Art Dealer (It)
Biografía
Antonio Guida is inspired by the house rhythm from the 90s. He grew up in the south of Italy listening to Frankie Knuckles and all the house music from that period which his father used to play around the house.
He started to go clubbing since he was fourteen years old. Since then, he understood that clubbing was different for him than everyone else. Slowly, he became passionate about the music and he felt that this environment was his home, the place where he could feel a different vibe.
Since a teenager, He was playing for a private party and a small event for fun. A way to make him together with this vibe that he was looking for.
In 2011, thanks to a good friend Alex Nilmar, he became part of the staff who made dance Vicenza for many years: OASI! Starting fresh as ‘Tuna’ Dj he became an icon among the local party. His style was characterized by Techno/Minimal and Deep Tech rhythm which made him have the opportunity to play in different parties.
Within a few years. He started to develop his brand image.
Together with a good friend, Gaz, he became part of a new project: WAVE Music For Happiness, where Tuna plays with Giuliano Veronese, AGENT, Macromism, Stefano Noferini, ALEX PICCINI, PAOLO TAMONI, Stefano Ritteri, Terence Fixmer.
In the last couple of years, he needed a change. He decided to bring its art everywhere. That is what music is all about: an art that makes people happy.
That is how Art Dealer was born. A new project, a new vibe, characterized by Techno/Dub/Electronic which made him sharing the console with SOMNE, PISETZKY, Hiver, Nico Lahs, and many more!
During this period, he started to work with other important event staff such as HUND, WAKE Music e ALTAVOZ!
At the end of 2015, he left the OASI project with the idea of focusing more on producing its own songs. He started to study music composition and pursued certificates in Ableton, Sound Design, Electronic Music Production, and music composition.
What really pushes Art Dealer to became a producer of its own music is his high attention to detail and passion to make new vibes. This passion brought him to experiment with different types of electronic music in order to find its own.
Meanwhile, he kept playing in Italy and abroad. He traveled to England where he played at BeAvantGarde. A great experience that makes him meet new people and see a different mindset.

At the end of 2017, he felt ready to start its event AvantGarde which is still ongoing!
Meanwhile, he became part of the project " Nice To Meet You" in Milano which led him to play at the AMNESIA Milano together with Monoloc, Mind Against, and other experience and talented DJs.
