Giuseppe Ottaviani

On May 15, 2026 at EXIL Club in Vösendorf, Austria, Giuseppe Ottaviani brings his trademark trance to an intimate club setting. Trained as a classical pianist in Viterbo before turning to electronic music as a teenager, he first made his mark at the end of the 1990s with NU NRG alongside Andrea Ribeca and Giacomo Miccichè, a project tied to the early 2000s European trance wave and Vandit releases. Since 2005 he has carved out a solo path defined by melodic drive and patient build-ups, blending uplift, progressive shades and a tech-edged punch with clear themes and long-form structures.

His catalog runs from Go! (2009), Magenta (2013) and Alma (2016) to Evolver (2019), then the three-part Horizons series in 2022. Across the years he has teamed up with Paul van Dyk, John O’Callaghan, Ferry Corsten, Solarstone and Armin van Buuren, and joined Solarstone in the Pure NRG project. Expect a set that draws on these productions and collaborations, flowing between instrumental cuts and vocals, stacking tension then release with the precise musicality that has taken his sets to festival stages and dedicated trance rooms worldwide.
