Luca was absolutely amazing to work with. Even though the song I wrote was in a totally different language he picked up the vibe of the song wonderfully and crafted a bassline that was perfect for the track. Great turnaround time as well!

Luca goes easily to the top 3 bassist I've ever worked with. His skills are super technical and he also finds easily good spots for giving spotlight to the bass arrangement. In addition I think he found a perfect tone for my song. The offer is also ridiculously good, Luca is the man! Groovy!
