Luca-Dante Spadafora

Luca-Dante Spadafora, born in 1999 in Hörstein, Bavaria, is one of Germany's most exciting young DJ-producers. The German-Italian artist grew up in the Spessart region, graduated from the Gymnasium Alzenau, and discovered his passion for creative work early on – first through short films and stop-motion Brickfilms, earning two awards at the Bavarian Children and Youth Film Festival in 2018. He has been releasing music since 2017, spanning genres from techno and hardstyle to house and EDM. His breakthrough came in 2023 with a techno remix of "Mädchen auf dem Pferd" (from the 2014 film *Bibi & Tina*) – together with Niklas Dee and Octavian, the track reached No. 1 in both Germany and Austria and earned multiple Gold and Platinum certifications. He has now surpassed 900 million streams worldwide. Alongside collaborations with artists such as Niklas Dee, Tream, and Sääftig, and remixes for HBz, he has also been releasing music under the alias "Beats by Luca" since December 2023. He has announced his first official appearance at Pacha Ibiza – a major step into Europe's club elite.
