Luca Marano
Biografía
Luca has been galvanised by the house music scene since the early 90's as well as a DJ since that time. His name has circulated around the island house scene for over 10 years so Luca belongs to the artists’ generation who gives the best contribution to the italian club culture in the early 90 and makes Catania, his hometown, the major centre in Sicily.
Turning his hand to a variety of styles while still maintaining a strong signature sound, Luca has created an admired musical identity and a loyal global following.
House, techno, funk and deep define his background, which then pours into his sets, which cannot be labeled in any one style of music, demonstrating that Luca is a versatile and ecletic artist, those who have a different story to tell, from time to time.
He’s a very talented artist, able to rig in any situation.
His performances are really great shows, that always manage to surprise his audience. People often come under the console imploring him to play another tune. Nobody wants to go back home when he plays.
Between 2007 and 2009 Luca edited a radio program, Electronic Pleasure, in the famous 'Succo d'House' on Radio SIS. He is writing for DJ Mag Italy also.
But his first love is playing records.
Since 1999 he is a resident of AFC (Atmosphere). AFC has hosted the best international djs for years, at whose side Luca has regularly played and exchanged ideas and music. At one of these parties he met Larsen. A perfect union, born almost as a game in 2004, after a b2b improvised at the Taitù, cult and underground club of the Sicilian house scene in those years. The unexpected feeling lead them to go steady, both in djing then in the producing music. Together with his half, Luca realesed in 2007 "A18/Deviazioni" for the Ocean Dark, a debut that brought a breath of fresh air to the music scene that year.
Paolo Martini immediately recognized his talent, so decided to recruit him in the Ocean Dark, for which they produced "The Dark Side Of The Rhum" in 2008 and "Dirty thingz" in 2009. Luca gained the European scene and world record with several releases and remixes for Off, Tenax Recordings, Paul’s Boutique, Zoo:Technique , Niveous supported by djs like Richie Hawtin, Carl Cox, Pete Tong, Josh Wink, Dj Sneak, Reboot, Karotte, Joris Voorn, Jamie Jones, Tania Vulcano, Federico Molinari, Markus Fix, Robert Dietz, Lauhaus, Technasia and many more.
Luca stands out among the artists of national and international house scene, with dj sets @ Weekend (Berlino), Zoo Project (Ibiza), Echoes (Riccione), Tenax (Firenze), Magazzini Generali (Milano), Kudos (Mamaia-RO), Culture Box (Copenaghen), Flex (Vienna), The End, The Egg e Aquarium (Londra), Spazio 900 (Roma), Alter Ego (Verona).
Since 2010, with Paolo Martini, he’s also one of the minds of Paul's Boutique, in the role of A&R and label manager, as well as a producer. His remix of "It's You",and tracks like "Oh Set Me Free", "I'll House U" and "Mediterraneano" are among the most supported and sold tracks of the entire Paul's Boutique’ catalog.
