Biography & Career:
Fideles is an Italian electronic music duo formed in 2010 by Daniele Aprile and Mario Roberti — two musicians whose nationality is proudly Italian, hailing from Taranto in southern Italy, where they first met in 2005 at one of Daniele's DJ sets at a local club. Both had grown up learning piano, with early classical influences ranging from Beethoven and Chopin to the trip-hop sounds of Massive Attack and Tracey Thorn. The Fideles dj real name story begins with a holiday in the French Pyrenees, where the pair spotted a shop sign reading "Les Fidèles" — a word that perfectly captured their devotion and fidelity to music.

The Fideles genre sits at the intersection of melodic techno, deep house, and afro house, characterized by hypnotic percussion, mesmerizing layers, and euphoric swells that work equally well in intimate clubs and massive festival settings. Since transitioning to live performance in 2015, the dj Fideles project has evolved into one of the most respected acts in the global electronic scene. Releases on Afterlife, Innervisions, Correspondant, and their own imprint Impressum Recordings — founded in 2019 — have earned the support of Laurent Garnier, Solomun, Pete Tong, and David Guetta. The track "The Border" featured in Pete Tong's Favourites of 2017, while "Resonant" appeared on Tale Of Us' iconic fabric97 compilation.

Notable Fideles songs including remixes of WhoMadeWho's "Heartless," CamelPhat's "In Your Eyes," and Röyksopp's "Stay A While" have expanded the audience significantly. With over 1.2 million monthly Spotify listeners, Tour dates have taken the duo to Tomorrowland, Hi Ibiza, Pacha, Amnesia, Sziget Festival, and Amsterdam Dance Event. The Mario Roberti musician and Daniele Aprile continue to push their sound forward, with Fideles nationality proudly Italian at the heart of everything they create.
