For someone who has been digging for obscure records, books and movies since his memory can remember, Simone de Kunovich still transmits the enthusiasm of the beginner. In the past decade he’s managed to travel the globe far and wide, always on a hunt for blind rarities for his label and Youtube channel Ultimo Tango or playing shows in iconic clubs between London, Tokyo, Paris, New York or his home Milan.

His vast multi-disciplinary knowledge has made him an acclaimed tastemaker, who moves at the crossroads between cinema, music and design, always with a sharp taste for the unconventional. Glimpses of this intense and vast research can be heard in his studio projects, from his last EP on Public Possession, inspired by Y2K dance music and fantasy table games, to the “Mondo Nuovo” trilogy on Mulemusiq, influenced by 70s Exploitation movies and early electronics. In a world of standardisation and predictability, if you love to experience the wonderful of the unexpected, a good way is to catch him doing his thing behind the decks
