Born and raised in London UK, Made By Pete is an artist, songwriter, producer and DJ who's catalogue has been celebrated by many of electronic music’s most notable publications and ﬁgureheads.

His first release of 2024 ‘Fires’ earned him an Essential New Tune from Pete Tong, preceding his busiest summer tour to date. Highlights included DJ sets at Hi, Ibiza with Black Coffee & Damian Lazarus, Pacha Ibiza with Bedouin and NYC’s infamous Brooklyn Mirage as well as returning to Blue Marlin Ibiza as a monthly resident for a second successive season. A summer EP on Bedouin’s Human By Default imprint featured a collaboration with Berlin live act Blindsmyth, showcasing MBP’s eclectic yet identifiable sound. Headline remixes of Camelphat & Elderbrook’s 2017 hit ‘Cola’ (Defected) and Vintage Culture ‘Find A Way’ will see out the year in style as he prepares to launch his own label in 2025….. ‘Life In Colour’

His 2023 single ‘Horizon Red’ ft. Zoe Kypri (Crosstown Rebels) gained global support from the world’s ﬁnest DJs after the live studio performance went viral, accumulating over 15 million views across key media platforms. Pete Tong named ‘Horizon Red’ as “one of the anthems of the summer in Ibiza” on BBC Radio 1 whilst the single was also hailed by DJ Mag as one of the ‘top tracks of 2023’ in their ﬁnal publication of the year, stating “when great music is undeniable, the world will recognise it and uplift it accordingly.”

Remixes followed from Crosstown Rebels head honcho Damian Lazarus and Black Coffee, who performed his remix live at Madison Square Garden in New York with Zoe Kypri joining him alongside a 12 piece orchestra. The success of Horizon Red lead to Made By Pete being named by Beatport as the “Top trending electronic act in the realm of melodic and organic house” in the ﬁrst half of 2023.

Made By Pete’s 6 year afﬁliation with seminal underground imprint Crosstown Rebels began in 2018 with his single ‘So Long’ featuring Jem Cooke. 3 singles and 2 EPs later, his music, along with his entertaining yet authentic performance style when behind the decks, have garnered him a global fanbase, facilitating a touring schedule that his seen him perform all over the world.

Although an already experienced DJ of nearly 20 years, 2023 was the year that Made By Pete broke through as an international DJ. He earned his ﬁrst Ibiza residency, playing 10 shows at Blue Marlin from May-September as well as making his debut at Chinois for Shen Presents with Franky Wah. Back home in London he joined Damian Lazarus, Bedouin and Mathew Jonson at Fabric London to celebrate 20 years of Crosstown Rebels and lined up alongside Ame & Henrik Schwarz at The Exchange.

Further aﬁeld, Made By Pete headlined Savaya in Bali and toured in the USA and India for the ﬁrst time. This all slotted around an extensive touring schedule that took him from the mountains of the Swiss alps to the beaches of Tulum, and just about everywhere in between.

With another huge single ready to drop and key landmark gigs in Ibiza and the USA already locked in the diary, 2024 is gearing up to be another standout year as Made By Pete's name continues to be lauded by those in the know.

Massimiliano Pagliara was born in Tricase (Lecce) in the deep south of Italy. Already as a child he listened to diverse types of music: rap, classical, reggae, dub and 60s rock'n'roll. Coming from this small village, he and his friends created a small musical world for themselves, spending a lot of time every day playing records in his basement and at private parties.
Upon moving to Milan in 1997, Massi embarked on an academic career and eventually earned his diploma in theatre, dance and choreography at the Civica Scuola di Teatro Paolo Grassi in 2001. While discovering the fashionable and alternative club scene of the city, his imagination was captured by experimental electronic music such as Aphex Twin, Boards Of Canada, Autechre and Mira Calix. Naturally these avant-garde sounds eventually found their way into Massi's original body of work.
After finishing school he ventured to Europes underground capital Berlin, where he continued his studies in contemporary dance, but also dived into the city's explosive techno nightlife, particularly the renowned OstGut club. Massi's interest in electronic music found its peak in 2003 when he finally began to pursue DJing with a passion. Ever since he's been spinning records across the world as well as some of the most popular underground venues in Germany – among them Tape Club, SchwuZ, Tresor, ://about blank, Robert Johnson, and of course Berghain / Panorama Bar, where he holds a residency.
Massi describes his style as an eclectic mix of house, disco, electro and techno – one may call it current-yet-classic. DJing has since led to productio. These days Massi lets his obsession with analog synths run wild – usually he's holed up in his apartment studio, working on his latest productions. 2011 saw the release of his debut album Focus For Infinity (on Live At Robert Johnson), followed by his sophomore LP With One Another in 2014. February 2017 saw his debut release on Ostgut Ton with the EP Time And Again. Since then, Massi has worked on various EPs, remixes, single track, all culminating in the late 2018 release of his third full-length solo album, titled Feel Live. February 2020 saw his debut on Munich's label Permanent Vacation with his new EP Nothing Stays In One Place For Long, in 2021 he's added the third part of his Uncanny Valley label trilogy with the EP Connection Lost Pt. 3. His latest album See You In Paradise releases in October 2022, once again with Permanent Vacation.
But he’s not always alone: Massi has been collaborating with luminaries around town such as gui.tar, Snax, Daniel Wang, Lemercier & The Lala By, Discodromo as well international artists. This lead to several side projects over the last decade, such as [sic!] with the two members of gui.tar, The Rimshooters with the Brazilian DJ and producer Rotciv, Egyptian Nipples with the multi-instrumentalist Jules Etienne, Banana Moon with Luigi Di Venere, Couple Looking with Chris Cruse to name just a few.
There's an ongoing lust for dialogue when it comes to Massimiliano Pagliara – be it through his collaborations and solo productions, during his DJ sets, with his own music label Funnuvojere Records or on a personal level. The world of dance, movement and communication is deeply rooted in Massi's life – when you know how to move yourself, you easily know how to move others.
