KAPPY FROM ITALY
Fri, January 08, 2010 
Claudio Cappello aka "Kappy" is a producer/remixer from Torino (Italy). With his remixes ending up among the top entries more than once, participating in remix contests definitely increased Claudio's visibility on the web. Kappy was not only selected as one of the top-5 remixers in both our Dead Confederate remix competition and the remix contest we had with Empire State Human (Featuring Kraftwerk's Wolfgang Flür), but also ended high in the ranks with his Kid Conga and Pon De Floor remixes at other contests. His remix for Almamegretta's track What Have You Done got included on the remix EP. "I do love swing sounds plus 8-bit crispy like Nintendo (NES) and I am a deep voice-slicing follower." In addition to Kappy's MySpace you can find Claudio's productions on Fairtilizer and his dubstep profile at MySpace. And it won't be long before his own tracks will be out on No.Mad Records.
