Evolution (Sep 15, 2008) is my first album. The recording sessions lasted from March to August 2008. I worked on this record during the breaks from touring with my band Arcadia. My 2nd solo album is called Codex Magika and was produced on Sep 18, 2012. The Codex Videos was released on Sep 18, 2013. Watch some clips here. The Art of Complications is out since Jan 10, 2016. The next album, The Silent Watcher, was released on Nov 4, 2018. My latest album, « V », is out since Apr 10, 2022.
Here we go with the first cover song in a long time.
This week Metallica are gonna release a new remastered version of their metal masterpiece "Master of Puppets" so I decided to pay a tribute to a band that had a strong influence on my playing in the early days, playing a full version of "Master".
Neither the less this video is representing for me the start of an awesome collaboration with Rigbusters Kemper Profiles. In January 2018 we are in fact releasing a new pack with all my signature and personal Kemper profiles and presets, made by your truly from the scratch.
On this video I used a couple of profiles of Rigbusters from their latest pack: Friedman BE-100 amp.
My latest album has been re-released on December 8th under monicker “Dimitry” with 3 bonus tracks.
You can stream it from all the major music outlets out there or buy CD, digital download & merchandise on bandcamp.
In January I released the official video clip for the song “Deva”, single #3, taken from “V”.
In February I have been guest at the Italian radio/tv program Linea Rock on the Italian TV “Radio Lombardia”.
I had a nice interview with the program conductor Marco and performed a couple of songs live, remotely from my studio in Norway.
Next event is Namm 2023 in April and right after that I’ll be completing the album of the duo Scopelliti/Davidsen; the project is described as Stravinsky meets Meshuggah.. 🤪
