Aside from releasing exceptional EPs on acclaimed labels like Perlon, Peacefrog, Poker Flat, M_nus, and Cocoon, Luciano also founded Cadenza Records. The label has become synonymous with pushing the limits of the dance scene, boasting a distinct style and image, and a devoted group of artists following in Luciano’s charismatic footsteps.

In 2009, Luciano unveiled his futuristic multimedia show, Aether Live, receiving overwhelming praise. He went on to revitalize Ibiza’s underground nightlife by hosting a free event at the Ushuaïa beach bar, which quickly became the talk of the summer. This success led to his Sunday residency at Pacha and the birth of the Vagabundos concept in 2010, making him and his talented group of beatmakers the hottest sensation on the White Island.

The summers of 2012 and 2013 saw the Luciano & Friends festivals held at the new Ushuaïa Hotel, while the 2014 season rocked with the Origins party at Amnesia. In the same year, Luciano introduced his new label Basaec, showcasing his early productions as Luciæn from his late teens.

With an ever-busy touring schedule, Luciano made a triumphant return with the Vagabundos party at Space Ibiza in the summer of 2015, hosting 17 weeks of unforgettable Sundays and becoming one of the season’s most talked-about events. Meanwhile, the Luciano & Friends parties found a new home at the picturesque location of Destino on Thursdays.

In addition to his musical endeavors, Luciano, together with his wife Francisca and sister Amélie, founded the charity One Coin For Life. Through donations from the electronic music industry, the initiative aims to raise awareness and funds to support communities worldwide. Their first project involved building schools for children from the Arhuaco and Kogi tribes in Colombia, with upcoming plans focusing on financing the Vipingo Village in Kenya.
