Alfredo Dead: Influential Ibiza DJ Was 71


The dance music enthusiast played a significant part in Ibiza becoming a celebrated hub for dance music.

Influential DJ Alfredo, who played a huge part in Ibiza becoming a world-renowned hub of dance music culture, has died aged 71. Born Alfredo Florito in Argentina, the dance music enthusiast moved to Europe in 1976, finally settling in Ibiza, where he learnt to DJ in a bar. He went on to host a longtime residency at the club Amnesia where he championed what The Guardian described as “heady, sensual music across the genre spectrum, from high-gloss soft rock to pop, reggae, disco, funk, electro and early house: a euphoric blend that came to define the bohemian spirit of the Balearic island.”
