..CATIVO (Assimilate Rec., Freak Rec. / Urban Takeover / GERMANY)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cativo first experienced music in the shape of Italian arias und folksongs from Naples, his fathers hometown. Further steps of his musical self-definition were EBM, Industrial, and Techno. Between 1988 and 1995, groups like Front Line Assembly, Ministry, Joey Beltram, and KFMDM mainly inspired Cativo. Having worked in a record store from 1992 to 1995, Cativo gradually started to produce his first own tracks and to perform as a DJ .
His good friend LELONEK (ANOKHA), living in London, got him in touch with DrumnBass. The amazing energy of this special kind of dance music infected him with ease. As a matter of fact, Cativo reanimated the legendary Noize Club (named after the incredibly loud sound system) of his favorite club, Wrzburgs Airport, being one of the bigest clubs in Germany.
In 1999, leading German electronic label Force Inc./Position Chrome signed him. His releases caught the attention of both European and American press, being praised for their uncompromising style and uniqueness.
Cativo is looking back at some really busy years, yet even busier to come -
. Apart from
bringing out several productions and touring as a dj, founding his own label
ASSIMILATE REC. he is managing a busy club night ( list of guest djs for these events
: hype, krust, bukem, Grooverider, jonny l, Bad.Company., Optical to name just a few.) He is a resident
Dj for a club in Wrzburg, and for the Hoch10- Events in Hamburg.
Not only the unique style of his sets but his high quality productions seem
to hit the right spot as his tunes are being played regularly on air by
legendary BBC Radio 1 dj John Peel (r.i.p.).
A successful proof of CATIVOS talent is his mix cd
'The Incredible New School of German D&B'.
Nowadys he is one of the most popular german D&B Artists.

The first album by "Niveau zero"/ "In_Sect" is a boundary-free wild ride through the many forms of modern bass music. Featuring collaborations with such artists as Ben Sharpa, Broken Note, Hecq and The Unik, it is a new statement of Niveau Zero's sound and his take at concert hall-friendly heavy tracks. Heavy dubstep, hip-hop, metal and breaks collide here to form a massive and addictive collection. An ear-opener against musical sectarianism, as well as a perfect album to spin or dance to.
"In_Sect" will be available now on CD or as mp3 straight from Ad Noiseam.
