, which is a mix of electronic experimentation, usually dark emotions, ambient and industrial. His first CD “Ampos” released in 1995 (recently reprinted in Germany with additional unreleased material), was received very well by both critics and audience.
In the next years the many different releases, also the more experimental ones (like Plasma in 1997), gave to the project good known in the international electronic underground. The "success" of Bad Sector was surely bild also by the many live performances (among others in Belgium, England, Germany, Czech Republic, Austria, UK, France, Russia, Australia …), a sort of hyper-dj set in which Magrini often uses particular self-build gestural “controllers”.
His activity recently moves also on extra-musical territories, like the collaboration with the poem writer Tommaso Lisa. He is also one of the two members of the ambient experimental band Olhon.

Hi, just a quick comment, you track Ampos is just fantastic ! I love the static discharge feel of Open Universes, I adopt the same kind of atmosphere in alot of my tracks...excellent. Carla1977 is a relaxing journey into the subconsious..soothing. Hide almost has an un-easy feel to it, almost puts you on the edge of your set at moments. I really enjoy your music !! thank you for sharing your gift with us :)
returned to say hello and would like to play some of your material on my radio show the Tunnel starts in an hour!! at www.kser.org from Seattle. Peace++
Hello Massimo. I uploaded another track from the album «Symbiosis of Contradictions». That small ambient song called “Weather in Numbers” is the soundtrack for the today’s sky outside my window. Just a weak sunshine behind the grey clouds. Hope you will like it, thx for your support! /Ivan
Finalmente abbiamo deciso di caricare una canzone su myspace. Il brano scelto come prømø è "Outward Calm, Hidden Truth" e lo trovate diviso in 3 parti nel player. Suggeriamo di scaricare i 3 file, metterli in una singola playlist o su cd senza pausa tra le tracce e ascoltare l'intera canzone... al più alto volume che potete
