PLAYING PYTECA + PYTECA SELECTA (ROUGHRADIO.LIVE)

Vincenzo Pizzi is a music producer, sound designer and founder of Pyteca. With a background rooted in experimental sound research and a degree with honors in Sound Design from IED Rome, he has developed a sonic language that fuses techno with the emotional depth of IDM, ambient influences and refined sound design.

Currently lecturer in Sound Design and mentor at IED, Pizzi moves between academic research, artistic experimentation and advanced production techniques. His work spans immersive audiovisual experiences, live performances, and club-oriented releases — always characterized by a meticulous approach to rhythm, sound spatialization, and timbral evolution.

As curator of Pyteca label, he promotes a vision of electronic music that is both refined and radical — where synthetic and organic elements meet to explore hybrid emotional states. His discography includes introspective compositions and rhythmic explorations often featured on platforms such as Mixmag, XLR8R, RaiRadio3, i-D Vice, and Noisey.

Vincenzo Pizzi also composes and designs sound for audiovisual and media projects, creating original music for campaigns, runway shows, fashion films and high-end digital content. His sonic identity — a refined blend of tension, minimalism, and emotional charge — is often chosen to enhance visual narratives that demand character and depth. Combining electronic textures, pulsating rhythms, and cinematic atmospheres, his sound resonates with the aesthetic codes of contemporary fashion, design, and moving image storytelling.

A passionate record collector with an eclectic taste spanning jazz, reggae, hip-hop, rock, and, of course, house and techno, Elisa Bee @xelisabeex is equally captivated by the rich sounds of the past and the experimental waves shaping the future of music. Moving fluidly through ever-evolving creative landscapes, she has been DJing for over 17 years—starting in her native Sardinia before making her mark in Milan.

Elisa’s productions have garnered international recognition, earning airplay on dancefloors and radio stations worldwide. Her music has been released on esteemed labels such as Symbolism, Hardgroove, Truncate, Unknown To The Unknown, Balkan Vinyl, I Love Acid, and ANAØH. In recent years, her sound has evolved towards techno with a strong 90s influence, driven by her deep love for hardgroove. Her latest projects include a collaborative EP with Detroit legend Rolando, released in late 2024, alongside numerous remixes and solo tracks.

Resident Advisor has recently recognised her as one of the finest selectors and producers in Italy: "[...] exploring and then refining a style of techno that has that rare, hard to put your finger on quality: a soulful reverence that pays homage to the old days and the originators without just copying them".

As a resident DJ at Tempio Del Futuro Perduto in Milan, Elisa’s all-night sets are described as immersive journeys: “acid, very groovy, sometimes dark, always energetic, and dreamy towards the end.” A regular at Berghain since 2023, she has showcased her signature sound through some of the most respected podcast series, including HATE, Awakenings, Slam Radio, and RA Podcast.
