- T KODE is an Italian artist based in Berlin.“Music is the voice we have chosen to represent the feeling that we live, we have inside, or better yet, what we are or want to be.” Gabriele Salerno, known under his alias T Kode, is an Italian artist currently based in Berlin. Gabriele grew up in Rome and approached to music at a young age through the study of the piano, which to this day reflects in his productions proving a natural feeling for rhythm, playful sounds and delicate details. His passion for techno and the rave scene already derived in his teenage years spending countless hours on the dancefloors of techno events in Italy and festivals all around Europe. Eventually Gabriele’s professional journey within music began in Rome when he started studying technical sound and analogical synthesis under the guidance of Enrico Cosimi, ultimately resulting in the techno prospective we now know as T Kode. Driven by his dedication to electronic music Gabriele moved to Berlin where he has been part of events at Tresor, Arena Club, Suicide Club, Wilde Renate, OHM and many others since. Representing an unconventional techno style, T Kode aims for complex yet powerful and energetic sounds in his productions and DJ sets. His style is characterized by intersected grooves and hypnotic beats, dark and light at the same time. The combination of Gabriele’s various music selection and his early experiences on the dancefloor as a ‘true raver’ himself has given him this special eye for the crowd promising quality sets you won’t forget. In 2016 Gabriele announced his independent record label Stratosphera Records and continues building a discography representing his musical vision and addiction to futuristic techno. Since 2019 T Kode obtains residency at the newly established art and music collective Friendship Collective, and has recently released on the highly respected Spanish techno label Subsist Records. Gabriele’s continuous passion and love for music will derive in many future releases and drive his alias as well as his label Stratosphera Records to a well-known and respected position in the techno panorama.
