ILARIO ALICANTE (Cocoon.net)

Aka the ‘child prodigy’- Ilario Alicante has well and truly exploded onto the scene, as his alias suggests. Cultivating his passion for music since childhood, his legendary bedroom mixes finally landed him his first residency at Pachamama Club, Pisa where Ilario gained valuable experience behind the decks.

From here, he began to frequent the trendy clubs of Italy, Germany and Spain, and thanks to nights like Circoloco and Cocoon fell in love with house music with latin and minimal techno flavours. Inspiration came from artists like Richie Hawtin, Marco Corola, Ricardo Villalobos, Raresh and Luciano, and many of Ilario’s productions gained support from such international djs and producers in a very short space of time. But it was his breakthrough hit “Vacaciones en Chile” which catapulted Ilario to the fore. This track was played in all the most important clubs, from Watergate to DC10, followed up with another house bomb “Living in Africa” released on his new international label Cecille. It’s no coincidence that Ilario then became the youngest dj to set foot in the console of the infamous Time Warp Rotterdam in 2008.

With his adoption into the Cocoon family and the creation of his own record label (Deep Moves) Ilario is now one of the most sought after guests at the best clubs across the globe, cementing his status as one of the hottest and most talented artists in the world today. We couldn’t be more excited to see the child prodigy perform at the Mint Club.
