Alberto Trevisan also known as Airwolf One is, commonly speaking, a music-video producer and a live performer.
In particular, he studied drums since the age of 12, composition, sequence programming and mixing. Additionally he became in the years a self-learner keyboardist, guitarist, bass player and vocalist.
Alberto grew up and made his first steps in the music scene in Florence, Italy. Driven by great enthusiam he acquired two degrees in modern music and played with a dozen of bands but soon he had to face the impossibility to find a fertile ground for some serious artistic development.
He left the beautiful but conservative italian city in 1999, searching for some real vital and musical air to breath. One year in Paris, for acquiring his third degree in Jazz and Contemporary Music at the acclaimed INFIMM/CIM in the district of Mont Martre, was his first lucky attempt.
The french experience was exactly what he needed, full immersion into music and plenty of inspiring acquaintances but something was still missing...
London was the next logical step to do, the "Holy Grail city of Pop". He eventually spent more than three years(2001-2004) working in high end recording studios as a sound engineer and music producer, trying to absorb as much experience as possible, especially some of "the secret tips and tricks for the perfect mix"... in that period he had the chance to work closely with some members of the bands Culture Club and Imagination.
London was great but also felt somehow to be stuck in its lack of real artistic development, strange but true: too much competition for what it actually had to offer. Those were the most intense years of the music business global crisis, record labels where closing down one after the other and the artistic revolution that Alberto was so eager for, was actually happening somewhere else....
When he was in Cannes, France, for attending MIDEM 2005, he was offered a position as a resident in one of the best studios of Berlin. He didn´t hesitate to accept, considering that ideally the offer felt like one of those trains you just can´t miss!
Berlin felt good from the very first day of that February 2005, even though temperature was minus 20 degrees sucked in a dense snow storm. That´s where Airwolf One actually born, in the eager wild cold of Northern Europe! ("there´s no such thing like Berlin. Berlin is Berlin, if you feel it, you can tell!")
Alberto worked there as a multi-task freelancer for clients such as Universal Music Publishing, Allianz AG, Nivea, MTV Germany, Black Eyed Peas, Phoenix...
In 2007
he spent most of his time and energies on the Airwolf One´s debut album `Brake or Accelerate´, released finally in mid 2008.(available on iTunes)
The following year the track `Touch the Core of the Beat´ was hosted by Aftershock Promotions for the Airwolf One remix competition, resulting in the EP `Touch the Core of the Beat - Remix Competition´.(available on iTunes)
In 2009 Alberto officially started producing music-videos, thanks to a sponsorship received from ARRI Group and the great support of Rodeo Club and Showcase Potsdam. He managed to put together a team of 25 willing professionals and made a huge effort in producing and co-editing `Choose to Love´ that eventually came out exactly the way he wanted.[video link]
His interest for music applied to fashion, took him to compose an ambitious brand new album named `Fashion Rocks!´, which is currently in the mix.
Release expected in summer 2010.[preview link]
Between 2003 and 2010, he attained Midem(Cannes), Popkom(Berlin), Mercedes Benz-Fashion Week(Berlin), In The City(Manchester), Pitti Immagine(Florence) and Bread & Butter(Berlin).
Member of collecting society PRS, performing society GVL and Crew United.
The matter of fact is: he feels like he has just started...
