In the electronic music industry, while DJs are notorious for adopting a lifestyle of partying and monumental world tours, how many DJs would you say are known for their extensive depth and style beyond their stage careers? For Miami-based DJ Pietro Pizzorni, to confine him to the music he makes would be a mistake. As a true jack-of-all-trades, Pietro’s endeavors venture far past the music industry.

Despite his 12 years of experience as a DJ and music producer, these days, the Miami native is also widely known for his aesthetic. Much like that of a true gentleman, everything about Pietro’s image and brand radiates style and class. After adopting this classic James Bond-like style, the DJ turned gentleman established a relationship with Miami retailer Stitched in Brickell City Centre.

“Stitched is the one that started it all,” Pietro says. “People were constantly asking me where I got my suits.”

Now as an ambassador for the brand with the help of his good friend and Stitched’s managing director Tony Merenda, much of Pietro’s wardrobe for photo shoots and modeling gigs consist of gorgeous custom Stitched suits. Thanks to his partnership with the brand, he has been able to fully explore the gentleman’s style, experimenting with double breasted suits, tropical colors, velvet jackets, three, four and five piece suits, waistcoats, sport coats, even denim, and of course tuxedos for DJing shows.

Whether he’s DJing, modeling, or working as the owner of “Pietro’s Bar” on Univision’s primetime dating reality TV show called Enamorándonos, or working as a newly appointed tattoo artist, Pietro’s style remains consistent with the gentleman aesthetic.

But even with the additional ventures, Pietro’s passion for music remains a constant in his life. As he’s spent over a decade developing his music and sound, reinventing the genre all with the aesthetic of a gentleman, he evolves his sound with patterns of electronic music, house and underground. In Miami, Pietro is well known as a resident DJ at three major nightclubs, Wall, Floyd and Treehouse.

At the moment, Pietro is celebrating the release of his single “Axiom” that debuted this month with Go Deeva records. Up next, he looks forward to releasing five more new tracks over the course of 2020. The next single, due out May 29th on Sirup Records is called Elevate and features Adler XCVI. Pietro also anticipates a busy summer as he’s performing first at Tomorrowland, the world’s largest and reputable music festival based in Belgium. Later in the year, as part of the Ultra Music Festival, he will tour with the group’s Resistance tour in October throughout their South American tour. With the Resistance tour, he will take on major cities throughout South America with his tour manager Juan Carlos Dominguez, owner of “Feel the Club,” Pietro’s South American DJ agency. Visiting cities in Europe, Argentina, Chile, Colombia and more, Pietro will perform in uniform— a flawless three-piece suit as part of his gentleman aesthetic.

“Everywhere I perform or work, whether I’m on a show, DJing or tattooing, I wear suits and tuxedos,” Pietro says. “Sometimes they’re more modern styled with my sleeves rolled up and tattoos revealed, but a suit regardless.”

MiG Arogan: The Haitian Powerhouse Behind the Spiritual Anthem “Moon Under Me”

MiG Arogan has firmly established himself as a commanding force in the music industry, bringing the weight and depth of Haitian culture and spirituality into the spotlight with his powerful track “Moon Under Me.” This song is not simply a musical creation; it is a bold spiritual declaration and a vivid expression of ancestral strength rooted in Haitian Vodou tradition.

Hailing from Haiti, MiG Arogan combines contemporary rap energy with rich cultural symbolism, carving a unique space where music meets ritual. “Moon Under Me” stands as a testament to this fusion, drawing deeply from the Vodou pantheon of Lwa (spirits) to convey protection, power, and fearlessness.

The song’s hook centers around the presence of Mama performing the sacred work “with the moon under me,” a metaphor for hidden spiritual forces guiding and empowering the artist. Papa Legba, the revered gatekeeper of the spiritual crossroads, “opens doors I don’t see,” symbolizing MiG’s access to realms and protections invisible to others. This connection to Legba asserts a profound control over paths both physical and metaphysical.

Further spiritual guardians emerge in the lyrics: Kalfou, the fierce spirit of crossroads and chaos, “waiting at the edge with heat,” ready to defend or attack; Baron Samedi and Baron Kriminel, powerful death spirits who “laugh when your blood hit street,” representing MiG’s untouchable status backed by forces of life and death. These spirits signal that crossing MiG Arogan or disrespecting his heritage comes with grave consequences.

The song also invokes Erzuli, embodying love, beauty, and pride, along with Simbi, the wise serpent spirit guiding MiG’s style and movement. Ogou, the warrior spirit, tests and arms him, while Damballa offers calm wisdom and balance. The mention of Granne Brigitte, the fierce protector, and the other spirits completes a powerful spiritual armor surrounding the artist.

“Moon Under Me” goes beyond conventional music; MiG Arogan describes himself as “no rapper, I’m a ritual in boots,” emphasizing the song’s ceremonial and mystical weight. The imagery of candles, chants, incense, and spirits evokes authentic Vodou ceremonies that infuse the track with genuine ancestral energy.

By weaving these sacred names and symbols into his lyrics, MiG Arogan not only asserts his own power but elevates Haitian Vodou from misunderstood superstition to a living, respected tradition. His message is clear: “Play with Haitians — that’s the wrong belief.” It’s a warning and a proclamation — the strength of his roots and spiritual backing make him untouchable, commanding respect from all who hear his voice.

With “Moon Under Me,” MiG Arogan asserts a profound cultural and spiritual identity. His music becomes a vessel for ancestral power, a declaration that the Haitian spirit is fierce, unbreakable, and very much alive in him. This song stands as an anthem for strength, heritage, and the unstoppable force that MiG Arogan represents in today’s music and culture landscape.
