Purple Disco Machine

About

Purple Disco Machine, the moniker of German producer and DJ Tino Piontek, is a modern-day alchemist of groove, blending disco’s glittering nostalgia with the pulse of contemporary dance music. Emerging from Dresden’s underground scene, Piontek has become a global ambassador for the disco revival, crafting tracks that are as infectious as they are sophisticated. His sound is a kaleidoscope of influences—classic funk, soulful house, and Italo-disco—all filtered through a polished, modern lens. Piontek’s breakthrough came with the 2013 hit “My House,” a track that encapsulated his ability to resurrect disco’s golden era while making it feel fresh. Since then, he has consistently delivered dancefloor anthems like “Dished (Male Stripper)” and “Hypnotized,” the latter featuring Sophie and the Giants, which became a viral sensation. His collaborations with artists such as Kylie Minogue, Diplo, and Nile Rodgers underscore his versatility and respect within the industry. Beyond his music, Purple Disco Machine has redefined disco’s cultural relevance, proving that the genre’s joy and escapism are timeless. His live performances, characterized by vibrant visuals and high-energy mixes, have cemented his reputation as a must-see act. Recently, he released his sophomore album, *Exotica*, a lush exploration of global sounds and disco’s enduring allure. With a relentless touring schedule and a growing influence on the global dance scene, Purple Disco Machine is not just reviving disco—he’s reimagining it for a new generation.
