Cinquedea

Born and raised in the underground nightlife of Rome, Cinquedea made his mark as a dynamic force in the European electronic music scene. Drawing inspiration from his city’s dualities—ancient beauty clashing with modern grit—he fuses cutting-edge techno, off-kilter electro, and cinematic soundscapes in sets that transport listeners from raw basement clubs to open-air festivals. His journey began as a teenage crate-digger, sharpening his turntable skills before graduating to modular synths and analogue gear, crafting signature tracks with both edge and elegance.

Since his debut EP in 2016, Cinquedea has released on respected labels such as Modular Minds, Interzona, and Paradox, earning acclaim for his precise production and boundary-pushing live performances. As founder of the collective Notte Oscura, he’s championed emerging talent and curated electrifying events across Italy and beyond. Whether behind the decks or in the studio, Cinquedea’s sound pays homage to the past while relentlessly pushing the future, ensuring every appearance is an unpredictable and unforgettable experience.
