19:26 on Identity, New York, and What Comes Next

 is an Italian electronic music project known for blending ambient, neoclassical, and melodic techno elements into tightly constructed, emotionally charged club tracks. Founded in Milan in 2019 by Naples-born producer Raffaele Sorrentini, 19:26 quickly established itself with a sound that prioritizes atmosphere and intensity without sacrificing structure or rhythm.

The name “19:26” references both the year Napoli’s football club was founded and one of the first venues Sorrentini played as a DJ. Since his debut, he has released music on respected imprints such as Afterlife, Siamese, Zamna, Atlant, Oddity, Just This, and Fayer, with tracks like “Reserva,” “Mental Obsession,” “XX,” and “Existence” earning support from Tale Of Us, Tiësto, Camelphat, Fideles, and others.

Live, 19:26 has performed at global venues including Space Miami, Hï Ibiza, Ushuaïa, Ziggo Dome, and a milestone show at the Pyramids of Giza. His catalog includes solo work as well as collaborations with artists like Mrak, Yubik, and Animal Picnic. In interviews, he has cited artists such as Traumprinz and Liberato as influential, with his process driven more by instinct and emotion than by any strict genre formula.

Despite the setbacks of the pandemic-era launch and a massive data loss in 2022—where over 150 unreleased projects were lost—Sorrentini has remained prolific, with more than 20 releases spanning EPs, singles, remixes, and VA contributions. His tracks “XX” on Siamese and “Disobedience” on Zamna are among his most requested by fans during performances.

Dividing time between Europe and Beirut, where he maintains a production studio, Sorrentini continues to explore the edges of emotional club music while remaining grounded in a forward-facing, contemporary sound that resonates with dancefloors and listeners alike.
