[edit] Background

Like most musicians in the Eurobeat genre, he has performed under a number of pseudonyms for various labels (including A-Beat-C and Delta), though he is perhaps best known for the songs he has produced under the Max Coveri alias. However, as is common among Eurobeat performers, he is not the first person to use that alias; Mauro Farina had used the alias before him. De Jorio's songs (via the Max Coveri alias) "Running in the '90s", "Like a Thunder", and "Golden Age" were all featured in the anime Initial D. Initial D has also featured "Speedy Speed Boy", which De Jorio performed as Marko Polo, "Crazy For Your Love" which he has performed as Morris, and "Night Of Fire", which he has performed as Niko. Since the break up of Delta, Sinclairestyle has Maurizio De Jorio exclusively.
