Diego Cusano is the new web artist-personality who is gaining considerable success on social networks.

After the successful cover "Back to Black," a tribute to soul singer-songwriter Amy Winehouse, the winter European tour "In Memory of" and the second release "Never," it is time to introduce the general public and '80s music enthusiasts to the debut album "Exit," which will be released in France, the Netherlands, and Denmark on July 25, while in Italy, one has to wait until August 12.

A decidedly unconventional album within the Italian discography and the TV-sales system, Diego Cusano claims that his is a "Pop Fluxus," a flow that embraces art in general «I have conceived and realized true photo shoots, curated the first two music videos, most of the projects are conceived by me, because I have many ideas in my head every day, and I somehow have to organize them». The album includes three potential radio hits "Stay, Never, and Dancing in the Night," the latter of which will be the concluding track of the "Exit" project and is produced by the London rap/hip-pop group One Giant Leap, known for the duet with Robbie Williams in "My Culture."

The album, recorded between Rome, Florence, Milan, and London, was mixed at Abbey Road Studio by Simon Rhodes «initially there was supposed to be a collaboration with Pete Doherty on the track Salomé, but we realized we were veering towards acoustic-soft rock, so we decided to set aside the track for the next album and create a trend-setting project characterized by the experimentation of new sounds and new samples».
