LAYTON GIORDANI
Layton Giordani continues to reign as a trailblazer and now label boss of MADMINDS in the house and techno world, solidifying his presence at the forefront of the global scene. A New York native, Giordani’s journey into electronic music began in his teens, inspired by the legendary sets of Danny Tenaglia at Pacha NY. This profound experience drove him to pursue a career behind the decks, eventually securing a pivotal residency at Output NY in Brooklyn. Here, Giordani's talent flourished, catching the eyes of notable figures in the techno scene.
Giordani’s big break came under the mentorship of Adam Beyer, the techno heavyweight behind the Drumcode label. With Beyer’s support, Layton’s debut ‘Unspoken’ EP on Truesoul, followed quickly by his debut on Drumcode with Rivington, marked his arrival as a rising force in the techno scene. His 2017 debut album ‘Where It Begins’ earned widespread acclaim, cementing his status as a significant player.
In 2024, Giordani released 10 massive tracks, including his remix of ‘Last Night’ with Anyma which rocketed to #1 overall on Beatport and surpassed 100,000 daily streams on Spotify at its peak. Prior to this, ‘PATT (Party All The Time)’ with Adam Beyer and Green Velvet also topped the charts. Other notable releases from the year include ‘Paranoid’, Giordani’s debut on the Experts Only label, his remix of Dom Dolla’s ‘girl$’, and first official remix of deadmau5’s ‘Strobe.’
Coming into 2025, Giordani has become one of the most influential names in the house and techno scene, rocketing into the year with ‘Act of God’ (nearing 3MM streams), and followed up by a monster remix of John Summit’s ‘Focus’—and ‘At Night’ with Anyma, passing the 3MM stream mark just shy of two months post-release. Giordani’s tracks receive consistent support across global radio stations, including heavy rotations from Pete Tong on BBC Radio 1, Mista Jam on Capital, KISS, and Diplo’s Revolution XM radio.
Fresh off a series of sold-out shows and high-profile festival plays—including headlining gigs in NYC and Space Miami, the Yuma Tent at Coachella, and closing sets at EDC Las Vegas and elrow UNVRS Ibiza—Giordani enters his 3-continent fall tour and new era as label boss full of momentum, further cementing his place among the genre's elite.
