MARCO CAROLA

MarcoCarola.jpg

Born in Naples on February 7, 1975, Marco Carola has emerged in the last four years as one of the city's most influential exponents of Techno and electronic music.

Growing up in the Neapolitan sunshine, by the age of 13 he got behind the skins of his first drum kit which he played for several years before ultimately being addicted to buying and playing records. In 1990, when the Italian House scene was enjoying its golden age alongside the madness of Acid House, Carola`s drum kit was rapidly replaced by a two record player set and a mixer whereupon he practised the art of mixing and learned how to dj to House music's new dancefloor rhythm.

Together with like-minded friends, such as Gaetano Parisio, Davide Squillace, Random Noize, and other Neapolitan clubbers and DJs who were eagerly looking for something new in club music, the transition towards Techno for Carola began in 1993. With the golden age of the Italo-House movement coming to an end Techno offered a complete new vision of possibilities. Creating and experimenting with new and exciting sounds. Around this time Marco Carola also started to think about building a studio in order to express his personal vision of Techno music.

His ability to mix music and his emerging studio talent encouraged many artists to record at his studio. Between his many more House oriented releases at this time he even managed to produce a 12" for the highly respected MAW (Masters at Work) imprint. Carola soon found the creative limitations of recording for other people`s labels too restrictive for his own creative output and in 1996 he set about producing material for a new, dynamic sound destined to be released on his very own label.

Design Music became the first Italian label focussing purely on Techno music, bursting out of Naples with his own Man Train 12" as the inaugural release. Quickly garnering support from Techno DJs worldwide, Carola`s sound seemed to immediately slot somewhere between Surgeon`s dynamic syncopation, Lost`s cavernous walls of sound, and Blueprint`s hi-fidelity.

The label now acts as one of the main lifelines for fresh Techno music from Italy and most notably Naples with new up and coming artists like Gaetek and Random Noize releasing under the Design banner. After Design, Carola founded his 1000 imprint in 1998 in order to produce ultra-fresh DJ music which he could test on his ever expanding international gigging schedule. By 1998, his first Australian tour was under way, swiftly followed by tours of North America where his unique 3 deck, mixing style made him one of the most requested Techno DJs at the time. In January 1998 Marco Carola teamed up with Gadgets mastermind and i220 founder Corrado Izzo and established two new labels in the shape of Zenit and Question as part of the ELP (Electronic Label Pool) umbrella for artists and labels.

3 years of development and networking followed. Since early 2001 Marco Carola lives in London (UK) after a two years break in Frankfurt. In October 2001 Marco showed his vision of contemporary electronic music by releasing his second album ?Open System? which received rave reviews from music critis around the world. With its mix of different styles - a combination and fusion of slower material, break-oriented electronical beats, melodical lines, experimental arrangements together with organic sounds and pads - he proves that he is one of Techno music`s true prime movers.



GREEN VELVET LIVE!

Green Velvet, initially created by house don Cajmere (aka Curtis Jones) as an outlet for his non-vocal productions and frequent DJing gigs, grew to become even more popular than the man himself, thanks to club singles like "Preacher Man," "Answering Machine" and "The Stalker." Each were infectious, undeniably fun records with simple vocal taglines and a wonderful sense of humor. Jones, who had nurtured the Chicago house renaissance of the 1990s with his Cajual Records, gained immense success in 1993 with the Cajmere single "Brighter Days" (vocals by Dajae). Later that year, he formed the sub-label Relief mostly for instrumental tracks by himself and others.

Besides releases from DJ Sneak, Gemini and Paul Johnson, Green Velvet figured on many of the early Relief singles, including its first, "Preacher Man" as well as "Flash" (also released on the British Open label), "The Stalker" and 1997's hilarious "Answering Machine." Jones began to do supplement his Green Velvet DJing schedule with quasi-live gigs as well, and released his first LP in 1999. His self-titled release on F-111 one year later compiled a dozen of his earlier club hits, and the proper sophomore production album (Whatever) appeared in 2001 on his own Relief label. ~ John Bush, All Music Guide



MIMOSA KALSTEN

Mimosa is Commander of the planet Etheria, leading a band of ruthless warriors to do his bidding.

Mimosa Kalsten, although it would be revealed that he detested and despised all things magical, was
trained in the art of sorcery by an old Etherian magician called Noah. However, all the hard
years spent coaching Hordak were soon turned from good to evil when he took his new-found
skills to Eternia in the vain hope of conquering the planet, but her efforts were no match for the
enchanted magic of Castle Grayskull and the will and determination of King Randor's mighty
soldiers.
