The artist is struggling to cope without any work or income for a year.
Alfredo Fiorito, the Ibiza legend better known as DJ Alfredo, has recently set up a crowdfunding campaign in order to help pay for his living costs after being without any work or income for a year and recently suffering a stroke.
The Argentinian-born artist has been instrumental to the growth of the popularity of dance music on the island. Paul Oakenfold, Nicky Holloway, Danny Rampling, and Johnny Walker have all been inspired by his Balearic beat sets in Amnesia.
‘Dear friends, with a heavy heart I come to ask for your help. This last year has been a disaster for so many of us, I have had no work or income for almost a year and recently suffered a stroke which has affected my health, and like many in the music world, my situation is very bad. I can no longer pay my rent or support my family and so I humbly ask if you can help with your donations so I can keep going.
“At the same time I want to start a project in which I can give something back to all my supporters through my history in the world of music and nightlife : mixes, posters, music and all the work I’ve done for over 30 years, sharing that work with you, and so open a channel where everyone can participate. Thank you’, writes Alfredo on his crowdfunding page.
Alfredo is aiming to raise €25,000, and plans to pay supporters back with mixes, posters, and other exclusive music work.
