Lorenzo Giannecchini started making music in 1986 as guitar player and singer in a punk band in Viareggio, a small town on the seaside of Tuscany. Most of his music influences were from the US indie scene of that time, also crossover and hip-hop, but later on he came in touch with a new thing coming from the Chicago area. It was based almost completely on samples, produced with a basic equipment at home and so called house music.In 1993 Lorenzo moved to London attracted by the UK acid-house and jungle scene. He wanted to make experience and give a break to song-related music; he started composing new atmospheres made just of electronic beats and sounds.He teamed up with Charlie Boskic (ecletic figure and former bass player of the legendary 70’s band Silver Convention) working in a recording studio and starting his experience as music producer. Many projects followed like the drum’n’bass project with the african singer Anna Mwale who at that time had a contract with Sony Music. He also found some studio time to work on his own ideas and produced his first demo.This took Lorenzo in touch with top Italian dj/producers Father of Sounds who asked him to remix one of their tracks (Sun Brothers - Tell Me What) Lorenzo’s first work to be released on the italian label DWA owned by legedary producer Roberto Zanetti.
It was 1997. Lorenzo came in touch with some other important labels such as Botchit’n’Scarper and Kingsize Records and this led him to set up his first set as a DJ. The first important festival he played was “Dentro la Galassia” in 1999 in Italy where he opened the night to Kingsize’s Meat Katie and Outcast.Since then he has never stopped, he now runs a recording studio and produce music under many different names such as Freaky Disco on Edel Records or as producer of Lisa Brown on Time Records. His singles have been succesfully released and licensed to UK, France, Germany, Spain, Benelux, Australia and South Africa and he is also very dedicated to his last projects as Blake, as Monobros with DJ Giorgio Giordano, and Frogsnatcher with DJ Zak Frost.These many projects keep Lorenzo very busy in his studio and also took him to work for some of the most interesting dance labels in Europe. Time and Edel as already mentioned above, but also Bini & Martini’s Ocean Trax for Monobros, Paul Murphy’s Afro Art for Frogsnatcher and an exclusive distribution deal with Level One for the next Blake’s music.As Frogsnatcher Lorenzo and Zak had recently remixed the single “Husband” by Ashley Slater (formerly member of Freak Power along with Fat Boy Slim).
