Get Ready to Dance: Sasha Carassi Drops His Electrifying EP ‘Memoria’
Buckle up because the electronic music titan himself, Sasha Carassi, is back with a bang! His latest masterpiece, the Memoria EP, is set to take over your playlists. Released under the legendary Adam Beyer’s labels, Truesoul and Drumcode Records, this EP is everything you’ve been waiting for—and more!
Let’s take a quick journey through Sasha Carassi’s stellar career. Starting as a young DJ in the bustling streets of Napoli, Italy, Sasha quickly made a name for himself. Fast forward a few years, and he’s now a global phenomenon, known for his electrifying sets and genre-blending productions. Whether it’s House, Breakbeat, Techno, or Deep House, Sasha’s got it covered!
In 2009, he launched the iconic Phobiq label, which soon became a techno-lover’s dream. Recently, he introduced us to ILINX, his latest venture that showcases his ever-evolving musical genius. Last year, Sasha wowed audiences at festivals and clubs from Mexico’s Zamna Festival to Ibiza’s Amnesia, leaving a trail of mesmerized fans in his wake.
Now, let’s talk about the star of the show—the Memoria EP. This two-track gem is Sasha Carassi at his finest.
- ‘Memoria’: This track is a raver’s dream come true. Imagine a melody that hooks you from the first beat, layered with captivating rhythms and a spellbinding beat. It’s dramatic, it’s futuristic, and it’s everything you need to get lost on the dance floor.
- ‘WRHS’: Here’s where Sasha takes things up a notch. With iconic drum synths, heavy distorted vocals, and a beat that commands you to move, ‘WRHS’ is a powerhouse. It’s intense, it’s immersive, and it’s going to be your new favorite track.
Sasha reflects on his journey with Adam Beyer’s labels, saying, “I share an association with Adam Beyer that goes back to 2010, when I debuted on Drumcode Records with my Hypercombo EP. I also contributed to the collaborative EP The Napoli Connection on DC a year later, and contributed the track ‘The Hard Parade’ to A-Sides Vol.3 via Drumcode in 2015 which was a huge highlight for me. My return to Beyer’s labels marks a full circle moment for me, as I’ve always had a foot in both Techno and House.“
Stay tuned, stay excited, and most importantly, keep dancing! 🎶💃🕺

Aaron makes music about meaningful topics that rocks and grooves – and sometimes it even skanks on a rock steady beat!
His new song ‘Geeks’ has been released on all major music platforms on November 15th. It is an anthem for the heroes of the digital age: computer nerds, also known as geeks. It is driven by an off-beat ska guitar, a sticky bass line and a groovy brass section. The icing on the cake is a jazzy saxophone solo.
“I have always loved Ska, I even saw the Specials, the Selecter and Madness live in their heydays”, says Aaron. “I chose the topic although I am not a geek myself, but I have a lot of sympathy for them. Geeks are often frowned upon because they can be socially awkward, but they are the ones who are building a better world. So I think they deserve an anthem.”
The music video is mostly made up of typography, minimalistic ASCII graphics and heavily pixelated images – it surely looks geeky! Watch it here:
Aaron writes catchy songs that are made for people who like meaningful, uplifting topics and guitar-driven, hand-made sounds. His musical journey started young but it wasn’t until he discovered Bitcoin and became so invested in it that he used music to express his new found joy.
“It’s mostly rock music, with excursions into funk, soul and other styles I grew up with. In general, it’s guitar-driven and hand-made, often with a punkish energy and beatlesque harmonies. What all my songs have in common are meaningful lyrics about being in the here and now, about transforming disturbing emotions into wisdom, about being in the flow, things like that.” says Aaron in an interview.
“I have always been making music and writing songs, starting with a punk rock band when I was 15. However, I never saw it as a career. I played in several bands in my teenage years and my early twenties, but after my media studies in Berlin and Rio de Janeiro I focused on other things. I first worked in TV production and then founded one of the first Internet agencies in Germany. I discovered Bitcoin in 2011 and became fascinated by it. I wrote five books about it, made lots of promotional videos and educational series for Bitcoin and blockchain companies, and organised events. I even wrote some songs about Bitcoin, which became quite popular in the community, like my Reggaeton about the Bitcoin Beach in El Salvador. People always liked that my songs are catchy and provocative. It was by the end of 2023 that I decided to go full in on music. It’s what I enjoy the most, so now I want to fully follow my passion.”
Since May 2024, his songs have been streamed more than 250,000 times on Spotify and his music videos have been viewed more than 350,000 times on YouTube.
