Maurizio De Jorio

He is most well known for being one part of the Eurodance group Max Coveri, alongside Edoardo Arlenghi, Mauro Farina, Corrado Baretta, Bratt Sinclaire, and Pamela Prandoni, producing hit tracks such as "Running in the 90s" and "Night of Fire". Both are featured in the anime Initial D – of which both appearances (among other songs featured in the anime) has garnered incredible popularity for De Jorio and the Eurobeat genre in general. Some of the other songs used in Initial D are: "Speedy Speed Boy", "Stop Your Self Control" (as 'Marko Polo'), "Golden Age", "Running in the 90s" (as 'Max Coveri'), "Take Me to the Top", (as 'D. Essex') and "No One Sleep In Tokyo (with Fernando Bonini as 'Edo Boys')". De Jorio's musical origins starts with his single "In A New World" (as Tom Maurice) in 1987 at Out Records, then in 1991, Gino Caria had taken him to A.Beat-C. and signed him to the record, beginning his Eurobeat career. His first song that he lent his vocals to was "Love & Celebration" by David Essex. In 1992, he had started working with Andrea Leonardi (Bratt Sinclaire), who was currently freelancing for the label. He split from A.Beat-C. later in the mid-1990s to join Sinclaire and his newly co-founded Eurobeat label, Delta Music Industry, which was also co-founded by Laurent Schruster Gelmetti (Laurent Newfield) and Clara Elena Moroni, who had both worked at Time Records. De Jorio had worked with Newfield and Moroni for a good number of songs, which in 2019, were released on the Delta Ultimate Collection and Bratt Sinclaire Eurobeat Style album compilations. Currently, De Jorio performs only under his alias Dejo for Bratt Sinclaire's label, SinclaireStyle. De Jorio joined Max Coveri in 1996, replacing Massimo Maglione before he adopted the drag queen alias Billy More.

• Many of his songs are used for fad music on the website, YTMND. • His promotional model, Edoardo Arlenghi, is used in place of his own image for the marketing of songs under his pseudonym "Niko". He can be seen most prominently in the music video for the song "Night of Fire". • Various songs including "Night of Fire" (as Niko), "Speedy Speed Boy" as (Marko Polo), "Golden Age", "Running in the 90s" (both as Max Coveri), "Crazy For Your Love" (as Morris), "Take Me To The Top" (as D.Essex), and "Wheelpower & Go!" (as Dejo with Bon) are featured in the Japanese anime Initial D, which contributed to the popularity of Eurobeat music. Additionally, "Running in the 90s" became an Internet meme due to its inclusion in Initial D, being played in many videos where vehicles are seen driving at high speeds. • Other of his songs, such as "Stop Your Self Control" (as Marko Polo) and "Burning Love" (as D.Essex) appeared in other media based on the series. • Songs such as "Wilder Faster Louder" (as Dejo) and "In The Eyes Of A Tiger" (as Dejo with Bratt) are featured in the Japanese anime MF Ghost, the sequel of Initial D. • One of his first aliases was "David Essex", which came from the 70' famous British singer David Essex (David Albert Cook). The reason why it went back to the truncated "D. Essex/D-Essex" is due to David Essex's lawyer threatening to sue for usage of the name clashing with his discography.
