Minimono Live!
(Bosconi, Oslo - IT)
Minimono was born in Florence in 1997 as a multimedia project involving experimentation through music
installations, graphic design and theater performances. Only later, in 2002 when dj Fabio Della Torre
met rock&roll drummer and electronic producer Ennio Colaci, Minimono became an exclusive and passionate
music project. Their intent was melting their personal music experiences into a fresh techno productions
with minimal experiments, still keeping a very pleasant funky house touch
and combining dancefloor functionality with emphasis on melody and mood. Minimono’s unconditioned
effort to support and develop the local electronic scene eventually grabbed the attention of the hometown’s
legendary Tenax Club and its respective label, Tenax Records.After contributing with a powerful
track and ep's on the Parisian Telegraph Records, minimono released also on other labels labels such
as Tuningspork, Ethique, Safari Electronique, Loveletters From Oslo. Their liveset has struck people’s
attention for its dynamism, richness of electronic textures and from the duo's ability to manipulate on action
a wide range of samples.

Africa", released in 2008 on Cecille Records. Many of his records can be found in the record bags of

Fabio Della Torre is the founder of Bosconi records with his friend Ennio Colaci, together producing the
project Minimono. Fabio is today a central figure in the evolution of electronic music in Italy, always bringing
freshness and innovation, whether he is performing live with Ennio, or spinning records. Raised in
an ideal family environment where his dad fed him with classical music, Fabio started learning piano at
an early age. However, as he entered the rebel teenage era he got into drums and rock music, playing
with local alternative bands. In 1995, introduced to electronic music, captured by the dj culture, Fabio
bought turntables and began his adventure as disc jockey. Short after that he inaugurated ‘Mint’, a night
at the prestigious Tenax club in Florenz, whose music policy focused on experimental techno. Thank to
his studies in mechanic engineering, he moved to Berlin in 2000-2001. After witnessing the boom of German
labels like BpitchControl and Poker Flat, fascinated by new electronic sounds, Fabio returned to
Florenz and founded BerlinMitteGroup collective, promoting the ‘Berlin-Electro’ weekly party at Florenz
Ex-Mud club. The season 2002-2003 was very important for him, becaming resident at Ex-Mud and part
of RedBullHomeGroove dj team. In that period he started playing alongside with artists like Ellen Allien,
Luomo, Sasha Funke, Crane A.K and others. Further and important developments of his artistic profile
came in 2004-05, when he founded the night called ‘Werk’ in Florenz, supporting some of the biggest
representatives in the innovative techno/house scene, international names such as Jay Haze, Mathew
Johnson, Luciano, Krikor and majesty Daniel Bell. In the same season Fabio started the collaboration
with electronic producer Ennio Colaci, forming the project MINIMONO. In 2005-06, he released with David

releasing for Tenax, Telegraph, Tuningspork, Ethique and Loveletters from Oslo. More recent is his collaboration
with his firend Mattako to the project Quitèfrut with releases on telegraph and Bosconi. Cultivating
a 360° vision of German and international dance sound, Fabio has developed a dj style where
electronics meets dub techno,where house and funky grooves blend together, shaping a deep and often
unpredictable atmosphere, changing at a surprising speed through precise and powerful mixes. Production
wise, while Minimono present a funky and musical spirit, Fabio Della Torre focuses more on electronic
techno productions, as well as deep and welcoming sound.
