I create original music, exclusive beats and custom sounds. I take care of the graphic aspect of my productions to communicate their identity through a coherent aesthetic style.
I began my musical journey in 1995 as Dj Gino Tonico and then beatmaker in an experimental Hip-Hop duo, immersed between vinyls and samplers.
In the 2000s I founded CafeAudio with Bob Rifo of The Bloody Beetroots, a Trip-Hop / Drum & Bass project, and made up an R&B/Funk project with guitarist Lino Brotto. In 2009, Gino Tonico’s remix of Nina Simone was hailed by British comedian Marcus Brigstocke as “a slice of sacrilegious excellence”.
In the 2010s I produced my first concept album under the pseudonym Abscience, co-produced The White Screamed Shout and founded the label Echoscope Records, to compose electronic music for images with other artists.
In the 2020s I partecipated to the foundation of a music production studio called Bottega Sonora.
