XXIII Producer, Artistic Director and Musician

Discography (Producer)

The following projects are all works in which the music was entirely created by me. During the collaboration process with the artists, I also take on a strong artistic and creative direction role, working closely with them to shape the overall vision and identity of each project.

LIMINAL TAPES VOL.2, 2024

Liminal Tapes Vol. 2 is the second chapter of a project that explores liminal spaces and the digital aesthetics shaping our modern imagination. Inspired by phenomena such as the Backrooms and weirdcore culture, the album delves into those in-between places we’ve all encountered—physically or mentally—spaces suspended between dream and reality, familiar yet unsettling, filled with an unplaceable nostalgia. Every sound in the record is sourced exclusively from social media platforms, primarily Instagram and YouTube Shorts.

These fragments—echoes of digital memory, empty spaces, and suspended atmospheres—are reconstructed into immersive tracks that feel like a ritual journey through the past. The album confronts what we leave behind in order to fully embrace the future, transforming scattered memories into a cohesive, emotional narrative. Experimental and deeply contemporary, Liminal Tapes Vol. 2 challenges traditional sampling conventions, offering a sonic experience that is both innovative and intimate—an exploration of nostalgia, identity, and the fragmented nature of memory in the digital age.

VIOLE(N)T is a deeply emotional exploration of human intimacy and the powerful contrasts that define our lives. The album moves between light and shadow, capturing the fragile space where happiness and suffering coexist. Through layered soundscapes and expressive melodies, it reflects the complexity of human connection — the tenderness of closeness, the ache of distance, and the intensity of feeling truly alive. Each track feels like a chapter in a personal journey, portraying the beauty found within vulnerability and the strength that emerges from pain. VIOLE(N)T embraces the paradox of life: how joy can be born from struggle, and how even in moments of darkness, there is a quiet pulse of hope. It is not just an album, but an intimate experience — raw, honest, and profoundly human.

Other musical projects

LIMINAL TAPES VOL.1, 2023

Liminal Tapes Vol. 1 by XXIII is the first chapter of a conceptual journey into liminal spaces and digital nostalgia. The project explores the blurred boundaries between reality and memory, physical and virtual worlds, creating a sonic landscape suspended in time. Drawing inspiration from early internet culture, obscure online imagery, and fragmented digital experiences, the album captures the feeling of being “in-between” — between past and present, presence and absence, clarity and distortion. Through experimental production and layered atmospheres, XXIII constructs immersive tracks that feel both intimate and unsettling. Vol. 1 lays the foundation for the Liminal Tapes series, introducing a raw and introspective approach to sampling and sound design. It is a reflection on identity in the digital age — a nostalgic yet forward-looking exploration of how memories, both personal and collective, shape our perception of reality.

LIVE PERFORMANCES

Graduated from the Brera Academy of Fine Arts, he is a musician, music producer, and artistic director. Since the age of 12, he has been collaborating with artists, using various art forms to create professional and fully developed artistic projects.

With over 2 million total streams and more than 200 songs produced, he has built a solid and consistent presence in the music industry. He has opened for internationally renowned artists and performed on some of the most important stages in Italy. Currently, he is based in Japan, continuing to evolve and expand his artistic career on an international level.

In addition to music, I am also a writer, graphic designer, and visual artist. Over the years, I have created paintings and visual works alongside my musical projects, developing a practice that moves freely across different artistic disciplines. My approach is rooted in a 360-degree vision of art: I don’t see sound, visuals, and concept as separate elements, but as interconnected parts of the same creative language. Whether I am producing music, designing visual identities, writing concepts, or creating physical artworks, my goal is always to build cohesive and immersive artistic worlds.

In this constantly updated playlist, you will be able to listen to all the songs I have produced over the years.
