Italian DJ and producer, Spiller - sat down to compose his very first tune in 1995, using a home PC and sampler. Barely two years later, the 6'9" Venetian was making a big noise around the world with a single, Laguna's "Spiller From Rio". The Latin-flavored house track swiftly became a club anthem and made it into the top ten on the Billboard dance charts. Not long after, Spiller applied his golden touch as a remixer to tunes by high-profile artists such as Gloria Gaynor, Matt Bianco, St Germain, Bob Sinclar, Run Dmc and Smoke City.

In 1999 he again set the clubs alight with another house single, "Batucada" - a new take on Marcos Valle's original. The following year he became one of the best-known Italian musicians thanks to his next single "Groovejet (If This Ain't Love)". Named after a Miami club, this widely acclaimed disco house track was initially a club hit as an instrumental, but exploded in popularity after it was injected with the vocals of UK's Sophie Ellis Bextor (formerly of the alternative group The Audience). "Groovejet" was arguably the biggest club tune of the year and won the top spot on singles and dance charts in many countries. It was also the song with most radio plays of the decade (2000-2010) in uk and Apple declared on an interview that they used "Groovejet" to test their first iPod prototype. Spiller later released the electro-funk tune "Cry Baby", Royksopp did a remix, which became a classic downtempo. In 2003 he launched his own label Nano Rec with "Sola" a groovy disco track with a French touch flavor and in 2007 "Jumbo", one of Pete Tong's alltime favourite that went straight to n°1 on the Buzz Chart. In 2009 he remixed "Teen Drive In", a song from a new italian act named Useless Wooden Toys, and made it into a national hit with the infamous riff "siete pro, siete pro, siete pronti per lo show!".
Spiller was recently back with hi new single "Pigeonman's Revenge", an epic instrumental track that brings back his original disco house roots. It was released in June 2011 featuring a stunning videoclip by photographer and director James Mollison. The track was also remixed by Louis La Roche, Leopold Gregori, Dominique Torti and 2 Guys in Venice.
