BIOGRAFÍA ART OF FIGHTERS
Después de tres años de práctica con Fast Tracker , gracias a la ayuda de Stunned Guys , en diciembre de 1999 lanzaron The Beat Can’t Change , su primer EP. Sin embargo, solo será con el segundo álbum, Artwork , que el grupo se convertirá en un ícono en la escena Hardcore.
Durante las presentaciones en vivo y los DJ, Art of Fighters usa máscaras de hockey blancas, similares a las que se ven en la película el viernes 13 , y personalizadas para cada uno de los varios miembros del grupo: una A en la frente y dos triángulos en los lados para Cristian, una X para Luca y rayas horizontales y verticales para Matteo.
Hacia finales de 2002, el grupo decidió abandonar el uso de FastTracker para cambiar a Logic Studio : el primer disco así producido será Earthquake.
A partir de 2003 , con el lanzamiento de Sinapse , Cristian y Matteo producen una serie de canciones con un sonido más experimental y oscuro bajo el nuevo seudónimo de Meccano Twins , alias paralelo al proyecto principal. Más tarde, Cristian hace uso de la colaboración del disc jockey italiano-español José Sendra, quien se convierte en el único miembro del proyecto.
En 2008, después del lanzamiento de su primer álbum doble, Matteo decidió abandonar su carrera musical para dedicarse a una vida más relajada. Dado el cambio, el grupo se reestructura, convirtiéndose en Cristian el único productor y Luca en el MC del grupo.
En 2010, una de sus pistas (Breaking the Ground) se incluyó en el videojuego musical Beatmania IIDX .
En 2013 se presentaron en el mayor evento holandés de Hardstyle , el Qlimax .
Su estilo es variado, muy técnico y amplio, creado al abarcar varios estilos musicales, con influencias directas del mundo de Neurofunk , Dubstep y Oldschool .
