MICHELE MARIA CUCCOVILLO

PROFILE

I am an Italian multi-instrumentalist, hip-hop/jazz/funk producer, pianist, rapper, audio engineer, and hardware modder based in Triggiano, Apulia.

Music is a gift, not a profit-driven career. My focus is on pure creative expression, crafting independent mixtapes, and making listeners smile. My sound bridges digital foundations and organic, live instrumentation, drawing heavy influence from the creative ambitions of Kanye West, J. Cole, Kendrick Lamar, and Mac Miller.

DISCOGRAPHY

• Welcome To My Mind (Released May 11, 2026)
  Debut fully rapped mixtape exploring conscious rap, funk, boom bap, and jazz-fusion. Produced, mixed, and mastered entirely on BandLab.
• Current Work
  Transitioned to Ableton Live 12 Suite. Currently producing new, unreleased projects with a focus on an organic, live sound.
• Future Projects
  Upcoming work is highly influenced by my brother behind the kit, Steven Gargano. While no official collaboration is out yet, future projects will feature his live drums as I search for the perfect groove.
