In Romagna the season of clubs, discos and electronic music events comes into full swing in the month of August. Among the many events on the Riviera this month, notizia.it has selected the best 5 artists not to be missed.
APOLLONIA

For years the Parisian trio Apollonia – formed by Dan Ghenacia, Shonky and Dyed Soundorom – has had the rare virtue of always surprising, just think of their sets in clubs such as Panorama Bar in Berlin and at Hï Ibiza, to the compilations for Fabric London (the 70th of the series) and for Enter.Ibiza and to the Tour À Tour album. Apollonia like to define their sound as a meeting halfway between "black music and white soul", a heartfelt and sincere homage to their declared reference point, Prince Rogers Nelson from Minneapolis. Their sets are never mechanical b2b, but make them look more like a real band, in which it is difficult to distinguish who does what: they always move between tradition and innovation, with a basic coherence that has few parallels elsewhere.
Thursday 15 August – Good morning Classic Rimini
BLACK COFFEE
Black Coffee is a true national icon; first resident in the history of Hï Ibiza, number one club in the world according to the Top 100 Clubs of DJ Mag magazine, boasts collaborations with Drake, Alicia Keys, Beyoncé and P. Diddy; in 2022 he further consolidated his fame by winning a Grammy Award - the Oscars of Music - in the Dance Electronic Album category, last year he performed at Madison Square Garden in New York, demonstrating once again his extraordinary global quality and his ability to inspire fans around the world.

ENRICO SANGIULIANO
For many years Enrico Sangiuliano has occupied a place of the highest order in the world panorama of DJs, thanks to a very linear and coherent path which is finding further confirmation in his recording project NINETOZERO, a temporary label which will stop once publication number zero has been released: in May this year we reached the sixth.
Sangiuliano is a complete artist who never stops evolving, asking questions through music and exploring new sonic dimensions. Whether it's remixing classics or climbing the charts, proposing high-class tracks for clubs or festivals, the Italian DJ and producer is an undisputed point of reference from which it is truly impossible to ignore.
Saturday 17 August – Cocoricò Riccione
TONY BOY
On May 31st “Sospiro” was released, the latest single from Tony Boy, the “goat” of the Italian rap scene.
