Livorno, 7 January 2020 – He is dead Riccardo Cioni, 66 years old, from Livorno, historical Tuscan deejay. He had covid and was therefore hospitalized in Livorno in December. Then it was out, it looked like the worst was behind it and in a post on Facebook he thanked the doctors and volunteers who cared for him.
Then there would be a new deterioration and death. It was the partner who announced the end of Riccardo Cioni. A face, that of the Tuscan deejay, very well known. It marked an era, that of historic discos, some of which no longer exist today.
It didn’t just set the mood, it wasn’t just fun. He had also produced singles. One of these, “In America”, was featured in a historical broadcast like Discoring in the 1980s. Today’s 50-60 year olds have grown up with and the evenings of Cioni.
That he had continued to work and that until recently was still the protagonist of evenings. Strong also and above all the affection of the fans, on the wave of nostalgia for mythical years of the world of discos. He had an audience that followed him not only in the clubs but also in the many street parties. Those summer and those that took place on New Year’s Eve.
It wasn’t just a point of reference for the people of the night. It was for many deejays who had taken it as a model. His is a real school. And there are many disc jockeys who mourn him on social media.
But Riccardo Cioni was not only synonymous with disco: he was also a great voice on the radio. Radio Mitology is one of the frequencies that has seen the deejay protagonist in recent years. He had a daily appointment in which he proposed his mixes. “We are incredulous – we read on the Facebook page of Radio Mitology – we can’t believe it, today a friend left us, and one of us, who made history Have a good trip Riccardo, make the angels dance as only you know how to Dj Full Time“.
