Stefano Ravasini's contribution to the distinctly sexy, hedonistic and upbeat sound of South Beach, Miami cannot be over-estimated. Like the mist spraying off the Atlantic, Stefano blended beats sift up and down Lincoln Road and from the beach to the highest open windows and balconies perched above the city, Clubs, Lounge, Private Islands and Downtown. If Stefano is everywhere, there's a good reason: he has branded his ubiquitous dance music beats that play in the most frequented boutiques, hotels, cafes and lounges on South Beach and the surrounding area. His weekend residency at Segafredo Cafe' in Brickell, Clevelander and Aerobar In South Beach is still relevant in a city with ever increasing competition for space in a DJ booth. His impressive multilingualism makes him an ambassadorial presence in a city famous for it's jet-setting international social nuclei, as he moves from Spanish to English to Portuguese to Russian in conversation as seamlessly as he moves from a clubbed-up remix of a The Cure song to detonating a full-on Soulful House bomb to slipping in what amounts to a sonic mickey with an elegiac rendition of early-80's Eurythmics. A natural audiophile, Stefano has been collecting records since his teens, in his native Ferrara, Italy. Now a young 40, the DJ still listens to no less than 2-3000 new songs and mixes a week, from all over the world. And because South Beach is an international destination, it helps that Stefano can keep clubgoers happy who want to hear the latest out of Detroit or Chicago, in the same room with those with Australian, Russian and British passports, too. Never one to revel in one's laurels, Stefano is about to expand his reach beyond his beloved South Beach. Already, from the boards to the boardrooms, Stefano is a quiet yet major player in the House music world, all over the world. He is a partner and producer for choice Italian record labels, Fragile and Spektra, as well as a distributor for the European label, Purple Music. And now, as if being Vogue magazine's official DJ for the fashion bible's super-selective parties; mixing and producing his own collections of CD compilations requested all over the world (Usa, Mexico, England, France, Russia, Italy, Israel, Sydney and Melbourne, just for mention some ); and fulfilling his weekly residency aren't enough, Stefano has recently been selected as the musical director for the Segafredo Group. Key to the development of the international cafe icon's musical format at Segafredo Bricell, Spazio Nero Nightclub, Segafredo Bal Harbour and , Espanola Way, not to mention creating thier official music mixes. He is annually Involved in the best WMC party In Miami and he Shared the Dj booth with many relevant Dj's like Jamie Lewis for the annual Miami WMC Purple Music Party, Cedric Gervais, Behrouz, JJ Flores, Granite And Phunk, Alfred Azzetto, Dj Disiple,Todd Terry, Mr V, Roland Clark, Scott Wozniak, Born To Funk, Brian Tappert, Dj Dove, Sebastian Gamboa, Chuck Love, Benny Benassi, Maurizio Gubellini, Ivano Bellini, George Morel, Dj LaFemme, and many many more And while it's been officially a decade since Stefano made Miami his home during the heady late-90s SoBe scene, this DJ looks forward to touring outside of the Miami area to reciprocate his global influences to the international hotspots where they were cultivated. No matter what is your mood ethnicity or heritage... he will make u dance!!!
