* Bo Savio * - Italy -

William De Paolis (aka Bo Savio) was born in 1981 in a small city near Venice, in Italy. He has grown up in the digital age, using intuitive software programs like Reason and Ableton to spontaneously express ideas and emotions.
His teenage years were spent playing blues and rock guitar in bands but this always meant compromise and he needed something more than that – something that would allow a purer form of self expression. At the time it was hard to hear good dance music in Italy apart from one or two tracks that crossed over into the clubs he sometimes visited with friends but that was enough to whet his appetite and he immediately got wrapped up in the beats, connecting with the music on a deeper level. He started exploring the electronic medium and became fascinated by how some DJs could apply their own peronal vision to the music, elevating it to an art form. This was exactly the inspiration he needed and he was soon experimenting with loops on his laptop, and buying records ( Plus8, Perlon, Spectral and Minus).
His music has evolved to what it is today: elegant and dark minimal sound, a detailed groove manufactured with strange mad pieces and a visceral sound of low frequencies.
