Playing music in his teens at house parties made him realize how much he loves making people dance. But it wasn't just that. Electronic music really allowed him to exploit his drive for experimentation, with endless possibilities, letting his creativity run wild. Performing regularly in different venues in Italy, he became a resident in the famous Fresh N Fruit club in Padova. This was followed by the launch of his own night called Nightwave in Vicenza. Thirsty for more and with an increasing number of international bookings coming in, he made the bold decision to move to Tokyo, where he spent 3 year and held a residence in the Mojos club. The former Producer has played gigs all over the world, from Manchester to Hong Kong to thailand to south america, at festivals or in clubs like SeOne in london or Voodoo in buenos aires, and alongside names such as James Holden, Ricardo Villalobos and Alex Picone Clive Henry and many others As though he wasn't busy enough, Vicario founded a new project in 2005, the Photosonic Orchestra, an electronic/dance duo. Together, Vica and his partner were asked to play all over the world.
