The story of Technoboy starts in Bologna, Italy in the second half of the 80's, when a hard-working schoolboy named Cristiano Giusberti stepped into a local discotheque for the first time. What was nothing more to his peers than a night out without having to bother about books and teachers, appeared to be a life-changing event for Cristiano. It was like every fiber of his body soaked up the music and he knew after that night what his destiny was: to be that guy on the podium, making people feel the same as he just experienced.

The story of Technoboy starts in Bologna, Italy in the second half of the 80's, when a hard-working schoolboy named Cristiano Giusberti stepped into a local discotheque for the first time. What was nothing more to his peers than a night out without having to bother about books and teachers, appeared to be a life-changing event for Cristiano. It was like every fiber of his body soaked up the music and he knew after that night what his destiny was: to be that guy on the podium, making people feel the same as he just experienced. Some years, much practicing and a lot of money spent on dance records later, Cristiano became that guy.

In 1992 Cristiano's musical career started.

That's where a new chapter in Cristiano's life emerged: next to playing music, he started producing it.

Again, his musical talents didn't stay unnoticed: in 1999 he achieved worldwide fame with his DJ Gius remix of the track 'Kernkraft 400' by the German techno/electro project Zombie Nation. It was an important year for Giusberti: he also joined 'Alternative Sound Planet', that is part of one of the biggest record companies in the world: The SAIFAM Group.
