‘Crossfingers’ is an Italian producer/DJ duo formed in 2010 by Rey Vanguard and Niky Azard.
They know each other since 2000 and they started DJing at some local clubs, influenced by artists like Axwell, Michael Woods, Mark Knight, Daft Punk and many others. They started to produce some tracks with sequencers and analog synths.
Crossfingers’s musical culture is now strongly influenced by Deadmau5, Feed Me and Dyro, who have become their main landmark artists.
