When he was 14 years old he moved from Naples to Brescia. He met DJ Anas who brought the hardcore sound in his life. He started to produce in about 1999 when he bought his first PC. He gave his first demo tracks to Randy and a few months later [r=131617] was released. After this he met Pietro from the Angels Of Darkness and gave him a demo. Pietro gave the demo to Simone (the owner of Hardcore Blasters), and she liked all the tracks. So he got a contract at Hardcore Blasters. He performed with a live act at several parties.
Valentino also got the opportunity to release at some other new labels. He decided to take a new name for those labels. And so The Real Beast and The Insane Animal were born. Together with DJ D he became Psychorudes.
