Alex Avanzato

As a leading music executive, he is redefining the global electronic landscape by merging artist development, brand vision, and cultural impact. Raised in Sicily and ultimately rooted in Ibiza, he built a formidable network within the techno and house circuit, collaborating over the years with key figures like Steve Lawler, Luigi Madonna, and the FUSE London collective. Currently, as the General Manager of Beatside Bookings, he leads the growth strategy for a roster that includes heavyweight names such as Sara Landry, Chris Stussy, Rossi., Elli Acula, Sidney Charles, and BIIA, while also collaborating with After Caposile.

A major turning point in his career arrived through a powerful creative alliance with Spanish DJ and producer Indira Paganotto. Together, they launched ARTCORE Records, scaling it from a label into a global hybrid movement encompassing events, fashion, and community. Recognized as the "Best Label to Watch" at the 2025 Beatport Awards, ARTCORE played a defining role in introducing the new Psy-Techno genre category to the platform, with both recognized as pioneers of the sound's global rise.

Under his direction, the brand has taken over stages at world-renowned festivals including Tomorrowland, Monegros, and Mysteryland, and cemented its presence with a 19-date residency at Hï Ibiza in 2026, culminating in a full takeover at UNVRS Ibiza. Expanding this universe further, he co-founded ARTOPIA Studios in 2025 as a strategic hub for content creation and next-generation projects in Ibiza. Ultimately, his approach moves beyond traditional management to focus on building expansive cultural ecosystems, shaping the future of electronic music.
