Biography and Notes-
Finnaly, aquietbump released its 10th recordings, "So quiet", and they want to introduce the album to all CocoaMusic readers.
Aquietbump is a indie label based in southern italy launched in 2005. Aqbmp produces multimedia focused on trip-hop, dub, ambient, and hip hop styles. I am a big fan of Aquietbump, not only because all its releases are freely downloadable, but aslo because it attracts talented artists such as Mou, Black Era.
Born in 1976 in the midlands of southern Italy, Paolo Picone aka Peak, started his musical activites in 1991, as a drummer at the age of 15. In 1995 he began to compose electronic music with samplers, drum machines and midi sequencers. He founded the Mou project in 2001, hailed by the press as one of the most important dub'n'bass bands in Italy. One year later Mou started performing live at the main italian alternative clubs and festivals like ArezzoWave, Leoncavallo, Officina99, Agricantus, with a tour numbering over 50 gigs in all italian regions. In 2003 Paolo founded the Soundabbast booking and events agency, setting up events with main international electronic artists as Deadbeat, Burnt Friedman, Retina.it, Rechenzentrum, Marco Messina, etc... Peak was the cofounder of the AquietBump netlabel which was launched in 2005. The "So Quiet" EP is the first release with this solo project, exploring Dub and Landscape Music at same time.
