Massimo Santucci is a musicians and music-producer from the south-Italian mediterranean area that, since the beginning of the 80’s, passionately plays with music. Starting with self-made drums of bucked and pots, he had developed -mid of the 90’s- to a serious Jazz-Rock drummer.
1996 he discovered his passion for electronic music when he launched his very first Electronic Music project Analogue Dream (Psy-Trance) whereby, in the course of 4 years, he completed hundert’s of live performances around Germany and Europe. After a few compilation releases on Shiva Space Technology, Nova Tekk or Nephilim Records, 2002 Massimo released he first full-length album “Massimo Santucci – Al Dente”, on Liquid Audio Soundz. In the same year came also the progressive-trance album of Prototyp, a cooperation with Linus Wessel (Tarsis) and Panajotis Tzanoglou on the German Insolation label. With all this project’s, Massimo toured constantly through Germany, many European cities and partly some overseas gigs between the years 2000 and 2004.
In 2004 he took the challenge to work as music-producer and sound-engineer for the record company OpaqueMusic that, at that time, was responsible for many of the club hits and managed some of the aspiring DJ’s such as Kurd Maverick, Eddie Thoneick, Tube & Berger, Juliet Sikora a.m.m.. Many of the productions like The Mashup Kids – Won’t let you Down, Kurd Maverick – The Rub a.m.m., has been licensed on majors such as Universal Music, EMI, Kontor Records, Superstar Recordings while some others climbed till on top #1 of the UK (LMC vs. U2 – Take me to the Clouds Above) or DDC Charts (Eddie Thonheick & Kurd Maverick – Love Sensation).
Parallel to his work as co-producer and mastering engineer, Massimo has released many of his own production of this different project’s Massimo Santucci, Maxrage, Jackus & Santucci or Tribalism on well-know Labes such as Armin van Buuren’s Armada Music, Ferry Corsten’s Flashover, Robbie Rivera’s Juicy Music a.m.m.. His tracks find place in the set’s or radio shows of biggies like Paul van Dyk, Sander van Doorn, Moguai, Roger Sanchez, Bob Sinclair, Tom Novy a.m.m.. Massimo’s remixes of Racheal Starr’s “Crash” (2006) or Sergio D’Angelo & Andrea Love “Can’t Live Without Your Groove”, were broadcasted on heavy rotation on some important radios incl. BBC Radio 1 Essential Mix, 1Live, Radio Deejay, Radio RTL 105. Crash was 6 weeks in the US Billboard Dance Charts. The track „String of Cesar“ released on Ferry Corsten’s Label, was licensed for Moguai’s Compilation Punx up The Volume on Embassy One, the German Label of Ministry of Sound.
In 2011, Massimo got the great pleasure to work together with one of his idols, the Italian jazz percussionist Tony Esposito, on a remake of his 80s hit Kalimba de Luna. The maxi single came as “Kalimba” on the Dutch dance giant Spinnin’ Records. In 2012, under the project of Maxrage, the album “Powder” came out on Tribal Vision Records, which was the result from a collaboration with another gifted music producer Peter Gun aka Peter Jürgens, which was immediately followed by a small Mexico tour.
In the same time he startet a group of Labels to release all the tracks he produced in the last months. The debut Release Flowquency on the same named label was played over a few weeks on 1Live Radio by Moguai and Licensed on the Compilation MTV Mobile Beats presented during the the same named Festival in Cologne Germany. Recently he had a small comeback with his 1st project Analogue Dream releasing around 10 Tracks and an album that include a bunch of 1997 productions on DAT Tape. Analogue Dream absolved a dozen of Live Acts but Massimo is going now back to his Studio to bring some modern melodic Techno & House tunes in the very near future.
