Alessandro Piatto lega il proprio nome già da bambino ai N.O.I.A., probabilmente il primo gruppo elettronico italiano, fondato nel 1978 da Davide Piatto e Bruno Magnani.
In quegli anni respira l’aria della new wave e della musica elettronica, sostituendo presto giocattoli e pupazzi con batterie elettroniche e sintetizzatori.
Durante i primi anni ottanta produce demo tapes e si esibisce dal vivo in varie formazioni.
Nel 1986 iniziano i suoi djset in chiave punk che si evolveranno negli anni a venire fino a raggiungere la loro dimensione attuale prettamente Techno .
"Claudio "Mozart" Rispoli, Davide Piatto e i N.O.I.A., Alexander Robotnik, i DFC Team sono forse i protagonisti assoluti di una nouvelle vague che ha condizionato per sempre la nostra idea di musica dance: portando le piccole produzioni casalinghe ai vertici delle classifiche internazionali.
Inventando un genere anzi: più generi.
Davide Piatto è un rocker arrabbiato di Cervia.
Chi ha amato il neorock italiano lo ricorderà per i live memorabili della sua band, i "Rebels Without a Cause": cappelli da America del Delta, alligatori, pelle di lucertola ovunque e chitarre scarne e distorte sino all'ossessione. Puro isolazionismo della provincia: le prime macchine elettroniche, i sintetizzatori analogici, quelli che generavano il bip rumoroso che sarebbe divenuto la cifra stilistica delle visioni lisergiche della acid house, batterie elettroniche che sino ad allora solo i Kraftwerk potevano permettersi (e usare).
A inizio anni Ottanta, Piatto produce, in un angolo della sua cameretta, almeno due brani che il mondo intero non dimenticherà: Dirty Talk e Wonderfull. Quei pochi minuti di beat ripetitivo e ossessioni da fiction a bassisimo costo vengono incisi con il nome di Klein & MBO: hanno tutta l'energia liberatoria che qualche tempo dopo i dj di Chicago - da Frankie Knucles a Marshall Jefferson, dai Phuture a Farle Jackmaster Flash, comprimeranno in classici come Love Can't Turn Around.
La House Music era nata. Ma soprattutto, era nato il dj style come oggi lo conosciamo: il concetto stesso di remix, di manipolazione, di rilettura pop. "Musica per non musicisti", due giradischi e un mixer protagonisti assoluti del futuro che ci aspetta.
Piatto, ovviamente, non se ne rende conto. I suoi giochi casalinghi - che oggi sono considerati autentici oggetti di culto e venerati da dj come Dj Hell, lo stesso Knuckles e dai produttori newyorkesi come gli Adult (che proprio a Davide Piatto hanno recentemente chiesto di racchiudere in un cd le registrazioni dei brani mai usciti dei N.O.I.A. di quegli anni...) - viaggiano nei flycase, nelle borse dei dj, sulle rotte del primo nomadismo dance" Tratto da “Last night a dj saved my Life" Bill Brewster, Frank Broughton - Arcana Edizioni (2005)
Nei primi anni novanta Davide e Alessandro iniziano la loro collaborazione in studio e a pubblicare dischi.
In questi anni sono numerose le produzioni, eterogenee tra loro ma con la medesima attitudine, tipicamente "dub".
Nel 2000 producono il disco di inediti dei N.O.I.A. per l’etichetta statunitense Ersatz Audio e avviano la collaborazione con G.D. Luxxe per il team Raymond Barry.
I brani finiscono nelle playlist di Pete Tong e nelle raccolte di Ivan Smugghe.
Successivamente danno nuova vita ad un vecchio progetto dal nome Funk Revenge e producono un cd per l’etichetta “Cavernjatt” di Blade, produttore dei Jestofunk. Nel 2005 inizia la collaborazione con Dandi & Ugo e nasce l’idea di creare un'etichetta discografica che successivamente chiameranno “Italo Business”.
Nel 2006 collaborano con Franz & Shape e pubblicano per la tedesca Relish il singolo “The Man Who Paid Before” che Tiga include da subito nel proprio djset.
Nel 2008 aggiungono alla Italo Business una loro etichetta dal nome "N.O.I.A. Records" proponendo sostanzialmente sia produzioni indie dance e new wave che techno minimal.
Attualmente il duo “Piatto”, stampa singoli e remix per diverse etichette, collezionando buone posizioni nelle chart riservate alla techno e alla minimal. Il loro singoli sono comparsi nelle classifiche personali di Troy Pierce, Pan Pot, Umek e spesso nei dj set di Richie Hawtin.
The name "Piatto" stands for a combo, that is the brothers Davide and Alessandro.
Since his childhood Alessandro follows his brother's group called N.O.I.A.
The N.O.I.A is probably the first Italian electronic musical group founded in 1978 by Davide Piatto and Bruno Magnani.
In those years Alessandro is acquainted with Electronic Music and New Wave starting playing drum machine and synthetizers.
At the beginning of the 80's he produces demo tapes and starts to play live performances with various groups.
In 1986 he plays dj sets with a punk style then, later on, they will become more techno.
For what about Davide: "Claudio "Mozart" Rispoli, Davide Piatto and N.O.I.A., Alexander Robotnik, the DFC Team are perhaps the main characters of a new style of music that can be called "Nouvelle Vague" which has influuenced the traditional idea of Dance Music.These people with their "homemade production" have managed to reach international hits of music by inventing their peculiar and stylish music.
[...]. N.O.I.A. represented the isolationsm of the province, they used the first electronic machine, the analogic sinthetizer, the ones that sounded just like a noisy bip but then will have become the stylistic mark of lisergic visin of acid house music; they used to play drum-machines that only Kraftwerk played at those times.
At the beginning of the 80's Davide Piatto produces alone in his small bedroom two tracks (Dirty talk, Wonderful) that the world won't forget: they were few minutes of repeatitive beat music produced at a very low budget that became records named called Klein and MBO.
Later on DJs from Chicago such as Frankie Knucles, Marshall Jefferson, Phuture, Farle Jackmaster Flash, wull trasform this cool energy in a masterpiece like "Love can't turn around".
House music found its origin, a new style of music was born, that is the remix and a new way of playng pop music. We can call it "music for no- musicians, but only a turntable and a mixer that will have been the two main elements of the music of the future.
Davide, at those times was not aware of lumat he was doing, he couldn't imagine that his homely productions could then be considered precious cult music by DJ Hell, Knucles and the Detroit producer Adult. Recently Adult asked Piatto to record a CD with the unreleased tracks of N.O.I.A. Taken from "Last night a dj saved my Life" Bill Brewster, Frank Broughton - Arcana Edizioni (2005)"
At the beginning of the 90's Davide and Alessandro have started to collaborate together in studio and have begun to publish CDs and
records. They have produced the unreleased of N.O.I.A. for the US label Ersatz Audio and started to collaborate with G.D. Luxxe for Raymond Barry producer team.
Their tracks were included in Pete Tong's playlist and Ivan Smugghe's compilation.
Soon afterwords they started an old project "Funk Revenge" and produced a CD for Cavernjatt of Blade "from Jestofunk" producer.
In 2005 they have started to collaborate with Dandi & Ugo, and they found together the record label "Italo Business"
In 2006 they collaborated with Franz & Shape and published "The man who paid before" for Relish which was included in Tiga's DJ set.
In 2008 together whit Italo Businnes they added N.O.I.A. Records where they included a mixture of Indie Dance, New Wave and
Techno Minimal music. Nowadays the group "Piatto" continue on publishing CDs and remix for several labels reaching always good positions in the charts.
Their singles can be found in the private playlist of many djs as Troy Pierce, Pan Pot,Umek, also Richie Hawtin and many more.
