It's 1989 when at 16 years of age Federico Gandin buys his first two turntables...since then his passion for electronic music won't ever desert him.
His dj activity expands in time going from acid-house to his first techno record purchased in 1992 ("Waveform Transmission Vol.1) which will be the start of it all.
He takes part in various raves and in 1994 he opens a dj shop "Deep zone" with the aim of importing records and develop a local market totally isolated from the rest of Europe.
Beyond his passion for electronic music, Federico is also a collector of jazz, 60's rock and bossanova records.
He work as dj alongside hundreds of international artists from every part of the world in these years like Derrick May, Los Hermanos, Juan Atkins, Kevin Saunderson, Robert Hood, Funk D'Void, Deetron, Joris Voorn and many many others....
He is the artistic director of Iamfromdetroit in 2007 and Iam festival in 2008.
Actually he manage the records section in Fnac Grugliasco.
The sound of Detroit is the main influence for his sets where the mixing tecniques and the eclectic choice of the tracks are the way to intend techno and house not only as musical genre but also as a contemporary art project expressing itself in many forms and variations.

here we are again!
while waiting for the much awaited following eclipse releases, we bring you the next "eclipse limited", produced by our Decoside.
This second chapter of the RELOAD series includes two deep dub techno cuts from one of the finest Italian dub producers.
"Reload 3" features a unsynched ambientish pad, a deep rhythmic vibe and an analogue feel perfect for the warm up.
"Reload 4" is a slower and more soulful track; running at 115 bpm, its
synth sequence and the reverb+delay manipulation make the track a
perfect trip for dark and deep situations, in the traditional eclipse
trademark!
The mastering was made by Detroit native and talented producer/dj Aaron-Carl, which made us happy and proud again!
Decoside confirms himself as a prime mover for dub techno!
"Superb dub techno trax here! right up my alley. Big up!
Full support" (Brendon Moeller)
