Davide Del Vecchio is an artist without schemes, who do not like to be catalogued into a specific genre of music His style and career based on an attentive and accurate musical research don't follow any scheme or any particular genre, because, as he says "You don't judge the skills of a dj according to the genre he proposes, but only according to the vibe he's able to create on the dancefloor, trying to understand the right moment to drop that right tune that will make people explode."
Davide in London, imposes immediately his unique DJ set, becoming resident DJ in one of the most important clubs in the British capital the famous Egg where he was often asked to play from the first to 'last record what he loves to do so that he can express himself better, during the many hours.
