Riccardo Ferri

about

Riccardo Ferri was born in Florence in 1975. Classically trained on the piano until the age of sixteen, this gave Ricky his first eager taste of music. He first became attracted to electronic music at the age of twelve, when he was inspired by Pump up the Volume and Electrica Salsa. This was set to change his life completely, giving him a taste for the kind of music that would lead him to where he is today. Gianni Agrey Experimental EP created in 1994 on Magnetik Records was Riccardos first dance production. Without the necessary computer equipment, Riccardo used only keyboards and samplers to create a record that was a club hit in Italy and spurned him on for more. Following this release and after having completed his studies in electronics, Riccardo began working with his mentor Stefano (Sandy) Dian in a studio in Vicenza. This was an important year in learning how to use machines and produce records as Riccardo had never used a computer before, except for a VIC20 and C64 when he was very young. Riccardo worked here on releases for Media Records, his first being Mas Experience with Mario Più, which had a great club reaction. His music attracted the attention of Mauro Picotto, who loved his work and immediately asked him to join him in Media Records, concentrating on a harder concept. His arrival in 1996 convinced Media to release more underground tracks. The first record, Mauro Picotto The Test (UND 001), a techno bass-line track, was created for the new label Undergro
