Scicli, Italy
In 2010 when Elia Causarano decided to start his career as a producer, initially focusing on Minimal-Techno under the alias "The Drunkers (Italy)." By 2012, he reached the Beatport Minimal Top 10, with over six tracks in the Top 100, many being "Abusive Remixes." This approach, which involved remixing tracks without authorization, caught the attention of major artists and labels. As a result, he secured international gigs in Germany and Switzerland alongside names like Sébastien Léger and Dandi & Ugo.
He later abandoned "The Drunkers" to explore more complex sounds and transitioned into Drum & Bass. In 2015, he released Drum & Bass on Modulate Recordings and won a worldwide remix contest in 2019, securing a release on Cleopatra Records LA. In 2023, he founded the label “Original Gangsta Vibez,” which is dedicated to Drum & Bass and Jungle. In 2024, he is focusing on modernizing iconic Drum & Bass tracks with his signature "Abusive Remix" technique.
