He performed, worked and collaborated with both Italian and international artists, such as Pharrell Williams, Alicia Keys, Frank Ocean, 40, Ann Mincieli, Faouzia, Fatman Scoop, Nicky Romero, Lucio Dalla, Mike Larson, Shapov, Claudio Cecchetto, Albano, Angelo Branduardi, Marvin Floyd, Little Louie Vega, Ray Bryant,[2] B.B.

He performed in Europe in events like the La Maddalena Music Festival, the Ascona Jazz Festival, the Noto Blues Festival, the Lago Maggiore Jazz Festival. With a classical, jazz and blues background, he then approached dance, pop and R&B music and began his career as a producer and songwriter. In 2009, he conceived Art&Music Recording, an independent dance record label and recording studio, offering audio/video/web and graphical services.[3] In 2012, he discovered and signed the Russian trio Serebro with their multi=platinum record Mama Lover.[4] Together with his production trio Doc M.C., Dr. Shiver has released several dance singles. The song "Catch Me" was presented at the Eurovision Song Contest 2013, and most of their progressive house tracks have reached high positions in the Beatport charts. Dr. Shiver gained support from many fellow international DJs, such as Martin Garrix, W&W, Afrojack, Nicky Romero, Fedde Le Grand, Danny Ávila, John Christian, Sander Van Doorn, David Guetta, Avicii, Shapov and R3hab. In September 2015, after the historic 1992 version by Frankie Knuckles, Dr. Shiver released the first official and authorized remix of "You Got The Love" by Candi Staton and reached #3 of the UK Pop chart. He was chosen as music producer of the Italian talent show TOP DJ (Sky Italia and Italia 1) for all editions arranging, sound designing, mixing and mastering all the broadcast tracks. In the 2016 edition, he worked with the show supergroup, comprising Federico Poggipollini, Sergio Carnevale, Marco Castellani, Andy Fumagalli and Alex Uhlmann.[5]
In 2017, he made his first appearance at Tomorrowland Belgium, the most important stage in the world.[citation needed] Later, he released "Something" on Protocol Recordings: this release was the beginning of a strong collaboration between the artist and the label, which allowed him to perform on the Melkweg stage to present his record live together with Nicky Romero during the "5 Years of Protocol" party, which took place during the Amsterdam Dance Event. Due to the warm reception of public and critics, the track was followed by an Unplugged version, released on Protocol on 21 December 2017.
In March 2018, Dr. Shiver produced together with Solberjum a rework of the legendary "Bla Bla Bla" by Gigi D'Agostino. In 2018 and 2019, he was also involved in several live-streamed masterclasses, including the ones for Protocol Recordings and Ask.Audio. In summer 2019, he reached his 16th track synched with a Tomorrowland promo video, confirming once again the strong collaboration with the festival.
In 2020, he started a new artistic project under the name Bruno Riva which debuted with a pop/funk track titled "We Need Hope", in collaboration with the National Department of the Italian Civil Protection and AidMe in support of the families of medical staff members who lost their lived during the Covid-19 pandemic, which hit Italy hard in the months between March and May 2020.
