The Retro Sensation That Took Over the World!
Imagine two middle-aged Italian men, rocking 80s mustaches and short shorts, playing italo disco in your kitchen, living room, or on your terrace. No, this isn’t a movie scene — it’s the viral reality sweeping TikTok and social media worldwide!
Adriano Tirazi and Luka Ferando aren’t newbies; they’ve been making music for over 30 years. But only now have they exploded onto the global stage. Their music and style are like a time machine straight back to the early 80s, and their story is pure drama.
How It All Began
Adriano was a tour guide on the Amalfi Coast, and Luka was a mechanic fixing scooters. Their meeting was pure chance — a broken exhaust and half a pack of cigarettes brought them together. They instantly clicked and spent nights crafting synth riffs inspired by hits like A-ha’s “Take On Me.”
They called themselves Fratelli Laser and booked their debut gig in a church in Salerno. But things went sideways — their equipment caught fire mid-performance, seriously damaging a 14th-century polyptych! They were immediately banned from live shows across the region.
The Fall and Rise
After that, things spiraled. Luka became addicted to amphetamines, sold his shoes to buy a broken drum machine, and Adriano disappeared for a year. But they never gave up on music. They started making lo-fi videos as D Enterprises, with their synthesizers, tracksuits, shorts, and the ever-present Campari in hand.
Then, boom! An old video blew up on TikTok and YouTube. The world saw them, loved them, and they became a viral sensation. Today, they have a legion of fans and remain true to themselves — drinking only Campari, recording exclusively on cassettes, and refusing to fly economy class.
Why Are They So Popular?
Their music is nostalgic, catchy, and authentic. In a world of digital perfection, they’re a breath of fresh air — two guys who don’t care about trends but make music from the heart, with a style that’s both hilarious and cool.
The Bottom Line
If you thought TikTok sensations were just teens doing dance challenges, think again. These two Italian retro DJs prove that real music and authenticity always find their way to people’s hearts. And if you don’t like it, maybe you’re just jealous of their style and charm.
