Nino Msk

A bit about Nino Msk leading up to his radio show on BFF.fm, Espresso Sesh, now in its 10th season. He was born and raised in Sicily, Italy, where growing up, his major musical influences ranged from blues, jazz, dub, and electronic genres. In the mid-90s he played the guitar and gigged with local bands. Since 2003, he has been making original music as Msk, Italic Disco, Goonpaz, and as the founder of an anti-mafia collective called the Sicilian AV Project. He has multiple releases, solo and collaborative. In college, he studied philosophy, and for five years after graduation, he wrote for a satirical anti-mafia publication called Erroneo which satirized Sicilian politics- a bit of his risky activist streak! He cut his teeth in radio in 2008 with a station airing in Hudson Valley, New York which streamed from Italy for a total of six years. He's lived in Bratislava, Prague, Rome, Catania before moving from Rome to San Francisco in 2010 and has been an active member of SF’s underground music scene ever since. Each week Espresso Sesh awakens listeners to the infinite possibilities of mixing various genres and languages. This show is a platform that showcases the host’s talent for crafting mood-driven tempos unique to each unfolding moment while exposing his guests’ music, processes, and influences.
