Cioz (Stil Vor Talent/Italy)

Bergamo-born and Berlin-based CIOZ is the real deal: His music is bubbling with life and

rich in intrinsic musicality as he pours his heart and soul into the creative process,

unafraid to break with convention.

In the studio,

this inimitable style holds its own. CIOZ’s EPs have landed on lauded labels like

Crosstown Rebels, Monaberry or Frau Blau, while his contribution to the legendary

“Body Language” series by Get Physical and his full-length album “Supermassive

Whole” on home-base Stil vor Talent are testament to his artistic depth. His remix work

speaks volumes, too, as reinterpretations for heavyweights Diplo, Damian Lazarus,

Oliver Koletzki, Patrice Bäumel, and Gui Boratto always transport CIOZ’s distinctive

touch – at once respectful of the originals, yet characterized by his very own vision and

playful personality. Traits that are equally valued by a range of collaborators like Giorgia

Angiuli, Super Flu or Fabian Krooss.

In the booth, CIOZ’s diverse DJ sets shine just as brightly as his productions do: From

the magical cosmos that’s Fusion Festival and the dusty plains of AfrikaBurn to standout

clubs across the globe, CIOZ has brought his infectious energy to institutions like Bar

Americas in Guadalajara, Stereo Bar in Montreal, Klein in Istanbul, Mia in Tulum, or Hive

in Zurich. His reach doesn’t stop there though, with multiple tours across Asia, South

Africa, Australia and New Zealand under his belt.

What’s next, you may ask? Don’t worry as one thing’s for sure: A boundless array of

innovative ideas, the razor-sharp skillset to match them and, most importantly, a deeply

positive approach to creativity mean that CIOZ has plenty of surprises up his sleeve.
