PDX

PDX WAS BORN IN UDINE (NORTH ITALY) ON 29 JUNE 1984. IN 1998, HEAVILY INFLUENCED BY THE 'FRENCH TOUCH', HE RECORDED HIS FIRST SONG USING ONLY HIS PC AND SEVERAL MUSIC SOFTWARES. SO HE LEARNED SAMPLING AND FILTERING TECHNIQUES SIDE BY SIDE TO SYNTHESIZERS AND DRUM MACHINES. HE ALSO LEARNED VOCODER'S METHODS USING HIS VOICE. FEW YEARS LATER, IN 2001, HE TOOK PART IN A REMIX CONTEST CALLED "DARKEST HOUR", FINISHED IN FOURTH POSITION. AN IMPORTANT THING TO UNDERSTAND HIS SOUND IS PDX IS NOT A DANCE MUSIC PURIST; HIS MUSIC IS INFLUENCED AS MUCH BY ROCK AND HIP HOP MUSIC AS BY HOUSE AND TECHNO PIONEERS SUCH AS LAURENT GARNIER. THERE IS ALSO A STRONG OLD-STYLE DISCO STREAK RUNNING THROUGH HIS WORKS. IN 2006 HE RECORDED SOME LIVE SETS FOR LOCAL AND INTERNET RADIOS, LEARNING MIXING TECHNIQUES USING MUSIC SOFTWARE. IN 2007 HE DECIDED TO SHARE HIS CREATIONS USING INTERNET MEDIAS AND AT THE SAME TIME HE STARTED DJING IN PARTYS. WELL APPRECIATED IS HIS MUSIC SELECTION UNINFLUENCED BY COMMERCIAL MUSIC. HE ALSO RELEASED HIS FIRST OFFICIAL REMIX FOR THE INDIE ROCK BAND 'TRABANT' (MOSCOW). IN 2008 HE RELEASED TWO NEW SINGLES AS SAAVALON & GLERIE' AND IS WORKING TO SEVERAL REMIX PROJECTS FOR MUSICIANS ACROSS THE EUROPE.
