Giolì & Assia

Ethereal vocals and metallic handpan textures meet driving melodic techno. It is the sound of a luxury sunset on a volcanic island, both organic and high-octane.

Intro

Giolì & Assia create a sound that feels like it was born in the open air. Their music is a sophisticated intersection of live instrumentation and club-ready electronics, where the resonant, metallic chime of the handpan provides a unique organic counterpoint to deep, pulsing techno kicks. It is music that feels expensive yet raw, blending the polish of high-end production with the intimacy of live performance.

What truly sets them apart is the duality of their roles. They aren't just DJs; they are a self-contained orchestra. The interplay between Assia's breathy, pop-inflected vocals and Giolì's virtuosic command of the piano, cello, and percussion creates a cinematic tension. Their #DiesisLive sets, recorded in dramatic natural locations like volcanoes and craters, have defined their aesthetic: grand, elemental, and deeply rooted in their Sicilian heritage.

Start with 'Fire Hell and Holy Water' to hear their most ambitious songwriting, or dive into 'Starry Nights' for the quintessential example of how they weave melodic house around a haunting vocal hook. It is the perfect soundtrack for when you want the energy of a festival but the emotional depth of a private performance.
