The electronic dance music landscape is on the verge of welcoming a remarkable young talent. Thirteen-year-old DJ prodigy Dario Di Bona is poised to unveil his debut single, “Jaded,” on March 21st, under the esteemed record label Tankfloor/WMG. This release marks the commencement of what is anticipated to be an extraordinary career.
Hailing from Padua, Italy, and raised in Geneva, Switzerland, Dario’s passion for electronic music ignited at the age of four. His fascination with DJing began during a vacation in Ibiza, where he was captivated by a performance at a beach club. A few months later, an exhilarating experience in Courmayeur, Italy, further solidified his aspiration to pursue this art form. That very day, he approached his father with a request for a mixer, determined to hone his skills.
Dario made his debut performance at a beach club in Italy at just seven years old, captivating an audience of 1,000 attendees. His career trajectory rapidly ascended from that point. By the age of eight, he debuted in Dubai and was featured in an interview with the renowned Italian DJ Albertino on Radio Deejay. This milestone year also included his first major event, a New Year’s Eve celebration in Venice, Italy, where he enthralled an audience of 18,000. His burgeoning fame was further highlighted by his appearance on the cover of South America’s Rocking Talent magazine.
A brief video showcasing his DJ set in Venice attracted over 2 million views on Instagram. At nine, he made a significant impact in Ibiza with a live DJ set on Ibiza Global Radio, which garnered an additional 1 million views on Instagram. That summer, he also performed at the prestigious Chezz Gerdi beach club in Formentera.
At the age of ten, Dario headlined a major beach club event attended by 10,000 people, followed by a remarkable open-air festival performance in his hometown of Padua, where he energized a crowd of 80,000 in Prato della Valle, Europe’s largest square. The subsequent year saw him grace clubs in Rome, Geneva, and Monte Carlo, delivering a memorable performance at Extra Extra, a legendary venue where his parents first met.
In 2024, Dario Di Bona showcased his talents at the third Ibiza Global Festival, receiving an enthusiastic response from the audience. His performance video later gained further acclaim when it was shared and supported by David Guetta.
Now, at 13, Dario is set to make a significant impact with his debut single “Jaded.” With an already impressive career and a rapidly expanding global fanbase—boasting over 70 million views on Instagram and 10 million on Facebook—his upcoming track is poised to establish him as one of the youngest rising stars in electronic music.
Mark your calendars for the official release on March 21st, and stay updated on Dario Di Bona’s journey as he continues to make waves in the electronic dance music scene.
