Giri, also known as Gi Napoletano, hails from Naples and delved into electronic music at 13. Influenced by Detroit's Second Wave and the UK techno scene, his sound evolved. He's released tracks on various labels and shared stages with notable artists. In May 2020, amidst Italy's first lockdown, he founded Antiterra, a label embodying the sci-fi concept of a theoretical planet in Earth's orbit, forever eclipsed by the sun.

SPAWNcast 032 - Giri

Giri, also known as Gi Napoletano, was born in 1985 in Naples and discovered electronic music composition at a very young age through a video game: Music 2000.
From that moment on, he simultaneously pursued his passion for synthesizers, sound design, DJing, and vinyl collecting.
He began performing regularly in the clubs of his city when the Neapolitan scene was heavily influenced by house and minimal music, but his natural inclinations led his sound toward darker and more industrial frontiers, such as the second wave of Detroit and '90s/2000s UK techno. Over time, these influences helped shape his distinctive, deep, and hypnotic sound—often centered on complex and intricate textures while maintaining a strong focus on groove and rhythmic power—an unmistakable signature in both his productions and DJ sets.

He has released several EPs under the pseudonyms Gi Napoletano, D+N (with Johnny Dama), and Napoel (with Louiel) on labels such as Labrynth, New Rhythmic, Naked Lunch, and others.
In 2019, the first EPs under the name Giri were released by Evod, Awry, and Prophet, and in 2020, he founded his own label, Antiterra Records.
A year later, in July 2021, he released his first concept album, Antichthon, a 19-track project, on the label that had influenced him the most over the years: Jeff Mills' Axis Records, as part of The Escape Velocity project.

Following this, he continued to release EPs, remixes, and singles as Giri for No Signal, Molecular, Immaterial.Archives, Illegal Alien, Observant, Tienmcateteng, Subsist, and, of course, Antiterra, where a new EP is set to be released at the end of March.
For the past few years, in addition to his work in the studio as a producer and in clubs as a DJ, he has created and continues to run MidiMeeting, the Neapolitan synth jam now permanently hosted at PunkTank.
