Inspired by my
daily life, I aspire to create music that captures people's ears

Cino (born Mattia Cerri) is a Milan-based multiplatinum producer, composer, sound designer, and DJ whose work reflects a broad musical vision shaped by diverse genres, disciplines, and cultures.

With a passion that predates his artistic high school years and a specialization in Sound Design from IED Milan, Cino has been immersed in music since childhood—experimenting, spinning records, and shaping sounds with intent and emotion.

As one of the leading Italian songwriters for Warner/Chappell Music (Warner Music Group), he’s collaborated with top-tier artists including Eros Ramazzotti, Luis Fonsi, Marracash, Elodie, Emis Killa, Fred De Palma, Baby Gang, and most recently contributed to ‘Mariposa’ by Fiorella Mannoia at the 2024 Sanremo Festival.

His sound bridges Scandinavian minimalism and South American rhythm, blending technical precision with cultural depth. Beyond production, Cino brings clarity and discipline drawn from his practice of martial arts, particularly karate, and from frequent travels to the East—experiences that have enriched his spiritual and creative life.

Based near Fondazione Prada in Milan, Cino operates from a vibrant artistic hub while maintaining deep personal roots in the countryside and a quiet retreat in Bagnolo Cremasco, his hometown. His creative world extends into education and consultancy: as an Ableton Live Certified Trainer at 4CMP, he mentors the next generation of producers and songwriters, and collaborates with major and independent labels, fashion brands, and ad agencies—infusing projects with the essence of musical communication.

Cino’s artistic identity cannot be confined to one role or genre: he is a producer, composer, arranger, DJ, educator, and above all, a passionate connoisseur of music in all its forms—committed to delivering emotionally resonant music rooted in experience, exploration, and global perspective.
