Born in 2002 out of that breeding ground for cutting-edge innovation which is the city of Torino, dedicated to exploring the contemporary club-oriented electronic sound, Krakatoa started as a cult underground party in Torino’s “The Beach” venue, where more than a thousand clubbers had their regular date every Thursday night until 2007.
Pisti and Samuel –who originated the project- were joined there by guests including Josh Wink, Shinedoe, Radio Slave, John Digweed, Raresh, Alex Smoke, Egoexpress, The Glimmers, Marco Carola, Alex Neri, Ralf, Paolo Martini and many others...
While becoming an icon of Italian club culture, Krakatoa’s Turinese residence ended and gave room to Samuel and Pisti’s growing will to create studio productions more regularly, but also to organize exclusive events in Torino or to take part every year in a festival like "Movement", where they’ve been the only Italian dj’s to play alongside artists such as Derrick May and Underground Resistance and or in clubs like "Xplosiva”, Torino’s classic Friday nights.
It’s in Krakatoa’s nature to constantly overcome its own limits, and with this philosophy DJ Pisti and Samuel have exported the success of Italy’s most famous Thursday night event to the best Italian clubs, like Goa in Rome, Tenax in Florence, Magazzini Generali in Milan, Clorophilla in Taranto, Guendalina in Lecce and Fluid in Bergamo, besides being invited as resident dj’s for the summer season at Jesolo’s Muretto, once again at Rome’s Goa and regular guests at Alter Ego in Verona; also, since three years now, Krakatoa is amongst the headliners for Amore, the huge New Year’s eve party organized in Rome.
Finally, in 2007 Krakatoa also became a record label, giving birth to the first productions by the Turinese duo, together with showcasing the best new talents in electronic music.
