Anticipation is growing for the return to Italy of Parov Stelar: After the super-sold-out in Milan two years ago, the DJ, musician and artistic producer will be in our country next Friday 10 June at Carroponte in Sesto San Giovanni. An appointment that promises to be unmissable and richer than ever: opening at the Parov Stelar concert, will perform DJ Mena. Tickets are available from Ticketone and points of sale Vivaticket.
DJ Mena, class of '74, already passionate about art and painting, began his musical journey at the age of 14, immediately directing his style towards blends of electronic and rock sounds. An all-round approach to music that defines the traits of an eclectic artist: during his sets, he starts with nu jazz, samba jazz from the 1940s, up to the most current deep-house and tech-house, passing through dubstep, electro swing and house jazz.
Parov Stelar, the king of electro swing, is the most successful Austrian artist on the international scene to date. In 2004, he founded his own record label, Etage Noir Recordings, for which, in the same year, he recorded Kiss Kiss, the EP that established the musician as the founding father of electro swing. Each of his albums has been a success and the Austrian artist is now riding the wave with a new record, Live at Pukkelpop released on 11 March. His performances are in great demand all over the world: each concert is a real spectacle during which the audience is enraptured by a continuous play of light, sound and visuals with attention to detail. His songs have been used for over 700 compilations and have provided the soundtrack for numerous advertising campaigns, including those of Chrysler, Audi, Bacardi, Paco Rabanne, Fiat, Microsoft. His YouTube videos boast more than 100,000 views and, together with his band, he has performed numerous sold-out shows at all the major venues worldwide. His successes include 6 Amadeus Austrian Music Awards, stable appearances on the US and Canadian iTunes charts and more than 400,000 copies sold for his albums.
