About Layton Giordani
Layton Giordani was born in 1992 in New York City and raised in the bustling metropolis that would become the foundation of his sound. During his childhood and adolescence, he grew up blocks away from the east coast shore and was very keen on surfing and skating. Solely focused on his passion for music from the age of just 13, Giordani's path forever changed at 19 years old after watching legendary DJ Danny Tenaglia perform live at Pacha NYC. Deeply inspired by this formative experience, Layton began to master his craft behind the decks, teaching himself how to DJ and putting in full-time work in the studio as well as local nightclubs. He even locked down the opportunity to play at Pacha a few times as a teenager during their occasional teen nights, putting him in a prime spot to hone his craft and network with other techno lovers.
Giordani's breakthrough moment came when he met Drumcode owner and techno heavyweight Adam Beyer at Pacha NYC. During their first encounter, Layton gave Adam a USB filled with his original music—six months later, Adam played one of his tracks at Awakenings Festival, jumpstarting his career. This became a frequent practice for the young artist, as he confidently shared his music with whoever he could, never hesitating despite his young age. Landing a pivotal residency at Brooklyn's legendary Output NY in 2015, Giordani's talent flourished and his career steam-rolled into quick maturity. Thanks to the faith instilled in him by the Output team and the mentorship of Adam Beyer, Layton turned heads and began making a name for himself through his deft touch and sharp ear.
His first mega release "Careless Suggestions" on Phobiq Records in 2014 catapulted his name into the limelight, receiving massive support from Deadmau5 on the Ultra main stage at WMC, airplay on BBC Radio 1, and inclusion on Carl Cox's notorious Global Radio show. The track stayed in the Beatport Techno Top 100 chart for over half a year. In 2015, his "Never Forgotten" EP on Carl Cox and Jon Rundell's Intec label went straight to #10 on the Beatport Techno chart. In 2016, he signed to Adam Beyer's Truesoul imprint, and his "Unspoken" EP peaked at #3 on Beatport, followed shortly by "Rivington," his contribution to Drumcode's celebrated A-Sides series.
The year 2017 marked Giordani's seismic arrival onto the global techno scene with his aptly-named debut album
Where It Begins on Drumcode. The 12-track LP received critical acclaim from artists, new fans, and industry specialists alike, establishing his position as a contemporary techno legend. Just months after the album's release, he collaborated with his hero Danny Tenaglia on the standout track "Live Again," which is still considered by many to be a modern-day Drumcode classic. In 2018, he teamed up with Beyer and Chicago legend Green Velvet for "Space Date," which became the sound of the summer and matched the prosper of his touring schedule, which now included main stage appearances at Drumcode Festival, Melt! Festival, Warehouse Project, Motion Bristol, Resistance Ibiza, and Awakenings.
His 2019 hit "Chrome" dominated Drumcode's A-Sides Vol. 8 compilation, while his collaboration with Green Velvet on "Fuzion" marked his inaugural release for Relief Records. In 2020, Giordani delivered his most complete and robust offering to date with his sophomore album
New Generation. Crafting a critically acclaimed sound through inspirations far removed from techno, the hyper-talented producer presented an opus that favored ambiences and immersive city soundscapes. The 11-track album marked a decisive pivot in Drumcode's production output, advocating Layton's nouveau strain of modernized techno in its most tailored form.
Throughout his career, Giordani has released monumental collaborations including the high-energy "Rabbit Hole" with HI-LO, his "Hyperworld" EP, and collaborative remixes with Green Velvet and Patrick Topping. In 2024, he released 10 standout tracks, including his remix of "Last Night" with Anyma, which rocketed to #1 overall on Beatport and surpassed 100,000 daily Spotify streams at its peak. His versatility and ability to reimagine music for a new era have garnered widespread acclaim and cemented his reputation as one of techno's most innovative producers.
Entering 2025, Giordani stood as one of the most influential names in house and techno. He kicked off the year with "Act of God" featuring Linney and Sarah de Warren on John Summit's Experts Only label, a track that has neared 3 million streams. He followed with a powerful remix of John Summit's "Focus" and "At Night" with Anyma, which surpassed 3 million streams in under two months. His music receives consistent global radio support, including heavy rotation from Pete Tong on BBC Radio 1, MistaJam on Capital and KISS, and Diplo's Revolution on SiriusXM.
In late 2025, amid a landmark year, Giordani announced the launch of his label MADMINDS in partnership with Armada Music. The NYC-based imprint is designed to be a home for brilliantly unconventional minds and a place for bold ideas, fearless creativity, and people who embrace out-of-the-box thinking. The label's sonic ethos delivers a genre-melding journey with an otherworldly experience that flows seamlessly from music selection and release artwork to live production. His collaboration with Green Velvet "When It Kicks" was released on MADMINDS in early 2025, showcasing the label's vision for pushing boundaries and challenging conventions.
Giordani's touring resume is nothing short of extraordinary, with performances at world-class festivals and venues including Coachella (Yuma Tent), EDC Las Vegas (closing sets at Circuit Grounds), Ultra Music Festival Miami, Tomorrowland, Space Miami (headlining sets), Awakenings Festival, Drumcode Festival, The Warehouse Project Manchester, Amnesia Ibiza, and countless sold-out shows across North America, Europe, and beyond. His live performances have become legendary for their intensity, technical precision, and ability to take crowds on immersive sonic journeys. With over 2 million monthly listeners on Spotify and a ranking among the upper echelon of techno's elite, Layton Giordani represents the new school of techno—a sound rooted in New York's underground scene but with a vision that extends far into the future. His unapologetic approach to composition and insatiable thirst for knowledge ensure his seminal status as one of techno's most exciting and influential voices.
