Cellini is a Belgian-based artist with Southern Italian roots who creates percussion-driven and dancefloor-ready electronic music inspired by traditional influences from the Mediterranean landscape. His music is a celebration of diversity and cultural exchange, fusing European dancefloor-ready genres and a range of musical traditions. The sound is equally modern and timeless, reflecting his unique perspective on dance music.

Rooted in a deeply personal narrative, Cellini's music reflects on the complexities of identity and belonging. He navigates the tension between two worlds, creating a rich and textured outcome that sounds organic and electronic, modern and timeless.

A note form Cellini on ANEMOIA

When I write, I always do it with a strong sense of nostalgia in mind. It's like missing memories that weren't really mine. My grandparents moved from southern Italy to Belgium in the 1950s to work in coal mines. I grew up in a small Italian community in Belgium and always felt caught between the two cultures that shaped me.

With ANEMOIA, I'm trying to balance these two parts of my identity. I use traditional Italian drums and add rhythms that my ancestors from the southern regions danced to for many years. At the same time, my songs are influenced by the music I heard while growing up in this post-industrial coal mine region. This ranges from House and Techno from the nightlife scene to Turkish, Greek, or Moroccan music from fellow immigrant descendants.
