Songpot · Amsterdam Dance Event 2026
Dodi Palese
DJ, label head, and techno selector
Based in Italy · Plays most in South, Tulum, Barcelona
His sets sit in the house-to-techno lane: rolling drums, long blends, and a warm, functional low end. The label catalog he runs points to dubbed-out textures, classic grooves, and stripped club material rather than peak-time pressure.
More about Dodi Palese
Based in Italy, he runs What Ever Not and Engrave Ltd with dan Mela and Musumeci. Resident Advisor lists him on labels like Connaisseur Recordings, Recycle Records, Tonality, Compost Black Label, What Ever Not, AEON, Irma Records and Caduceus Empirical, which tells you he moves between Italian house, techno, and the more melodic end of club music.
