About The Artist:

Aron Airaghi a.k.a. Aquadrop

(Eight:FX Recordings – Trenchant Dubs – Abstract Logic Recordings)

Aquadrop is a dj and composer from Milan, Italy. Encouraged by his father’s passion for music and records he began collecting, mixing, and experimenting with vinyl. As a young aspiring musician, he learned to play the piano, flute and eventually taught himself how to scratch. After refining his mixing and mastering technique, he founded a funky-jazz quintet called “The Natural 6” in 2001. The band was made up of Luigi Lavermicocca (contrabass), Filippo Cozzi (sax), Romeo Velluto (guitar) and John Wilson of East Milan (voice). The band was honored to be two time winners of the Italian “Lifegate Radio Music Starter” for exceptional work on their songs. In 2004 Aquadrop was asked to select the music for the Fabio Novembre exhibition at the “Salone Internazionale del Mobile di Milano”. During that same year his composition “The Salt Dance” was picked by John Altman as the winning track of the European award “In the Name of Salt”, organized by Bettina Werner.

He is currently working as the sound designer for “Good 50X70”, which is an international design exhibition. He has held this position since 2005. He also works as curator, composer and dj with “Triennale di Milano”, “Palazzo Reale di Milano”, “Fondazione Corriere della Sera”, “Custo Barcelona”, “Illy”, “Moroso” and “Connie Douglas”. His previously released discography includes his self-titled “Aquadrop EP”, which is out now on Eight:FX Recordings. This E.P. has received support from many of the influential dj’s and radio stations in the scene.

About This Release:

Aquadrop comes at you from all angles on the Super Modified EP.  Another boundary pushing, and genre blurring release on Abstract Logic Recordings.  Aquadrop blends classical, minimal, dubstep, breaks, house, and hip hop to make this spectacular collage of sound and feeling.  Super clean production, entrancing tones and complex rhythmic structures make this “musicians music.”  Aquadrop pulled tones from gear like Nord Electro 3, Formanta Polivoks, and an old Korg to make these tunes.    A real head will be able to appreciate the quality of work put into this project.  Definitely worth getting your hands on!!
