Gadi Sassoon

Gadi Sassoon

Gadi Sassoon has been played on NTS shows including Kranky, with Moto Perpetuo first played on 20 January 2021.

Memory9, aka Gadi Sassoon, Italy’s genre-defying, bass heavy, London-dwelling export. A sound artist strongly focused on live performance, his work has been showcased in art galleries, rave rigs and world-class clubs. Young Gadi was a teenage punk rocker in the Milan underbelly of the 1990’s. He soon started reverse-engineering jazz and classical music and quickly distinguished himself as a budding composer, winning several scholarships that took him to America, but not before he got an early education in science, maths and industrial design. In Boston he abandoned a jazz culture he found deprived of its revolutionary values. Eventually he found his artistic freedom in designing small machines and bits of code. In London Memory9 collaborated with Dj Vadim (Ninja Tune, BBE), DJ Krust (Full Cycle), Dani Siciliano (!K7). He redefined his dancefloor skills, experimenting with unseen laptop performance techniques at the best underground nights in Paris, Milan, Berlin, Shanghai, Boston, Barcelona, Glasgow, and NYC. Audiences and critics agree on a unique experience: Memory9 bridges the gap between the zen of electronic performance and the thrust of live playing thanks to unique control surfaces and homemade software. Memory9's much anticipated debut record will be available in the second quarter of 2008.
