Cutso was born as Paolo Manolo Garcia Bello on the 24th of October in 1981. Scorpio. His love for music traces back to when he was a very young boy. He was influenced heavily by his Uncle when he started playing him old rock records, particularly the Beatles. He also learned how to play the piano as a kid. But his curiosity for the turntables began when he started playing with his Uncles setup and eventually he got his own pair. He began learning from Ejay, and started doing mobile gigs. He eventually formed a dj crew along with Squareone, called the Super Vinyl Butchers. They would have weekly scratch sessions at each others house, which led them to enter their high school’s first dj competition. He later linked up with Ngobility, Goldenchyld, Ejay, Rocky Rock, and Squareone, which formed the Finger Bangerz. He won numerous Zebra Competitions, and placed top six in the 1999 DMC San Francisco Regional Championship. He is featured on NC Clothing’s Hip Hop Heads vol. 2-5, and is known to rock crowds up and down California. His love and eclectic taste for other genres of music is greatly contributed to the Finger Bangerz movement. Cutso is currently working in the studio finishing up his first LP, along with Squareone, titled Coalinga Sound Machine. Until then, you can catch him at a club or venue near you.
