In 1993, Trentacoste founded the band, V.M.18,[1] and released their eponymous album[2] in 1996. Following V.M.18's split in 1997, Trentacoste played with The Paolo Martella Band (1997–1999) and Delta V (1998–2001).[3] During this period, Trentacoste also remixed songs for various artists including Bluvertigo, Soerba[4] (under the name 'Clockwork')[5] and Pino Scotto.[6]
