In 2009, with SEC_ of Weltraum, another Neapolitan experimental rock band, he founded the duo Aspec(t) in which SEC_'s tapes are mixed with Mario's studies of feedback and recycled or self-made materials.
Mario worked closely with Agostino Di Scipio, a researcher in sound ecology and teacher at the Naples Conservatory, with whom he published "Up-Set" (Viande Records, 2010) and "Musical Sculptures & Other Devices" (DieSchachtel, 2011). At this stage his research shifted from extensive saxophone techniques to feedback studies on saxophone and DIY electronics (going deeper also collaborating with Olivier Di Placido, Arnaud Riviere, Andy Bolus aka Evil Moisture, Andy Guhl from VoiceCrack, Gaia Leandra, Jean Bender...) researching of unstable and nonlinear behaviors generated by electronic systems and acoustic feedback and no-input mixing.
Since 2014 he has founded several groups in which hiphop-like beatmaking is merged with radical improvisation and noise practices, with DJsEKS(Genital Warts), Tom De Testa(Infected Burst, Formless To Come) , Utku Tavil, Makumbo(Radon Squad), Uochi Toki, Abstral Compost, C_C, dj Die Soon, Walter Gross, dj 2Phast...

Playing between the United States, Europe, and Russia, in 2020 he collaborated with American percussionist Chris Cogburn, releasing for Geneva-based Insubordination Records.
In February 2020 he participated to the No-Idea Festival, an international improvised and experimental music event, in Autsin, Texas.
In the latter period, depending on the contexts, he varies his set-up on the saxophone using various extensions of his own invention such as cans, springs, strings, microphones, up to motion sensors.
