The self-titled “oldest DJ in Italy”, is the founding father of the Cosmic disco sound.

This led to Daniele’s long residency at the Cosmic club by Lake Garda that opened in Italy in 1979. At this infamous, hedonistic club Baldelli would be simultaneously spinning, triggering drum machines and samplers, blending batucada samba with Kr...
