At age 19 he pursued a solo career, becoming one of the most prominent icons in the Brazilian electronic scene, with honors and awards, such as "Best DJ in Brazil" awarded by House Mag for two consecutive times (in the years 20) and the only Brazilian in the top 25 world DJ ranking by DJ Magazine in 2016. He began his career at the age of 12 along with his fraternal twin brother Bhaskar Petrillo. His name came after his parents travelled to India, where they met with spiritual guru Osho, who indicated that the boy should be called Alok, which in the Sanskrit language means "light". Alok's parents are of Italian, Lebanese, and Portuguese origin. Petrillo was born in Goiânia, Brazil, the son of DJs' Swarup and Ekanta, who are also pioneers of psytrance in the country and creators of the Universo Paralello, electronic music festival in Bahia.
