We’re excited to announce the latest edition in our Magnetic Mag Mix series. This time we’ve got Naples-native Louis Costa in the hot seat for over an hour of bouncy house tracks and bootlegs which are sure to keep the grooves rolling.
Louis Costa grew up in Southern Italy where he was introduced to music at the age of 10. His passion for creativity was ignited by the spark of his father’s Roland Keyboard, which he quickly learned to play himself, before his introduction to the realm of percussion by his Neapolitan drummer uncle. After discovering house music and immersing himself in the genre the “Partenopeo”/DJ took the plunge and moved to London in 2013 where he began to forge his future in the city’s underground dance scene. Fast-forward to current and he has conquered the crowds in the hottest clubs of London such as The EGG, FABRIC, BLOC and many more. As well as gigging at some of London’s most iconic venues Costa has shared the stage with the likes of Leon, Luca Cazal , Roberto Capuano, Lorenzo De Blanck , Richy Ahmed, Anthea, Neverdogs, Marco Faraone, Max Chapman, Dennis Ferrer, Raffa FL, Simone Liberali, Kenny Larkin, Joey Daniel and many more. Follow Louis Costa on Facebook and Instagram and tune in to his mix below.

ARTIST BIO:
Louis Costa was born in Naples, growing up in a family where art and music represented the core passions of the family home in South Italy. He entered the world of music at the age of 10 and quickly learnt how to play his father’s Roland keyboard. Louis was then introduced to the world of percussion by his uncle, a popular Neapolitan drummer.
The rhythm of house music took over Louis’ life – the music flowed through his veins – and the young “Partenopeo”/DJ began to realise that he had the talent to become a professional DJ. Louis started taking technical lessons and practiced in his uncle’s recording studio where he mixed his first tracks, ranging from House to Techno.
His love for music took the young man to London in 2013 where he commenced his path into the underground scene of British electronic music and straight away conquered the crowd in the hottest clubs of London such as The EGG, FABRIC,BLOC and many more.
In 2015, Louis made a huge step in his career when he joined the newly-formed WE ARE FAMILY movement becoming Resident DJ and official producer. He rapidly made a name for himself in Tech House and has gone on to perform in some of the best clubs in London and Europe. Along the way he has had the opportunity to share the decks with the likes of Leon, Luca Cazal , Roberto Capuano, Lorenzo De Blanck , Richy Ahmed, Anthea, Neverdogs, Marco Faraone, Max Chapman, Dennis Ferrer, Raffa FL, Simone Liberali, Kenny Larkin, Joey Daniel and many more.
The first official EP will be soon released.
Stay tuned
