Francesco Strippoli is an Italian Producer/DJ hailing from Bari, “Armonics” is his musical moniker and his way of life. His musical journey began with three years of piano studies as a teenager, but the passion for electronic music and DJing quickly became his main focus. He started playing as a DJ when he was a boy, and after years of performing at local parties and radio shows, he developed his musical career self-taught. He has been influenced and enriched by electronic music from the eighties to the present and is fascinated by the Italo-disco sound of the early 80s, new wave, electro, synthpop, acid house and space disco. His music is a mix of retro-futuristic and cosmic vibes, inspired by cyberpunk culture and sci-fi movies. His first EP, titled “Human,” was released by Slow Motion Records in December 2016. Over the years, he has written and produced music for Bordello a Parigi, Funnuvojere Records, Giorgio Records, Lunar Disko, and Modern Magic. He has remixed artists such as Alexander Robotnick (Mya & The Mirror), GAG, Alessandro Parisi, Evolution (L&L), and Diana Est “Tenax,” elevating the 80s atmosphere to a new realm of the present. His latest EP, a 12" on Bordello a Parigi titled “Future Echoes,” was released in March 2024. In November 2024, his remix of “L’Hacienda” by Italoconnection feat. Alex Rossi & Bunny X was released on the French label Kwaidan Records as a special tribute to the legendary 80s club.
