Advantages: LOADS of tracks - great sounding House music

...Sweet Dream 16. Ultimahora Ibiza 17. Techno Harmony That’s just CD one! As you may have noticed from some of the song titles – not all of these are by Picotto, however he has either produced them, made them, mixed them or has had something to do with them! CD two is much more of the same, with the best tracks being Pegasus and Komodo. It seems he has a fascination with Lizards, but hey if it helps him to make great sound tunes then great! ...

Advantages: Among the top trance tunes of the year
Disadvantages: Could have been a bit more inventive

I must admit, this 12" was one of those chance purchases - the type that when you get it home, you have to play it again and again!! Mauro Picotto comes from a highly acclaimed stable - Nukleuz. His style is direct and to the point and "Lizard" does not disappoint! Whilst white labels are always the best source of new material, when it went commercial (VC Recordings) it was bundled with a bunch of cool mixes. For any serious DJ - this is a "must ...
...a throbbing bassline which gently builds into a screetching tone that just makes the crowd jump. The breakdown is a little drawn out, but leaves you hungry for the forthcoming frenzy.

Disadvantages: None

Mauro Picotto's 'The Lizard Man', out on the Nukleuz label, in my opinion is a great album from the Superstar DJ. There are 32 tracks over 2 CDs which include the crowd pleasing tracks Iguana and the Komodo, which has recently entered the UK charts at no 13. You'll find this album to contain heavy bass and uplifting and refreshing breaks. The tracklisting is as follows: CD1: Save a Soul - Picotto The Dolphin - Gee Moore The Vision - Mario ...

Advantages: hes the lizzard man
Disadvantages: none at all

i first noticed mauro when i heard this track on a compelation, and i instantly thought classic! It was re released with a bunch of new mixes and it cleaned up again a massive hit, and i can only sing this guys praises, because hes gone on from this to one of the biggest producers/remixers in the world. I would love to see this guy live. Mauros hard house background, and his making of tunes with the lizzard in mind e.g lizzard, iguana, komodo has ... Read review
