In 2009 a collection of the first two albums released in the USA titled Mediterraneo-Club Favourite Collection '90-98 and in 2010 his fourth album entitled The Cool Deep which reproduced the sounds closest to his first productions.Also active as a remixer for Italian and international labels, one of his most important works is the remix of Byron Stingily of the song You MakeMe Feel of which he made a worldwide hit.
