With the urge to design music for the clubs of tomorrow, in late 2013 MACE started to make waves in the international scene with his solo project, blurring the lines between hip hop, futuristic beats and sub-driven club music.
He released several singles on influential imprints (Plastician’s Terrorhythm, Main Course, Crookers’ Ciao Recs and Starkey’s Seclusiasis), got different airplays on Diplo and Friends' show (Radio BBC1) and Apple Beats1 radio and praises from tastemaker blogs (Complex, Noisey, Mixmag, NestHQ, Hip Hop DX, Do Androids Dance) and international Dj’s worldwide.
His Years & Years remix just clocked up ten million plays on Youtube and Beatport launched a remix competition for his single “Touch me” after the heavy support it got on Apple Beats1 Radio. Amongst his collaborations we can list Chicago drill rappers Sasha Go Hard and CDOT Honcho, featured on two futuristic hip hop bangers.
This path led MACE to start touring on his own in Australia, Japan and Europe and to a monthly residency from 2016 on Tokyo radio Block.fm, one of the most influential establishments for underground electronic music in Japan.
But MACE is no stranger to worldwide touring: as producer and co-founder of the Turbofunk outfit RESET! he travelled the globe making kidz dance from the booth of sweaty clubs, big stages and festivals in Uk, Australia, Asia and Europe; released dance music on some of the world's finest labels (Sony, Mad Decent, Cheap Thrills, Southern Fried) and crafted official remixes for the likes of Fatboy Slim, Bingo Players, Cassius, Robyn, Audio Bullys, Hervè, Alex Metric and many more, not to mention their monthly residency in Milano that runs since 2007 and draws an average of 2000 clubbers each time.
He's also one of the most on-demand Hip Hop producers in Italy: his debut album in 2003 (La Crème) is considered an Italian underground milestone and to date he released more than 200 songs working with all the biggest names in the country. His productions are featured in several certified gold albums, Italian Top10 records and two triple-platinum albums.
Besides his constant touring and studio activity, he founded a new club night to fulfill his aestetichal vision of clubbing: RRRIOT, that quickly became one of the best HipHop/Bass party in Milan with their loyal crowd and strong, dark visual identity.
