Since moving to the Dutch capital in 2013, Alessandro Costa - aka ADEZ - has been stunned by the city's lively scene and decided to leave a mark. Fusing the typical classy Italian touch and the constant research for funky & groovy minimal house beats, ADEZ has been making waves with releases on Tamango Records, elrow Limited, Deeperfect, and Reecords, among others.

Performances at venues like Shelter, Colorado Charlie, and Frieda's Buxe in Zurich have identified him as a one-to-watch if you're familiar with the current minimal-house sound, with his tracks played all around the world by heavyweight DJs including Jamie Jones, Yaya, Waff, and Archie Hamilton, among others. From London to Edinburgh, Madrid to Zurich, and across Dutch cities like Amsterdam and Rotterdam, the Italian has left his mark on some of the sickest European stages, and he's ready to pursue his dream more and more.

Manuel, a.k.a. Itoh, is a dj and producer from Italy.

Self-taught on all fronts: he started to listen the most popular djs when he was only a child. He get very soon into punk, rock, crossover, metal, ska, reggae, and started to follow some local bands as sound engineer. The interest in electronic music develops in the years ahead in an increasing intensity, approaching more techno, house, trance, psy, hardtek, drum'n bass, minimal, and everything dance music could offer, with special attraction for sounds and rhythms of the underground music. At 19, he get his first dj console (2 pioneer cdj 200 and a 4 channel mixer Behringer), so he could improve his practice as mixing techniques and to start to spread his musical selection to pubs and discos in Biella. In 2010 he played in the most important club, the Koko Club: that was a brilliant opportunity to perform in gigs with guests like Linea 77, Davide Van De Sfroos, and Divina to mention some. In the next year, he made his choice for electronic music and focus his energies on it.
On January 2011 he started to perform with "The Goodfells", duo that diffuse sounds of drum'n bass, dubstep, breaks, glitch hop, and other genres almost unknown in the city. He play in many clubs (he's engaged for the winter season 2012/2013 at Spritz Club) and in parties, meeting lot of local artists with the same passion for bass music.
On summer 2013 he proceeded to play with Traktor and a pair of old turntables, combining the old school to the new technologies. During the same period, with three friends he launched Medicus, a great organization with the aim of organize parties where the sounds alternatives are highest than the usual commercial music in town.
 Hence Itoh, dj thirsty of underground music, that founded his muse in the drum 'n' bass, where he always gives his best. Even if still a rookie, the hours spent on his turntables are many, trying to improve and get new inspirations for his sets
