Collectiv and Liquified present Layton Giordani

New York's Layton Giordani stands firm as one of the planet's most popular tastemakers from techno's new school. His pioneering musical vision serves as a contemporary voice for the passionate younger generation of cutting edge electronic music fans.

A studio obsessive with absolute dedication to his craft, Layton's diverse repertoire of sounds today presents a new forward facing soundscape of hi energy techno and underground house aimed firmly at the peak time dance floor.

Inspired by the profound experience he had in his teens, of watching the masterful Danny Tenaglia rock Pacha NY all night long, Layton began to hone his own skills behind the decks, eventually landing a pivotal residency at Brooklyn's iconic clubbing institution Output NY. It was here Layton's abilities quickly sharpened and where he began to catch the eye of the A list guests playing the venue each week. It was thanks to the initial faith Output instilled in him that Layton then began making a name for himself far beyond America's east coast.

Under the mentorship of Adam Beyer, Layton honed his talents further by closely studying the cardinal cuts from techno's illustrious and rich history. The affiliation resulted in his first EP, Unspoken being signed to Beyer's Truesoul label which was shortly followed by Rivington, Layton's debut release on Drumcode, the label that would then become Layton's home.
