I am just writing looking for a bit of info. I am thinking of moving to Italy for a few months next summer and would love to dj over there but I'm not 2 sure what the dance scene is like over there. I was over 3 times before but was a bit too young to fully check out the scene. Of the clubs I did manage to get to, it seemed that the main styles of dance that are prominent are techno and house.
My favoured style is prog trance/trance and I am trying to find out if there is a market for prog trance/trance dj's over there. I also do house and hard trance from time to time but would love to play my favoured style over ther. I am planning to go to Rimini which is supposedly the nightlife centre of Italy? Anyway, if anyone could help me out with a bit of info about the club scene in Italy, i would be very grateful. Cheers. |

I have been few times on holiday in the Rimini area but haven't really been clubbing. Mainly they play house and techno and the biggest parties are centered in the clubs outside cities.
I'm going to Riccione this summer and I know that there is a club called "Peter Pan". They have got dj's like PvD, Carl Cox, Timo Maas etc. playing there so it's not just house that italians listen.
There are also lot of clubs that play that ty mtv crap for teens. Age limit in the clubs is propably 16 so there are lot of drunken young people shouting the dj to play something "real" music. So be prepared for that.:D |

| Apart from Nu NRG, I can't really name any big progressive / trance DJs from Italy. It doesn't say everything, but I think it surely is an indication of the liveliness (or lack thereof) of the progressive / trance scene in the country. |

In Italy there isn't a good EDM culture. Here "they" listen only house (low quality house...) and Italo-Dance. In the clubs "they" dancing only House!!!
