who is melo

Born and raised near Naples in South Italy, Melo was hooked on electronic music from a young age, drawn to the raw pulse of techno and the hypnotic energy of European underground sounds. Since landing in Queensland, he’s been steadily carving out his name across the Australian underground – from intimate bush doofs to packed-out club sets and major regional festivals.

life lately

2024 was a breakout year for Melo, with performances across North and Far North Queensland at events like NYX Festival, Spring Equinox, Amped NYE, Techno in the Tropics, and co-headlining every Joyn Us event.

In 2025, Melo continued to build momentum with standout sets at NYX Festival, Berlin Calling and The Void in FNQ, and a well-received performance at NEXUS at Tempo Nightclub on the Gold Coast – marking his first appearance in Southeast Queensland.

what’s next

Melo is preparing for back to back sets in North Queensland this July at nightclubs Otherwise and 237 Flinders, before heading to Europe to recharge with friends and family. He won’t be resting for too long though, with another event already booked in his home town of Campagna, South Italy.

what you can expect

While techno remains his foundation, Melo isn’t afraid to move across genres if needed. His sets blend deep, driving rhythms with groovy European cuts. Expect thunderous kicks, hypnotic loops, and warehouse pressure that locks you in from start to finish.
