London based rico casazza, dj/ producer, has a wide musical background.
London and Europe have played host to Rico's strong and deep music of good quality techno/house. Casazza has put a firm stamp on the scene over recent years with his own music.
Since his move to London in 2001, he's gained some residencies.
Running since 2006 "Ninezeronine", a techno/house/electronica night at the cafe1001, London. Every 2nd friday of the month.
He played in many London clubs: Fabric, Cafe1001, The egg, Crucifix lane, Turnmills, Russian bar, and many other London venues.

Since 2007 he has released Electronic music on techno/house record labels such as: Archipel, Wavetec, Stock 5, Soma records, Eintakt, Serialism, Slant records, Apparel music, Blurred Vision, and his own label: Release Sustain.
In 2009 he released his first album: "A mother love" for chillout/ambient record label, Bonzai records. A downtempo, broken beat album.
Rico's music has a variable style, from deep and minimal led techno to melancholic and beautifully crafted ambient moods. Rico's musical textures span across genres – never putting themselves into a definitive place.
Turning to his house/techno works, they're dark and moody, with a heavy soul and groove concept.
Successions of complex sampling weave their way through a mind tripping base of crunchy and mind driven groove.
Whilst retaining a melodic listening experience rare within the walls of 'techno'.
2009 also saw Rico Casazza start in collaboration with Gabbi Lopez & Altino aka kid am
'Release Sustain', a digital record label focusing on new skool techno/house.
