Henry B (Marcello Enrico Bellanti) is an Italian DJ, producer, remixer and singer, based in Genoa, Italy. His artistic career includes numerous singles and albums, ranging from pop/dance to house and finally to Latin/reggaeton. Since joining the Danijay team in 2004, Henry B has achieved international success, working with prestigious labels such as Universal Music and Warner Music. As a DJ, he performs at clubs, private parties and weddings.

But let’s start from the beginning… Henry B ‘s artistic career officially began in 2004, during his university studies that would soon lead to a degree in computer science. In that year he joined the musical project “Danijay” as an author, composer, and singer of pop-dance songs.

The following four years were entirely dedicated to producing two albums: “Dance & Breakfast” (2006) and “Plug & Play” (2008). The first album (ed. Warner Chappel; label Universal Music) entered the overall chart of the 100 best-selling albums in Italy, officially disclosed by F.I.M.I., reaching the 63rd position just a few days after its release. The second album increased the team’s success, thanks to its innovative distribution concept: for the first time worldwide it used an audio-video player as a medium instead of a CD, allowing for a wide variety of content (31 tracks plus multimedia content). “Radio Deejay“, “Discoradio“, “M2O” and prestigious compilations like “Hot Party” are just some of the significant italian milestones achieved by the team within only one year since the debut song “Danijay – Il gioco dell’amore”, with which the artist (D. Zaffiri) began his career in 2003, topping charts all over Europe!

In 2008, after releasing “Plug & Play”, the team decided to temporarily halt the production, due to the profound changes occurring in the musical market, fundamentally altering the Italian dance scene. Meanwhile, Henry B, experimenting with a Latin style, released the song “Por Favor“, featuring J. Hernandez, lead singer of “Mojito Project”. It’s the beginning of a new independent project, with which the artist also starts his solo career. The song, exceeding all expectations, quickly reached the upper echelons of many national charts, paving the way for subsequent singles: “Miradas” (2009) and “Realize” (2010), both in Latin-pop style, receiving even better feedback from major national charts. In 2011, in collaboration with Antiqua Studio, he produced a bachata-style cover of Lady Antebellum’s famous song “Need you now“.

In 2010, the artist decided to leverage his extensive experience from productions, collaborations, and live performances across Italy and Europe. Togheter with his brother, a specialist in video production and communication, he founded “FunLab” and “Wonderland Production“, organizations offering a multitude of related services, including DJ sets for events, parties, and weddings, as well as production services for audio, video, and web.

His latest work in the Latin genre, dated April 2013, resulted from a significant new collaboration with Moscow-based artist Nastya Yasna. Henry B remixed the lead track from Nastya’s debut album Moya Lyubov. It is undoubtedly a unique production: one of the few, if not the first, bachata songs in the Russian language. Since 2013, Henry B has also been involved in the “Plastik Duck” project, a collaboration with David DJ (D. Longo) in the pop-dance and house music genres. The debut single, “Seize The Night“, was produced by Bliss Co., a Music Factory with 20 million records sold, and a launching platform for artistis like Eiffel65, Gabry Ponte, DJs From Mars, Da Blitz, and many other dance hit producers.
