Ari Denaro

DJ Ari Denaro is a Berlin-based DJ and artist whose journey through underground music began in 2001 with his debut at London’s legendary Slimelight. Over more than two decades he has developed a distinctive sound shaped by his roots in punk, post-punk, gothic, EBM and industrial, evolving into a powerful fusion of progressive psytrance and techno.

Since 2009 he has been a resident at Berlin’s KitKatClub, where he created Psycho – a club concept built around the meeting point of psychedelic music, techno and alternative underground culture. Psycho: where psy meets techno.

His sets move between hypnotic grooves, driving techno, psychedelic textures and dark electronic atmospheres – an immersive journey rather than a single genre. He has played across Europe, the USA, Mexico, Japan, Thailand, India and Israel, and has been a resident at Wave-Gotik-Treffen in Leipzig since 2012.
