This coming May sees the return of Italy's Marco Passarani to Dublin. On his previous visits at Electric City, Passarani has always impressed with his dj sets, which are mostly influenced by the sounds of Detroit, Chicago and Rome. Marco is the main man behind the Final Frontier crew in Rome, which also includes previous Lunar Disko guests, Francisco and Raiders of the Lost Arp and is also the driving force behind highly regarded labels - Nature, Pigna, and Plasmek. Aswell, as this he has released numerous records on his own imprints and labels such as Clone, Peacefrog, Viewlexx, Skam, and Rephlex.

More info soon...

This Saturday, we welcome another member of the Roman Final Frontier crew down to the Kennedys basement. After guest appearances from his studio buddies, Francisco and Raiders of the Lost Arp, Marco Passarani will take over the Lunar Disko controls for the first time, with plenty more of that Pigna funk straight from the Rome suburbs.

Marco Passarani (a.k.a Passarani 2099, PSS2099 and Analog Fingerprints) is without doubt one of the most influential players in Italy's vast electronic music scene. He started his career as a teenager, recording for Alan Oldham's legendary Detroit Techno label Generator as early as 1993. After starting his own label Nature Records, Marco began releasing music by like-minded people such as D'Arcangelo and MAT-101 while his own music gradually developed a more experimental and musical edge - the highpoint of this period undoubtedly being his 2000 IDM album '6 Katun'.

Passarani then gradually returned to his roots, with his music incorporating more elements of Italo Disco and classic Detroit Techno and taking on a warmer, more analogue and - above all - more dancefloor friendly sound. Marco founded Pigna Records to present these new sounds, featuring his own productions alongside Francisco and Raiders of the Lost Arp.

More recent times has seen Passarani concentrating more on his Nature and Final Frontier labels. Releasing the music of new artists such as Rotterdam's Roberto Auser, German producers Snuff Crew, and fellow Italians Valerio Delphi and Alan1. Raiders of the Lost Arp's 'Beyond the Dark EP' also got the remix treatment from UR back in 2007 on the Nature label. Not forgetting, Marco's outstanding remixes over the years for artists such as Atomic Nation, Adult, Booka Shade, Francisco, and Legowelt. Although, the highlight of his production career is undoubtedly the playful and highly acclaimed album 'Sullen Look' on Peacefrog, which features hit tracks 'I house u' and 'CBS Master Theme'

Support this Saturday comes from Electric Shock's Dan Power and Lunar Disko regular and infinitestatemachine.com waffler Kenny Hanlon. Expect the two lads to be keeping it deep and jackin' with the sounds of Chicago and Detroit before Passarani takes over...


As always, a few guestlist passes up for grabs this month, simply email lunardiskodublin@gmail.com with 'Guestlist' in the subject line to be in with a chance. Winners will be emailed Friday afternoon.
