BIOGRAPHY: CHICONE

CHICONE'S INTEREST IN ELECTRONIC MUSIC GOES BACK TO THE EARLY 90'S. SOON THEN, HE REALISED THAT COMMERCIAL MUSIC WAS NOT GOING TO BE ON HIS RECORD SHELVES.

FOR MANY YEARS, HE HAD ALWAYS HAD IN MIND TO MAKE A MOVE TO LONDON. HIS FIRST CONTACT WITH THIS CITY WAS IN THE YEAR 1998, WHEN HE SPENT A FEW MONTHS DISCOVERING ITS RAVE AND CLUBBING SCENE. IN THE SUMMER OF 2001 HE DEFINITIVELY MOVED WITH KIKE NEVES TO TUFNELL PARK, NORTH LONDON. THAT WAS THE MOMENT MADZMUSIC WAS BORN.

THROUGH HIS MUSICAL JOURNEY, WHICH GOES FROM HIS WORK AT JUNO RECORDS AS A MUSIC EXPERT TO PLAYING AT SOME OF THE BEST CLUBS IN LONDON, CHICONE HAS DEVELOPED AN EXQUISITE MUSICAL TASTE. HIS SETS CAN BE DEFINED AS A FUSION OF MINIMAL TECHNO AND TECH HOUSE, ALWAYS GIVING PRIORITY TO THE DANCE FLOOR.

ON THE PRODUCTION SIDE, CHICONE HAS BEEN CREATING HIS OWN MUSIC FOR MORE THAN FIVE YEARS AND IS FULLY INVOLVED NOWADAYS. A MASTER DEGREE IN DIGITAL MUSIC PROCESSING SUPPORT HIS WORK, WHICH WILL BE SOON RELEASED ON DIGITAL LABELS.
