There are at least two artists named Roberto Rodriguez: 1. A Finnish deep house techno artist. 2. A Jewish Cuban musician with several releases on John Zorn's Tzadik label. The techno artist named Roberto Rodriguez was born in Helsinki 1975. Started making music in 1987 with his Commodore Amiga 500. Inspired by the "new" crazy music called "Acid House". Started Deejaying in 1992 by playing in various warehouse partys. By 1994 he had become a master of the four-track "tracker" software Pro-Tracker. In 1995 he purchased his first piece of real music making gear, the legendary bass-synthTB-303. Right after that Roberto started to build his own studio around the silverbox. 1996 he joined forces with another finnish producer Jukka Kaartinen ( Coopers / Dum Records, Pineapple Circles / Sähkö). Between 1995-1998 he organised partys, spinned records, did his first radio-show and of course composed lots of music. In 1998 Roberto signed his first recording contract with Tommi Grönlund and Harri Hännikäinen ( Sähkö Recordings/ Keys Of Life). First release was a Finnish deephouse classic Heartbeat EP in 1999. Followed by All I Do Is Wrong/ DJ Promo EP in 2000. Since then he has been producing lots of quality music with many different artists and musicians. Ranging from downtempo to techno.

Luminodisco equals disco made in Italy. Firmly linked to DWDK (Danny Was A Drag King) by Ajello, the latest offshoot of the ever-blinding Hell Yeah label, it’s the moniker of Federico Costantini: a resident of the Exe-cute parties, an eclectic artist with southern Italian blood and a Roman soul. His story goes like almost every nice club music fairytale. After bothering his neighbors with post-rock, Costantini was then struck by Kraftwerk, put his guitar back in the closet and began to play around with synthesizers and a vocoder. If his releases Questo Amore Splendido and Balerama are anything.. Luminodisco equals disco made in Italy.

If his releases Questo Amore Splendido and Balerama are anything to go by, all that's left to do now is sit comfortably and wait for what seems to be one of the hottest artists on the Italian mirror ball scene, present and future. Live from Italy’s Dancity festival, 2011.
