Mariano Mellino (Argentina) – Fifa World Cup in Kansas City

Widely recognized as one of the leading names in the global Progressive House scene, Mariano Mellino has spent over two decades building a reputation for emotionally driven sets that blend Progressive House, Melodic Techno, and deep hypnotic grooves. Inspired by legendary artists like Hernán Cattáneo, Sasha, John Digweed, and Nick Warren, Mellino has become known for creating immersive musical journeys that keep dance floors locked in from start to finish.
His performances have taken him across Germany, Spain, Japan, Israel, Mexico, Greece, Brazil, the United States, and some of the world’s most respected underground venues and festivals. Throughout his career, he has shared the stage with global electronic icons including Tale Of Us, Solomun, Eric Prydz, Artbat, Lee Burridge, Guy Gerber, and Hernán Cattáneo himself.
Mariano is also the creator of AUDIOHOLICS, an internationally recognized event series that has sold out iconic venues across Argentina and helped establish him as one of the defining artists of the new generation of South American electronic music. His productions have climbed international charts and earned support from some of the biggest names in underground dance music worldwide.
On July 10th, WORLDCUP SERIES transforms Laila Lounge into a late-night underground experience curated for true music lovers - featuring immersive sound, melodic energy, elevated production, and the kind of atmosphere normally found in Ibiza, Buenos Aires, Berlin, and Tulum.
