Founder and A&R of @lifeanddeath, Manfredi Romano grew up tour-managing punk bands and organizing left-field music events in Italy around the turn of the Millennium. Having completed his studies in computer science at the University of Pisa, Manfredi went on to form DAZE, Italy’s first booking agency solely devoted to electronic music. Drawing on two decades of experience behind the scenes, Romano shifted focus  in 2010, establishing himself as a DJ in his own right. 

As a performer, Tennis valiantly showcases an astute ability to create intimacy in even the vastest of gatherings. As a respected producer, Romano consistently channels his past relationships with post-rock luminaries such as Godspeed You! Black Emperor, Tortoise and Fugazi into intricately-synthesised electronic constellations. Known for his Artist Management capabilities is responsible for breaking artists like Tale of Us, Mind Against and Carlita.

Fine chef and restaurant owner, Tennis splits his time between Paris and Miami, where he enjoys riding motorbikes, collecting vintage action-figures and building upon his vinyl record collection - which now numbers over eleven-thousand strong.

The common thread that links everyone involved in Life and Death is something beyond just their specific talents. 

Founded in 2010 as an Italian record label and event brand, Manfredi Romano’s Life and Death curates soulful dance music with a post-rock aesthetic.

Luigi Orofino was born in Enna, in the very centre of Sicily. Despite being aware of his special knack for music, he went through plenty of experiences and several jobs. He worked as an electrician in Bolzano working outdoors at -17°C, as well as a fashion manager in Bologna, passing through the experience of the mushroom grower in Sicily. 
In 2016 he moved to Ortigia island, in Siracusa, where he met Erlend Øye, Marco Castello, Stefano Ortisi and other musicians. With them he can eventually give way to his strong music calling, deepening his self-taught knowledge of the cavaquinho, the king instrument of Brazilian music, which he is very fond of.
In 2018, along with Castello and Ortisi, he accompanied Erlend Øye on his south american tour. It’s during that trip that La Comitiva project took shape. Since then the four of them have been relentlessly on tour all over the world for a couple of years.
During the pandemic, in 2020, Luigi devotes himself to a brand-new music project. One year later, in October 2021, he recorded his first song “Amsterdam”, with other fellow musicians. In the same year this song goes under the skilful hands of Dj Tennis that makes an inspired remix of the track.
