db Artists agency was created in 2006 by idriss D.
The main goal, beside actively booking international artists, was to break into Italys’ nightlife and party culture by backing up new and upcoming talents and providing them with large-scale dj tours and studio help on the production side.
Beginning its collaboration with Freak’n’Chic label, T Agency and Orbeat Bookings, db Artists soon established itself among the a-list of Italian electronic music managements, becoming in a short time the exclusive partner for Clonk and Minus artists, and more recently by representing Cadenza, the most acclaimed label nowadays, lead by renowned stellar dj Lucien Nicolet (Luciano).
db Artist and its team of like minded enthusiasts are constantly evolving and challenging themselves to find new opportunities and looking forward to finding great people to work with, inspired by their shared love of techno beats and house grooves. This unconditional passion and drive lead the two friends to start a sister label called db Artists Musique, which is known for its eclectic and diverse style, showcasing brand new producers next to well-known artists such as Arnaud Le Texier and Fabrizio Maurizi himself.
db Artists plays an important role in selecting djs for Italy’s famed clubs like Cocoricò Riccione, Amnesia Milano, Area Sassuolo, Il Muretto, Guendalina, Bizzarro, Tag and Fresh’n’Fruit.
Over the last years, it has promoted Cadenza Vagabundos and has organized massive events featuring Luciano and his crew of unconventional artists and djs, drawing much attention and widespread recognition

Alessandro Cortini is an Italian musician, producer, composer, and instrument builder. 

Cortini is one of the foremost figures of contemporary electronic music, best known for his haunting, atmospheric work. Alongside being a longstanding member of Nine Inch Nails, he is highly prolific and has released a steady stream of his own heady music on luminary labels including Mute, Hospital, and Important Records for the past decade. Throughout his shadowy rise to fame, he has collaborated with the likes of Lawrence English, Daniel Avery and Merzbow (to name a few). Balancing dark ambience with smokey, pulsing rhythms, his compositions are perfectly restrained, textured and mesmeric. 

Cortini was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2020 through his work with Nine Inch Nails, making history as the only Italian musician to have ever been honored with this recognition. 

In 2021, in collaboration with boutique synth builders Make Noise, Cortini released his own, custom-designed, semi-modular synth, “Strega” (Italian for ‘witch’). That same year, he used Strega to build his latest full length, Scuro Chiaro [Mute], which Pitchfork described as “pitched somewhere between purgatory and the planetarium ... consistently managing to thrill and surprise”. 

In addition to years of extensive worldwide touring, Cortini has also soundtracked fashion shows including Alexander McQueen, Dior, and several of Fendi’s presentations. In 2022, he exhibited a high-concept audio installation called “Nati Infiniti” for Sonar 2022 at Museu de Lisboa’s “Fábrica de Moagem.” A live version of “Nati Infiniti” is set to debut at Berlin Atonal in 2023.

Alessandro Cortini’s music has been licensed for use in television, film and documentaries, games, and commercials, including FX’s hit show The Bear, “Thank You Very Much” a documentary about Andy Kaufman, Samsung, BMW, Sony, and Netflix. Remixes have also been a part of Cortini’s identity – remixing the likes of Depeche Mode to Mogwai to Death Cab For Cutie, Yann Tiersen to Vatican Shadow, and more between and beyond.
