Evolution (Sep 15, 2008) is my first album. The recording sessions lasted from March to August 2008. I worked on this record during the breaks from touring with my band Arcadia. My 2nd solo album is called Codex Magika and was produced on Sep 18, 2012. The Codex Videos was released on Sep 18, 2013. Watch some clips here. The Art of Complications is out since Jan 10, 2016. The next album, The Silent Watcher, was released on Nov 4, 2018. My latest album, « V », is out since Apr 10, 2022.
Here we go with the first cover song in a long time.
This week Metallica are gonna release a new remastered version of their metal masterpiece "Master of Puppets" so I decided to pay a tribute to a band that had a strong influence on my playing in the early days, playing a full version of "Master".
Neither the less this video is representing for me the start of an awesome collaboration with Rigbusters Kemper Profiles. In January 2018 we are in fact releasing a new pack with all my signature and personal Kemper profiles and presets, made by your truly from the scratch.
On this video I used a couple of profiles of Rigbusters from their latest pack: Friedman BE-100 amp.
Finally « Infinity », first full length album of duo « Scopelliti/Davidsen » is released.
You can stream it from all the main music services on the Internet and you can download it from Bandcamp.
The music can be defined as the perfect mix between "Modern Classical Music" and "Instrumental Prog Metal".
The album has been produced, engineered and mixed/mastered by yours truly.
Also it won't take long until my next solo album will be released, in fact it has already been written and recorded this summer (actually the writing process started 2 years ago, even though a couple of tracks were written in 2020.
Other artists on the bill: Tosin Abasi, Nick Johnston, Phil X, Matteo Mancuso, Tom Quayle, Nita Strauss, and more...
Two weeks later I will be flying to China for "Music China 2024" playing for Inspiria Guitars and Hotone Audio (performance time schedule coming soon).
