Biografie Mauro Picotto

Mauro Picotto s-a nascut la 25 decembrie 1966, traieste la Torino, Italia si este DJ, producator si remixer. Si-a inceput cariera muzicala ca DJ in anii '80, dar acum il poti gasi aproape in fiecare zi in studio, mixand si producand muzica. La ora actuala este unul din cei mai buni producatori din Italia. Acum lucreaza pentru label-ul italian Media Records si de asemenea este managerul de la BXR Label. Cea mai buna colaborare a fost cu alt foarte cunoscut producator italian, Mario Piu. Printre multele proiecte ale celor doi se numara si hit-ul aparut in 1999: Communication. In 2000 a primit, pentru a doua oara consecutiv, 4 nominalizari la German Dance Awards si a castigat 3 premii, cele pentru Best International DJ, Best Producer si pentru single-ul Komodo ca fiind hit-ul radio al anului. Daca tot a venit vorba de piesele sale de succes, sa mai amintim aici Bakerloo Symphony, Lizard, Pulsar, Pegasus, Proximus si bineinteles, Iguana. Dupa aceste succese, a venit, logic, un dublu album continand piese mai vechi, dar si unele noi. Dintre acestea din urma s-a remarcat Like This Like That care a cucerit si ea topurile. Noul sau album, The Others, aparut in 2002, include 12 piese si remixuri noi fantastice, pe care Picotto le-a testat inainte cu cateva luni pe tot globul pentru a observa reactia publicului. Indiferent daca stilul este hard house, trance, techno sau o combinatie a celor trei, pentru Picotto nu conteaza, piesele lui sunt intotdeauna pline de energie. Primul single extras de pe acest album se numeste Back To Cali si deja se afla in playlist-urile majoritatii DJ-ilor. Auto-proclamat drept workaholic, Picotto (aka The Lizard Man) nu concepe viata sa fara a face tot timpul ce stie: muzica, indiferent daca este DJ, remixer, producator sau manager.
