Massimo DaCosta was born and raised in Mons, Belgium. When he was 17, he was introduced to house music by such producers as MAW, dj Sneak, Todd Terry and Kerry Chandler. After some years playing in bars and small parties around Brussels, his friend Brandy, a dj, producer and manager of some of Belgiums top nightclubs, gave him a Friday-night residency at one of the most respected clubs in Belgium, Pure Club. This residency brought him the opportunity to meet and share decks with some of the world’s top dj’s such as DJ Deep, Bob Sinclar, Osunlade, Gregory, Mateo & Matos, Kenny Hawkes, Jef K, Chateau Flight, Alex Gopher, Llorca and Charles Schillings to name a few. Since leaving Pure in November 2003, Massimo has settled into a new monthly residency at Touché in Leuven, and still crafts his deep, sexy, and funky house sets every week-end in some of the best clubs and parties in Belgium. He has played at Fuse, Pure, Sub, H2o, Silo, Café d’Anvers, Decadance, Pablo Disco Bar, BlowUp, BarRoom, Lounge, Catacombes, and Groove City. In 2004, he was proud to join Raoul (Swirl People) and Geoffroy (HiPhen) as the third resident dj for the finest weekly house night in Belgium, Food. Massimos International gigs have taken him to some of the most respected clubs in Chicago, Miami, NY, Boston, Milwaukee, Paris, Barcelona, Lille, Dortmund, Lljublina, Berlin, Frankfort, Luxembourg, Maastricht, Krakow, Katowice, Eindhoven, Belgrade, and Oslo.
