Cellini arrives on CORE Records with ‘Body From Mind’
Opening up a new chapter with a full-length album coming in 2025
Friday, April 12, 2024 - Belgian-based artist with Southern Italian roots Cellini arrives on CORE Records with his brand-new single ‘Body From Mind’. Opening up a new chapter with a full-length album coming in 2025, ‘Body From Mind’ arises from a deeply rooted curiosity about the lives and stories that could have run parallel to Cellini’s. It reflects on the choices of his grandparents, which separated him from the roots that have been anchored in Southern Italy for generations. This experience brings constant uncertainty and doubt about what home really means.
‘Body From Mind’ ft. AMOS is out now via all platforms.
Cellini creates percussion-driven and dancefloor-ready electronic music inspired by traditional influences from the Mediterranean landscape. Celebrating diversity and cultural exchange, fusing European dancefloor-ready genres and a range of musical traditions.
Cellini: “In this in-between position, my music takes shape and thrives precisely there. Melancholy is amplified and anchored in the melodies and lyrics. On one hand, I feel a deep, spiritual connection with the mountains where my ancestors have lived for generations. On the other hand, there is the place where my new life has formed through the immigration of our family. It's an acknowledgment of the complexity of my identity and a celebration of the unique experience of balancing between different cultures and traditions.”
