I'm an Italian drummer, percussionist, composer, and music producer based in Budapest.
I was born and raised in southern Italy. In 2013 I moved to Rome, graduating with a bachelor’s degree of jazz course in drums & percussion at the Saint Louis College of Music, and with a master’s degree in music for video games at the Santa Cecilia Conservatory. As a music performer, I played in different music projects covering numerous genres.

Throughout the years, I composed a wide variety of music from electronic to jazz, to pop and classical, which frequently has been featured in various video games, mobile apps, and advertising promos. I released music for Neele Records, Rehegoo Music, and Epic Tones Records. I'm the founder of Timeless Music Network and Timeless Music Records.

Author of various drum books, I'm the founder of Francis' Drumming Blog, a resource of drum transcriptions, books, exercises, and everything related to the drums and percussion.
