Salmo (Maurizio Pisciottu, born in 1984) is a pioneering Sardinian artist now living in Milan, where he lives and works with his Machete collective in a Warhol factory which is the home and studio of rappers, producers, graphic designers and video makers.
In just one year Salmo took on the Italian rap scene (over 40 million views on his official YouTube channel) and introduced elements of electronica and hardcore rap in his music like Italy had not seen before.
