Italy's Massimo Di Lena, or Massi DL as he is sometimes known, had an explosive debut on Cadenza at the tail end of 2009 with the four track EP 'Gypsytown'.
Since then the Neapolitan artist has been active in the studio releasing cuts on labels such as Claque Musique, Oslo, and Cynosure.
His style is not easy to pinpoint. Whilst his Cadenza EP featured a mixture of dirty Chicago grooves (Raw Track), low-slung percussion (9991 Highway), and synth-driven melodies (Gypsytown), he is also a big fan of classic techno and house - in 2010 he remixed G-Man's notorious 1999 loop techno hit 'Quo Vardis', and he is also known for sampling old house records under his Horatio project, which he runs with Rio Padice.
You can hear some of those themes on Massi DL's Cadenza Source To Cycle podcast. His Cycle mix is primarily driven by synthesizers, that are sometimes electronic and foreboding, at other times they are subtle and melodic. There's a wealth of influences in his mix, including some standout classic house vocal moments, as well as some bubbly techno beats, and one or two dirty thumping kick-bass combos. There's a hefty amount of Chicago rhythms in his mix too, but the nod to the past is always balanced out by a healthy dose of modern digital production trickery.
Cuts by Moodymann, Anthony Shake Shakir, N.Y. House'n Authority and Theo Parrish contrast quite wonderfully with basement friendly jams from Bass Clef and Fcl VS Vfb, and acid Warp madness from Africa Hitech. There's a certain high brow alternative electronic feel to his set.
Massi DL's Source mix is enlightening too, with its journey through downtempo, soulful pop, funk, and euphoric electronica. His mix includes cuts from Modeselektor, A Tribe Called Quest, Mr Scruff, Prefuse, Fatima, J Dilla and Liquid Liquid.
