- CRAFT (Daniele Ciocio)
Born in NYC, he bought his technics 1200's & Vestax mixer at age 14 with his own savings in 1994. Taught himself the skill of beat matching and studied the art of blending tracks smoothly to perfection with persistence. Began producing music in 1999 done under the name "Craft" or "Craft Music Productions. He dj's on average 3 times per month in the NYC underground scene for his established "Twice as Proper" techno events and other local showcase events. He evolved from the Vinyl-only days to CDj’s of all types, and now often performs live with his all-in-one DJ workstation M-Audio Torq Xponent. In 2010, Craft traveled to Europe for his Italy Dj tour in various cities (Milan, Rome, Terracina), then experienced an incredible Costa Rica DJ Tour with Dj Onda Skillet covered by much media attention (major radio, TV and internet), then ended up the year by hosting 8 Twice as Proper events around different venues in Playa del Carmen, Mexico. In 2011, Craft performed on the main stage at "The Works" during DEMF/Movement (Detroit techno festival), as well as Washington DC’s Funxion and Sweet Spot clubs, and Boston’s famous Rise afterhours club. He has been approached by countless labels for tracks, by now released on 7 labels based in 4 countries (USA, UK, Germany and Malta), with more remixes and 2 EP's scheduled early 2012. Craft co-created the NYC movement "Twice as Sweet" with Shadi which then became "Twice as Proper Sessions". An impressive "over 200 events" and counting in the past 5 years since 2007 and with an illustrious list of guest DJ bookings. On March 3rd 2012, "Feed The Raver Podcast show" debuts worldwide hosted by Craft himself, with interviews and sets by guest artists from around the world! Also, Craft created and designed the "Party People" T-Shirt which has a history of its own...

"Twice as Proper" and their founders:
Twice as Proper is a New York City Based Underground Techno Events organization. Shadi & Craft co-created the movement "Twice as Sweet" which then became "Twice as Proper Sessions". With an impressive over 200 events and counting, it is now well established in the NYC underground techno scene. 2012 will be the 5th year, and with quite an illustrious list of guest DJ bookings in venues across Manhattan & Brooklyn, there is always something exciting and different to expect from the events. In 2010, Twice as Proper hosted 8 events in Playa del Carmen (Mexico) during the winter, while keeping regular NYC events alive as always. 2011 was fantastic for the two artists bringing International tours in 5 countries (USA, Italy, Egypt, Mexico, Costa Rica), international radio shows, podcasts, music productions, TV coverage (Italy, Mexico, Costa Rica), TV coverage, soundcloud recordings listened to in over 84 countries, new fans and friends. Craft & Shadi have been a DJ duo since 1994 on those legendary Technics 1200's. Then followed the years of CDJ technology and mixers with effects, always keeping it dark, deep, dirty real serious. They now often perform live mixes with the ultimate Xponent controller, with many built-in live effects. They go on with explosive sets, chopping' up loops and samples, all while in the mix. The result is always "Massive". Craft & Shadi promise to rip it Proper.
No crap.
