About me:
I am a music addicted since 1985, the year I bought my first cassette, "Estensioni" by Scialpi, I was 10 years old.
I go to concerts since 1990, mi first gig was LITFIBA at "Appiani Stadium" in Padua, I was 15 years old.
I attended disco-club since 1989, and gothic-wave nights since 1996. I discovered new wave in 1989 (The Cure, "Disintegration"), shoegaze in 1991 (Slowdive, "Just For A Day"), indie rock in the years between 1991 and 1994. In the period between 1994 and 1997 I had got a conversion towards techno-progressive and acid house italian movements, in clubs like Musikò, Aida, Gilda in Jesolo-Venice. Since the end of the '90es I began to listened to new electronica and EBM.
I am a free-lance journalist since 1997 and a DJ since 1998. I write for ROCKERILLA, the historical magazine of alternative music, new wave, indie rock and electro since 2001, and for :RITUAL:, the electro-goth italian magazine, since 2002.
I occasionally play new wave, 80'es, electro, EBM, goth, dark, indie rock, alternative, industrial, ambient, new romantic, shoegaze.
In the last years (2002-2005) I worked, together with the staff of "NIGHT BREEZE" of Vicenza and "JAM CLUB" of Venice, to organize some wonderful concerts such as those of Sad Lovers And Giants, Ikon, In The Nursery, Red Lorry Yellow Lorry, Brighter Death Now+Raison D'Etre+Deutsch Nepal, Genocide Organ, And Also The Trees, Garbo, Krisma, All My Faith Lost, Clan Of Xymox, Tarwater, and many others.
I love the alternative side of life. I adore the music, night, the sadness, the past, the football, driving at night in my Volvo listening to good music, talking with girls, believing in the existence of alien cultures, honest people... Life is so obscene, so why don't try to have something better?
Who I'd like to meet: People who love the music most of all, open minded people.
Boys and girls who considere Music as the most important thing on Earth... I AM INTERESTED TO GET IN TOUCH WITH PEOPLE INVOLVED WITH NEW WAVE, POST PUNK, GOTH, EBM, ELECTRO, INDUSTRIAL, AMBIENT, SHOEGAZE,DREAMPOP, NEOFOLK, but I adore even INDIE ROCK, INDIE POP, BRIT POP, MADCHESTER SOUND, ELECTROCLASH, SOME TRANCE AND TECH-HOUSE MUSIC, TRIP-HOP, NEW ELECTRONICA, EXPERIMENTAL, A LITTLE OF NU RAVE MOVEMENT...

Specimen will bring their special brand of glam mayhem, The Batcave to London again.
After last year’s wildly-successful 25th anniversary Batcave event, The Batcave returns to its original spawning ground of London’s West End on Sunday July 19 for another night of blasphemy, lechery and blood.
Specimen (Fresh from a fantastic show at Leipzig’s Waves Gotik festival), the original Batcave instigators will headline the lurid frolics at the Embassy Club, (29 Old Burlington St, London W1S3AP) Also on the bill are original Batcavers Sexbeat, with DJs Hamish and Cavey Nick, cavorting from decks to decadence with the usual brutal, trouser-dropping surprises & suitably confronting & barbaric entertainment.
The 2009 Batcave will feature installations from exciting new artists of the ‘Dark London Underground’ and visuals from the upcoming ‘Welcome To The Batcave’ book, along with this year’s bitcrushed message from the creature in t
