Italian Dj and Record Collector based in Venice. Booking & Info: [email protected]

Midnight Mug returns with Episode #04 ☕️🌙 The first hour features a selection by Zaffa, followed by a beautiful guest session from my dear friend Marcel Vogel — DJ, producer and founder of Lumberjacks In Hell label — which I’m honored to welcome. When I first listened to the mix he sent me, I was honestly blown away. You can truly feel his most intimate side throughout the whole journey: warm, deep, soulful and full of emotion. A beautiful session from one of the finest selectors around.

Midnight Mug – Episode 03 ☕ A late-night space built for slow listening, where the mood stays warm and each track is given the time to reveal its character. No rush, just a steady flow designed to accompany the quiet hours. The opening hour features a personal selection moving through soulful textures, disco-leaning grooves and deep crate discoveries. The second hour welcomes @GinoFunkGrasso, Italian DJ and passionate collector of black music, appreciated for his elegant approach to disco, funk and boogie. He’s also behind the G&D edits alongside Dino Angioletto and the Grasso Brothers project with his brother Federico Grasso, both shaped by deep digging and timeless selections. Ease into it, keep your mug close, and let the music carry you through two hours of intimate grooves.

Midnight Mug – Episode 02 ☕ This project was born from the idea of recreating that warm, late-night radio feeling — the kind where the music unfolds slowly and every record has its moment to breathe. As always, the first hour is my selection. Expect a journey through soulful music and deep grooves pulled from the crates. For the second hour I’m very happy to welcome Delfonic as our guest. A brilliant producer and one of the sharpest ears in the underground, also working in A&R with Wordandsound, helping shape the flow of records reaching DJs and record shops around the world. Settle in, pour yourself something warm and enjoy two hours of warm grooves and deep frequencies.

Midnight Mug – Episode 01 ☕️ A late-night listening session built around warm grooves, deep digging, and intimate musical storytelling. I’ll be guiding you through the first hour of the journey. For the second hour, I’m honored to welcome Al Kent — DJ, producer, digger, and founder of @MillionDollarDisco A cult figure in the underground disco world, shaped by early encounters with New York’s disco scene. Not a hit maker, but a curator of sonic memory. One of those rare figures preserving the DNA of club culture beyond trends and hype cycles. Pour yourself something warm. The mug is ready.

Recorded live at Café 1001, London on Friday, October 3rd, this mix captures the final 3 hours of my all-night-long DJ set. A journey from warm grooves to peak-time energy, closing vibes, and everything in between.
