VLTRA, an Italian electronic duo consisting of Riccardo Anzalone and Samuele A. Giambona, began their musical career in 2012, initially inspired by artists like Avicii, Hardwell, and Tiësto. Over time, they transitioned from mainstream electronic music to the underground techno scene in Palermo, ultimately developing a distinctive house and tech-house sound. 

Their breakthrough came in 2021 with the release of "Zilla," a collaboration with Kyle Walker on Lee Foss' Repopulate Mars label, which reached #3 on the Beatport Overall chart. This success led to their debut performance at an Ibiza showcase.

In 2023, they solidified their presence in the industry with major collaborations, including tracks with The Martinez Brothers and Loco Dice, and saw chart-topping success with releases like "Flowcito" and "Legacy," which hit #1 on Beatport. That same year, they headlined prestigious events such as Tomorrowland and Elrow, closing out with a New Year's performance at Cocoricò in Rimini.

By 2024, VLTRA expanded globally, performing at top venues like London's Drumsheds and making their debut in Asia and North America. With continued support from industry leaders and an ever-evolving sound, VLTRA has established themselves as a prominent force in the global electronic music scene.

VLTRA's music is supported by Joseph Capriati, The Martinez Brothers, Marco Carola, Ilario Alicante, Fisher, Jamie Jones, Michael Bibi, Loco Dice, Dubfire, Chris Lake, Wade, Lee Foss, John Summit, and many others.

➖Intro
When lockdown came into place I as many began missing the raves I once knew, one of my friends began dj-ing and I thought maybe I’ll give it a try! I then bought my first set of decks SB3’ and began to enjoy dj-ing myself through those long days and nights I progressed my style into predominantly House, Tech house and Disco. I later bought my second set of decks, Pioneer XZ’ which I still use to this day!

➖Where have I played?
Having played at Bars and Clubs across the UK and even making it to Kavos I now play at multiple venues! 
Some including the great Astoria Nightclub Portsmouth where I had my first gig, around 400 people came as it was for a Launch Party for the Ski Society and eventhough being very nervous beforehand it went perfect! I have played at lots of other venues during my time dj-ing including Moonshine Bar Portsmouth, Curiosity Bar Atherton, The Plaza Atherton, Golden Bee rooftop Bar- Shoreditch London, The Peacock Liverpool, The Lawn Club Manchester, The Box Manchester, Zaranda Bar Didsbury, The Bierkeller Manchester, Seven Brothers Manchester. The last two summers I have played in Kavos, Corfu (Greece) at different bars and nightclubs including Pulse Bar, Island Beach, Maddisons, and Venue Nightclub. 

➖Events 
I am working on more of my own events soon, my first event I organised was a night at The Yellow Sub in Liverpool.

➖Influences!
I have many influences in the music industry, one of my favourite artists is Michael Bibi, I love what he has achieved and done with Solid Grooves and how he has associated with different artists to showcase his style and form a family with different artists across the world within Solid Grooves. I love his sound and style and he really inspires me having been to his events! Another favourite artist for me is Armand Van Helden, I love the way he uses samples from previous tracks and gives them a modern twist. Some of my favourite songs include My My My, Wings, Anyway, and You don’t even know me which always get the party going! Some of my other influences are The Brothers Macklovitch ( Also part of A Trak and Chromeo I enjoy watching their sets. Another one of my favourite DJ’s is Joseph Capriati, I love how he uses effects to loop songs before the drops. 

➖What’s next! 
Now progressing to the future I am hoping to travel more and more and expand my DJ career further building my own events brand, playing at different unexpected venues for large crowds and producing my own tracks! I also have lots of ideas for remix’ so keep an eye out! I am working on my own upcoming event which is taking place in may and I am really excited for it!

Love and thanks for the support
