ALPI

ALPI is the techno duo of Daniele Alessi and Gabriel Pivaro from Bolzano, Italy. The pair began their collaboration in early 2014, united by their passion for vinyl records and synthesizers. Since their first release in January 2016, they have built a catalog spanning seven years across labels including Planet Rhythm, End Of Perception, and TRULE.

Their sound centers on peak time and driving techno, often incorporating raw, deep, and hypnotic elements alongside dub techno and classic electro influences. ALPI's productions feature tribal timbres and ritualistic atmospheres that create what they describe as a primordial dimension. Their releases on Planet Rhythm align with the label's reputation for powerful dancefloor techno, while their work demonstrates a consistent evolution from their 2016 debut through their most recent 2023 output. The duo's approach combines the driving energy needed for peak time sets with the deeper, more meditative qualities that work in extended DJ journeys.
