Limited press.

Ancient soul born in Albania, raised in Italy and now Berlin-based. With over 20 years of dedication to music, his journey has been shaped by a deep passion, creativity, and a commitment to sharing his love for sound with others.

Over the years, Rinaldo has had the privilege of performing at many respected clubs and events across Europe, including The Lion and Lamb (London), Golden Gate (Berlin), Zone Club (Prishtina), Magic Bar (Rome), Tenax (Florence), Auberge (Lugano), Eden Club (Bucharest), Shine On You (Turin), Kwartz (Nice), and PriBeats Ensomnia (Prishtina). His debut at UNUM Festival 2024 (Pine Stage, Shengjin, Albania) was a special moment that reinforced his connection with audiences. Known for his ability to listen to the crowd and create a shared experience, Rinaldo strives to bring energy and connection to the dancefloor in a humble and genuine way.

As a producer, Rinaldo has been fortunate to release music on several respected labels, including YAY @yayevent, @roraprodltd, Bleu Ciel, Wax @isgud, Druzhba, IRENIC (Roger Gerresen), and @elephant-moon (John Dimas). His sound blends various electronic genres, influenced by artists who have inspired him over the years, such as Plastikman, Aphex Twin, Ricardo Villalobos, Craig Richards, and dj´s as Francesco Del Garda.
Always seeking to contribute to the present and future of music, Rinaldo founded his own label, 432HERTZ (@432hertzparty), as a way to support and shape the community around him.

Through his work, Rinaldo remains deeply grateful for the opportunities he's had and continues to be driven by the belief that music is a journey of connection, growth, and shared experience.
