Born under a clear blue sky in July, in a small village nestled in nature, Valentino spent his childhood immersed in a deep love for the piano. Encouraged by his family, he began formal music lessons at the age of six.
His fascination with electronic music began early. One day, while rummaging through drawers in search of hidden treasures, he stumbled upon a mysterious cassette tape. Curious, he placed it in the tape deck and pressed play. What followed was a revelation—an audio voyage through otherworldly sounds, hypnotic melodies, and unfamiliar instruments. That cassette, Franco Battiato’s Noah’s Ark, became his gateway to a world that felt instantly like home.
At ten, with his parents’ continued support, Valentino acquired his first synthesizer. It opened the door to the universe of musical synthesis. Soon after came the personal computer—at a time when space travel and flying cars were still dreams within reach, and technology felt like the key to making them real.
Over the years, Valentino explored countless tools—synths, sequencers, drum machines, and workstations—each helping him grow as a producer and deepen his understanding of sound. Decades later, he continues to create, study, and experiment with the same passion and curiosity that first sparked his journey.
Beyond music, Valentino is an avid traveler and reader. Two dreams remain close to his heart: composing scores for film and playing electric bass in a punk band.
