Nacido en 1975 en <strong>N\u00e1poles<\/strong>, Italia, creci\u00f3 rodeado de vinilo: siendo adolescente ya pasaba horas escuchando los discos de su padre, con <strong>Stevie Wonder<\/strong> y <strong>Barry White<\/strong> como primeras referencias, y el soul, el R&#038;B y la disco como lenguajes que marcar\u00edan para siempre su sensibilidad musical. Con casi treinta a\u00f1os de carrera activa, Peppe es hoy una figura de referencia en el circuito internacional del house con ra\u00edces africanas y latinas.<\/p>\n<h2>Los a\u00f1os de formaci\u00f3n: del soul al house<\/h2>\n<p>En los a\u00f1os noventa, Peppe Citarella ampli\u00f3 su paleta musical explorando el jazz, el garage, el old school y las primeras oleadas del house que llegaban desde Chicago y Nueva York. Esa educaci\u00f3n cl\u00e1sica, construida disco a disco, le dio la base para desarrollar un sonido propio capaz de conectar generaciones y culturas. Sus sets de aquella \u00e9poca ya mezclaban la profundidad emocional del soul con la energ\u00eda percusiva de los ritmos africanos, una combinaci\u00f3n que con el tiempo se convertir\u00eda en su sello de identidad. La m\u00fasica negra americana, los tambores africanos y los ritmos latinos eran, para \u00e9l, parte del mismo lenguaje universal.<\/p>\n<h2>Union Records y la apuesta por el Afro Latin House<\/h2>\n<p>En 2017, Peppe Citarella fund\u00f3 <strong>Union Records<\/strong>, su propio sello discogr\u00e1fico especializado en afro house y m\u00fasica afro con contaminaci\u00f3n latina, consolidando as\u00ed su posicionamiento como artista y como curator de un estilo. El sello ha publicado trabajos propios y de otros artistas afines, convirti\u00e9ndose en un punto de encuentro para la escena afro house europea. En 2012 ya hab\u00eda demostrado su olfato para las fusiones con <strong>\u201cMamaAfrica\u201d<\/strong>, producida junto a India y Paky Palmieri, una pieza que mezclaba ritmos tribales y soul con gran \u00e9xito. Sus compilaciones <strong>Essential AfroLatinHouse 2022, 2023 y 2024<\/strong> son hoy documentos indispensables para entender hacia d\u00f3nde va este g\u00e9nero.<\/p>\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/radioibizing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/peppe-citarella.webp\" alt=\"Peppe Citarella - DJ y productor italiano de afro house y latin house\"><\/figure>\n<h2>En directo: Groove Odyssey Ibiza y el circuito internacional<\/h2>\n<p>En el escenario, Peppe Citarella es un animal de pista. Sus sets son viajes sonoros que comienzan con cadencias rituales y van construyendo capas de groove hasta alcanzar momentos de pura celebraci\u00f3n colectiva. Ha actuado en clubes y festivales de toda Europa, con presencia destacada en Ibiza, donde su actuaci\u00f3n en el festival <strong>Groove Odyssey Ibiza<\/strong> confirm\u00f3 que su propuesta conecta a la perfecci\u00f3n con el esp\u00edritu de la isla. Tambi\u00e9n ha llevado su sonido a Australia, con fechas en S\u00eddney, y a escenarios internacionales donde el afro house tiene cada vez m\u00e1s presencia. Su primer gran \u00e9xito, <strong>\u201cTacalacateo\u201d<\/strong>, apareci\u00f3 en los rankings internacionales de danza y en el <strong>Billboard dance\/club chart<\/strong>, abriendo puertas que desde entonces nunca se han vuelto a cerrar.<\/p>\n<h2>Por qu\u00e9 Peppe Citarella es imprescindible<\/h2>\n<p>En una escena donde el afro house ha pasado de nicho a fen\u00f3meno global, Peppe Citarella es uno de los pocos que lleva d\u00e9cadas cultivando este sonido antes de que se pusiera de moda. Su propuesta no es una tendencia: es una identidad construida desde la honestidad y el conocimiento profundo de la m\u00fasica. Con Union Records como plataforma y una agenda internacional que sigue creciendo, el DJ napolitano demuestra que la trayectoria y la autenticidad son el mejor pasaporte en este negocio. En <strong>Radio Ibizing<\/strong> celebramos a artistas que construyen legado, y Peppe Citarella es exactamente eso.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":2308,"menu_order":0,"template":"","artistgenre":[50,20,22],"class_list":["post-2174","artist","type-artist","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","artistgenre-afro-house","artistgenre-deep","artistgenre-house"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v24.4 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Peppe Citarella | DJ Italiano de Afro House y Latin House<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Peppe Citarella, DJ napolitano con 30 a\u00f1os de carrera, fundador de Union Records y referente del afro house.
