This started just as I was playing around with sounds and it ended up being a proper project, it was not meant to be.

Coin Coin Things (written, performed and mixed by Zbat)

I was a drummer in this band. This is a recording from 2008, and the original mix was from Francois Baurin and was tracked live. 

I re-mixed it using the multi-tracks.

My Father Never Loved Me (by Trafficker, mixed by Zbat)

Take It Off (by Neon Hornet, mixed by Zbat)

This track is used with permission by District 7and URM Academy. The original production was done by Vasco Ramos, mix was done by Marco Cipriano. This new mix is an unofficial version and not on the actual release.

The Place We Used To Call Home (by District 7, mixed by Zbat)

I go by many names... Some call me "Zbat", some call me "Coin Coin", some call me "Il Batterista"...

I'm a musician at heart, a songwriter, an arranger, a music lover generally speaking. My experience in music has grown over decades of a relentless obsession.

I've worn many hats, from musician (drums, guitar, bass, wannabe pianist) to songwriter, singer, arranger, producer.

I've become an engineer out of necessity first (I wanted to record my band) but this led me to opening a whole new side of music which has since then become a passion of mine. After years of experience in the studio, I've decided to offer my services as a freelancer.

Not going to lie, I'm into Rock And Roll, it's my safe place, my family, my gig. But I mean that in a very wide sense, I believe in true performance, wildness, spontaneity and heart.

I have spent my whole life discovering new artists: I've been checking out new bands in small clubs on a daily basis, tracking them online (from the good old myspace days to Spotify or Bandcamp today). 

I know what good sounds like.​
