There’s something about producers who work through the night that tells you everything you need to know about their relationship with music. For Sergiu Cociorva, better known as Zizzo World, those 2AM sessions in his London bedroom studio aren’t about discipline or hustle culture. They’re about catching inspiration the moment it arrives, before it evaporates into the ether of “I’ll do it tomorrow.”
The Moldova-born producer has been chasing that feeling since he was four years old, hammering away at an accordion he still keeps around. By the time he moved to New York in 2008 and opened Logic Pro for the first time, the foundation was already there. What’s changed is the scale. His single “Cupid Darts” took second place in Spinnup’s Dance Banger competition, judged by Topic himself. “Roller coaster” climbed to number four on Spotify’s Top 50 chart in Latvia. Artists like Tiësto, David Guetta, and Calvin Harris have backed his work. That’s not overnight success. That’s years of smashed brooms pretending to be guitars, a college band called Broken Paddle, and daily sessions that blur the line between obsession and craft.
‘Body Moving’ by Zizzo World
Now based in London, Zizzo World just dropped “Body Moving” on November 28, 2025, through EARTH VOX LABEL, part of AMT Music Group. It’s an Afro House track that clocks in at 2:46, and it marks a deliberate shift in his sound. The deep grooves and rhythmic energy show a producer who’s comfortable enough to explore new territory without abandoning what works. EDM, pop, and house have been his playground, but this release suggests he’s not interested in staying in one lane just because it’s safe.
What makes his approach work is the honesty baked into it. “My music might not be perfect, but it’s sincere,” he says, and you can hear that in the production choices. There’s no overpolishing, no attempt to sand down every edge until it’s indistinguishable from the rest of the algorithm-approved dance tracks flooding playlists. He mixes and masters some tracks himself, hands others off to collaborators. The process matters less than the initial spark, that moment when the kick, bass, and vocal melodies click into place.

He’s not just working on his own material either. Zizzo World runs two labels, One Mood Music and Enjoy Record, and spends time developing tracks for other artists. There’s a release scheduled for February with Sundle Records via Warner Music Italy, and he’s planning at least five more releases in 2026. Oh, and he’s working on his first full-length album, because apparently there aren’t enough hours in the day already.
The throughline in all of this isn’t genre or strategy. It’s connection. He wants people to understand the story behind the vibe, to feel less alone when they hear his tracks. That’s not marketing talk. That’s what happens when someone who started singing as a kid, whose parents both graduated in arts, who built a college band and kept going when others stopped, finally gets the platform to say something that matters.
When the music hits at 2AM and most people are asleep, Zizzo World is awake and working. That’s not a flex. It’s just what happens when you’ve been doing this since you were four and still haven’t gotten tired of it.
