Adriano Canzian
Adriano was born in 1973 in Pieve di Soligo, near Treviso.
He studied sculpture and graphic art and attended the Accademia Di Belle Arti in Rome.
He soon started painting and he lived as an artist, performing in many galleries in Rome, London and Paris.
During that period, his art mainly represented Christian icons reviewed in technological shade, and psychotropic-drugs famous brands.
Electro music has always been a great passion of him, since he was a child. When he was 17 he used to run away from home to Movida, a
famous club in Jesolo where he would dance EBM and acid house till the sunrise. He already knew he would have produced that kind of
music, sooner or later.
What about now? He says:
“I like to influence the environment around me with my music, my colours and my style. I like the 80’s glamour style mixed up with punk
taste. I love fashion, especially when it’s a pure form of art: Alexander Mc Queen and John Galliano are my favourite stylists, because they
create exactly what they want, without respecting any rule. And I consider myself as a nonconformist and free person.”
In 2001 Adriano produced music for a ballet performed in occasion of a party dedicated to Madonna, in Milan for a concert. He worked with
many stylists as a music adviser, and in some cases as a personal composer, as for the outlandish and amazing Holly Krueger.
He lived for 4 years in Paris, where once again he worked with stylists, and enlarged the frequentation of the world’s most trasgressive and
cool clubs.
He’s a strange person, full of energy and colour, but serious and peaceful at the same time.
It was in 2000 when he first decided to open the new millennium with an ambitious musical project, in the not easy field of electro music. It
took two years before he decided to send his work to International DJ Gigolo in Munich. DJ Hell, the label’s founder and boss, immediately
contacted him to propose a five years exclusive contract: Adriano officially became the first and unique Italian producer for the famous
label.
His first single “Macho Boy”, released world-wide in August 2003, went sold-out in many countries after just few days. The single has been
performed during the opening of a Versace Houte Couture parade. Also present in the Givenchy Compilation created for Japan, in Nag
Nag Nag in London, and in Radio Colette in Paris. The single has become a fashion cult worldwide.
After less than ten months International DJ Gigolo proposed his second single “My Boyfriend Is Very Sexy”, reviewed by Italian magazine
Blowup with words that sound more or less like this: “Four electro monsters with body beat jaws. Digital fever. Abrasive shots. Icy
cathedrals of bleeps. Immagine a more futuristic, perverted, and cutting version of Paul Hardcastle and you’ll be near the final result. Think
of Art of Noise in a ghetto version and you’ll be even nearer. Cyberporno trax.”
Adriano played and performed in many occasions with Hell, Pascalidis, Carretta, Moscatello, Fixmer, and others. Actually his accompanied
by two strange creatures, professional actors, named “Miss Love” and “The Poison”, who interact with the music with minimal-porn, chic-
electro-clash choreographies, creating surrealistic and strong atmospheres.
Out in February-March 2005 the debut album “Pornography”, with the related tour, first European and then worldwide.
The album will contain a special track, singed by a world famous trasgressive artist.
Again, the “Best Of Hell” album, out next year, will contain two Adriano’s remixes of “Let no man Jack”, the new single from his spiritual
father DJ Hell.
Adriano is now working on a video art project: “The Adriano Sex Experience Video”, projected during his shows, containing ossessive
porno shots stolen to people who get in contact with Adriano, famous and not. Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
