His first encounter with the mixer came at just 16 years old. Raised within the late ’90s clubber culture, he made his debut as a minimalist in the Italian electronic scene. Over time, music evolved, and he evolved with it. In 2023 he released his first EP Basic, and the following year he founded the label @synchronicrecords in Bologna. In 2025 he launched a new project with @minima-records, a label specialized in the distribution of vinyl and digital releases dedicated to a purely minimal sound. From vinyl to DAWs, from drum machines to synthesizers, today Val Urbanbeat explores and experiments with a forward-looking sound, both as a DJ and as a producer.

Synchronic Records was founded in Bologna (Italy) by the DJ/producer and journalist @val_urbanbeat
A project aimed at creating useful spaces to clearly state the idea of electronic music, this extraordinary cultural movement that warms our hearts.
