Claudio Ponticelli was born in Naples in 1984 and starts his djing career at the age of 15, with soul and tech house. Some years later he begins to listen and play Techno music, mostly influenced by Detroit and German scenes. From 2003 Claudio plays in most of the best clubs of the city, and his name gets well known in Naples: he is booked for several session working with Neapolitan master djs like Davide Squillace, Markantonio, Gaetano Parisio and Rino Cerrone and international guests like Len Faki, Tony Rohr, Ellen Allien, Joel Mull and Par Grindvik, Patrik Skoog, Robert Hood and Octave One just to say someone.
Claudio also plays in famous Italian clubs like Cassero (Bologna), Gasoline (Milan), Villa Capriglio (Turin), Mosquito (Verona), Rashomon, Brancaleone and Rialto Sant’Ambrogio (Rome) and became wanted out of Italy too: he plays in Barcelona @ City Hall and in Alicante (Spain), in Bielefeld and in Cologne @ ARTheater (Germany), in Medellin at Carnival (Colombia), in bulgaria at Renesanz parties in Plovdiv and Varna.
His style is a good compromise between strictly techno music and groovy funky minimalist music.
Actually he is making his own music and is working for Naked Lunch Records (A Paul’s label/Portugal), Patterns Rec and Adult Records! Stay tuned!
