Zero Assoluto
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Zero Assoluto ("Absolute Zero") is an Italian pop / R&B duo comprising Thomas De Gasperi (b. Rome, June 24, 1977) and Matteo Maffucci (b. Rome, May 28, 1978). They met each other when they were teenagers and became best friends.
Their first single, Ultimo capodanno was released in 1999. In 2004, the album Scendi, containing Minimalismi, was published.
During the summer of 2005 they entered the Italian Top 40 chart with "Semplicemente", and reached the number 2 position. The success of this song allowed them to participate at the Sanremo Music Festival where the group performed "Svegliarsi la mattina" in the "Band" category - the single eventually reaching the top spot on the Italian Top 40 chart. Additional hit success followed with the song "Sei parte di me", which also reached number 1.
Matteo Maffucci also works as a DJ for the national radio network RTL 102.5. Together with band mate De Gasperi he hosts Suite 102.5 and has hosted RTL 102.5 Television 3° piano-internoB.
Also to Maffucci's credit are the books Ore a Caso and Ultimo Stadio, as well as collaborations with the magazines Tutto, Rockstar and GQ.
In 2006 Zero Assoluto was featured on a version of the Nelly Furtado song "All Good Things (Come to an End)" released on the Italian version of the album Loose.
