Emanuele Asti, born on December 21, 1974, in Udine, Italy, is a prominent Italian singer, composer, and record producer. He has been active in the music industry since 1994, primarily within the Eurodance genre. Asti gained significant recognition in the late 1990s with his project Playahitty, creating international hits like "The Summer Is Magic" and "1-2-3! (Train With Me)," which topped charts and achieved platinum sales worldwide. These tracks were mixed by Alex Bagnoli.

Beyond Playahitty, Asti worked on various successful dance projects, including The Party by Cisky, Crisia by U4EA, and Infinity '97' by B-Project, the latter being widely played in European clubs. He also collaborated with DJ Cerla on the single "Because."

In the early 2000s, Asti continued to innovate with projects like Angie Law, Electropump, and Replicas, releasing singles such as "Desire," "Do You Like Brahms," and "This Is My Sound." His project Yeats, in collaboration with the band Marillion, produced the hit "Everything's Allright," which sampled Marillion's "Kayleigh."

Asti's project D3D4 saw success with a cover of the Beach Boys' "I Get Around" and his original composition "Sun Fun," a hit in Italy in 2005. He continued to release music under D3D4, including a cover of AC/DC's "You Shook Me All Night Long."

In 2008, Asti revisited his earlier success with "The Summer Is Magic 2008," which was well-received in Europe. Since 2009, he has expanded his repertoire to include pop dance tracks and has written songs for Italian talent show artists, including Valerio Scanu, whose album quickly achieved gold status. Asti remains an influential figure in the Eurodance and pop music scenes.
