The organic house music journey that started with the previous remarkable mix Dopo’ore is even further realised with this autumnal release, Sunstar. This mix takes emotion in some surprisingly positive directions, with lush layers and rhythms that paint an optimistic soundscape. Remark’s Sunstar explores the blurred hopeful boundaries of sunset to starlight to sunrise.
Five hours of meticulously curated tracks form a unified aural experience that can be enjoyed anytime of day. Pulsing bass lines, whispering high-hats, shades of colourful sound, and the joy of the occasional uplifting vocal mixed with the depth of a sexy instrumental — the Sunstar vibe certainly suits all flavours of the melodic house music spectrum.

Remark Dopo’ore was inspired by those magical after-hours moments. The golden glow of sunsets, the promising horizon of sunrises, the buzz of flowing cocktails after the long workday concludes, or the warmth you feel in the comfort of connected friends at an afterparty.
The mix hints at creative elements from 2022’s Annoconfinomento II, yet with less progressive flare. Dopo’ore brings together a collection of organic house tracks that mesh medleys and voluptuous vibes that flow over you and through you, feeding your aural desires.
A perfect accompaniment to any chilled moment, Remark Dopo’ore provides a soundtrack to all of your magic hours — no matter what time of day or where they occur.

In January 2021 I livestreamed a moody, minimal mix called “The Comedown”, and ever since I’ve been inspired to eventually make a full uninhibited soundscape that explored that deep, atmospheric sound fully. “Crossover” was borne out of this desire. Based upon another livestream from early 2023, “Crossover” reworks and remasters that original vision by layering even more tracks and sonic sensations. The opening preamble, spoken by my music goddess Tori Amos, acknowledges how we are so fortunate to be part of the universe’s infinite creativity. These words set the stage for the 3+ hour journey that wanders through atmospheres and slowly saunters through depth, tech, and dub. So put the headphones on, dive deep, and lose yourself in the boundless and endless creativity of the universe.

SURPRISE! 🏳️🌈 The Remarkable mix of the summer has arrived and it propels pride and unity to the forefront. This celebration of vocal house is filled with tracks that uplift, connect, and inspire joy — with that unmistakable euphoria of forever being on the dance floor. Curated for peak club hours, this mix is guaranteed to entertain the biggest of parties. There are new interpretations of tracks from the 70’s and 80’s intermingled with some of this year’s biggest pride anthems. The acronymic title ROYGBIV represents the rainbow (red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet) which glorifies the feeling of pride as LGBTQ+ communities continue to be repressed and attacked globally. So turn up this latest Remark mix to inject positivity and hope into this judgmental and divisive world.

There are so many signals vying for our attention during these tumultuous times. The relentless noise signals coming from all of the digital signals. The media divides with virtue signals whilst others call out distress signals. And everything points to alarming signals. Through the darkness and storms, I turn to my constant: getting lost in audio signals. It is within these armored musical frequencies that I find my foundation, my anchor. So soar through this carefully crafted, meticulously curated, 4+ hour progressive journey with me into sonic salvation.

Over a year in the making. Remark presents Annoconfinamento II. The highly anticipated sequel to part one released in the spring of 2021. Originally inspired by surviving the isolation in endless lockdowns, this mix continues the theme of combatting ideological confinement through creativity in a chaotic, foreboding world: a journey of deep, melodic, intelligent house that fuses worldly influences, cultural chants, and progressive tech into a seamless organic union. If you listen to the end, which of course I suggest you do, you’ll fully understand my sonic intentions which is best represented in the classic dialogue between Frodo and Gandalf. Frodo says, “I wish it need not have happened in my time.” Gandalf responds, “And so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us.”

As another surreal and tumultuous year comes to a close, it’s as important as ever that we put positive energy into the universe. I’ve always done this through music which continues to be my guiding light through these crazy times. On New Year’s Eve 2021, I rang in the new year again behind the decks — broadcasting a 5-hour livestream on Twitch and Mixcloud. The uplifting performance was titled Discotonic, and as a gift to all of my followers and listeners, I dropped TWO mixes at midnight to celebrate life in 2022! Discotonic + Tonicdisco are two equally matched remarkable mixes fueled with flashback retrodisco energy. Featuring reinterpretations of epic club classics from the 70s and 80s, these dual mixes also pepper in plenty of new grooves too. What better way to get 2022 started than with uplifting vocals, pouncing pianos, and hands-in-the-air vibes? Thanks for being part of the Remarkable experience. Let’s hope for positive energy in the New Year...

Lightwave has an interesting backstory. It was originally conceived in November 2020 with the opening track always intended to be the first song of the mix. Over time, several songs danced in and out of the playlist, but the mood of the mix has always been on the same intense trajectory. In the spring of 2021, I released the first part of my two part opus called Annoconfinamento. I expected the original Lightwave project to be part two of the Annoconfinamento soundscape, but as I continued to tinker with and refine it, Lightwave evolved into its own distinct aural journey. This path took me much further than expected — so far, in fact, that Lightwave is now the longest mix I’ve ever curated...pushing 5 hours of music. It’s an interplay of moody new progressive tracks, intermingled with some emotional classics and a few reinterpretations of monster late night dance floor grooves. So get ready to board this serious, menacing, progressive rocket that will transport you into new orbits. Come ride the Lightwave with me and feel how far it goes.

To cope with this surreal and unprecedented past year, I turned to music to ease my mind and soothe my soul. I invested positive energy into my DJ livestreams, which debuted in April 2020 and continue to this day. I’ve been able to connect with so many friends and fans, both new and old, all over the world, through our passion for great music. Last summer, that inspiration led to a 2-part music mix called #stayhouse to bring light into our darkest days. This spring, I am doing the same but with a different style and intention. This 2-part series is called “Annoconfinamento” (which means “Lockdown Year” in Italian) and brings a collection of intense, intelligent, and deep yet driving progressive energy together for a magnificent immersion in unmistakable, remarkable sound. Part I eases you into the groove with electro bubbling basslines and synths, and slowly builds with intention and intensity. Part II, to be released soon, boldly opens with one of my favourite songs from 2020, and the driving energy and life-giving forces continue throughout the audio adventure. Arguably one of the most perfectly programmed and well-curated Remark mixes of all time, I hope you enjoy parts I and II of this Annoconfinamento aural journey…

Wow what a f*cking year. A struggle, a challenge, a detriment. As I’ve said many times, during such troubled moments I turn to music — and this year warrants that escape more than any other. To bring hope and light to the darkness, I present Couleurs: the definitive final remarkable mix of 2020. Couleurs represents the pinnacle of my current sonic definition and I couldn’t be more proud of the results. Featuring all new music from this year and several updated reinterpretations of well-known Remark classics, this mix demonstrates the diverse colour palette of my ever-evolving yet true-to-form sound. The journey is equally inspired by the extraordinary livestreams I’ve hosted this year during lockdown. The celebrated Remark Sunday Sessions, broadcasting fortnightly on twitch.tv/remarkentral at 6 PM UK time, have been a consistent creative escape to a shared virtual global dance floor. So turn it up and rejoice in the Remarkable spectrum of sound. This is Couleurs.

2020 continues to heat up with part two of the remarkable mix of the summer. Although this year has been unexplainably chaotic, if there’s one thing I can turn to that frees my mind and body it’s MUSIC. And this mix is no exception. Inspired by the creativity during lockdown, #stayhouse (the evening hour) picks up in vibe right after its predecessor. This 3-hour mix kicks things up a notch, catapulting you into a bliss-filled house groove complete with intense piano stabs, throbbing bass-lines, and empowered divas. And there are some reborn classics thrown in, taking you back to reimagined Remark dance floors. So even though this year we’re all staying home, let’s celebrate #stayhouse.

Inspired by creativity during lockdown — and the success from the weekly Remark Sunday Sessions DJ livestream — I’m pleased to release the remarkable mix of the summer. Aptly titled #stayhouse, this mix is divided into two distinct yet connected house music experiences. Part one, released in June, is called “(the magic hour)”, with a delectable curated selection of sunset grooves. In July, part two is revealed — “(the evening hour)” — which kicks the energy up several notches yet retains that positive vibe. The energy builds as you experience both mixes back to back. So let (the magic hour) ease you into the journey with a cocktail in hand and get prepared to dance well into (the evening hour) as the music compels you to raise your hands in air — even if you’re dancing at home in your living room during these uncertain times!

I dropped the first remarkable mix of 2020 as a surprise on my birthday — the intensely curated Raconteur. As the title implies, this mix strives to tell an ever-developing story through sound. The soundscape opens with hazy rhythms, and swiftly builds into a chunky progressive groove with hints of vocals. This theme continues as the mix accelerates, with more vocals and hints of world music thrown in to complement the percussion and throbbing bass lines. The journey soothes near the end, with the final track being one of the most emotive on any Remark release. Experience this ride and celebrate the story with me. This is Remark, Raconteur.

After the previous intense trance release, Run 3, it felt like a good time to revisit some grooving progressive house that had been brewing for a while. Excursion was inspired by journeys at night — the ride going out to a club, the journey of the evening, and the sonic adventure of the dancefloor itself. The mix kicks in right away with a galloping pace. Vocals cruise in about 45 minutes into the groove and then as the mix nears the 3 hour mark, it accelerates with a vengeance before climaxing on an emotional and nostalgic tip. Be sure to carry the feeling all the way through and experience this remarkable Excursion from start to finish.

2018 concludes with the progressive and temperamental mix called Protean. This tech-house soundscape meanders through intelligent electronica, hypnotic percussion, hints of world music, and well-balanced vocals. A portion of the mix pays homage to the past, featuring a medley of new interpretations of classic 1990 progressive anthems. The rhythm and energy of Protean shifts and morphs over three hours, successfully earning the definition of its title: "tending or able to change frequently or easily and able to do many different things”. It concludes on a down-groove emotional tip, with the final lyrics begging the listener to “stay with me”. Enjoy this three hour sonic story to finish off the remarkable year.

On 15 July 2018, I got married to the man of my dreams in London. At the end of the incredible day, I curated a celebratory dance mix to conclude the event. The 2-hour medley — appropriately titled “Wedlock” — features some of the most memorable Remarkable vocal anthems that have rocked dance floors throughout the years. The mix was released at the precise moment it got played at the wedding, so that Remarkable fans around the world could experience the uplifting vibe at the same time. And for those guests who attended the event in person, you can now relive the triumphant dance party from the end of our spectacular day. So dance and sing, get up and do your thing — and remember that love wins, every time!

In 2016, Remark presents Pet Shop Boys: Encomium 1986 - 2016 was released to celebrate 30 years of Pet Shop Boys. The mix, recorded live in Edinburgh for the Pet Shop Boys Symposium, contained 3+ hours of remixed hits from every album spanning their multi-decade career. Although a number of notable songs were included, there were some significant tracks that were missed. It’s now time to revisit the Pet Shop Boys' impressive catalog and finish what was started. This is Encomium II — packed with even more hits, rarities, remixes and collaborations. This 3-hour Remark tribute mix continues to celebrate the most successful pop duo of all time, featuring at least one song from every album through 2018 and other tracks from every decade of the Pet Shop Boys’ relentlessly successful career.

The first remarkable soundscape of the year makes a grand entrance. 2018 signifies DJing for 30 years and this mix celebrates storytelling and dance floor inculcation through house music. I’ve always been thrilled with and inspired by telling stories through the music — carefully curating tracks that weave in and out of each other — creating a journey that takes the listener on a physical and mental experience from start to finish. Inculcator is the latest intentional chapter in this dancefloor celebration and the cerebral adventure that goes with it.

I recently had an incredible night out seeing Hercules & Love Affair perform live in London...it was a disco-infused house music experience and it reminded me of the glory days of the 1990s when the dancefloor was filled with vocals, piano stabs, funky samples, and throbbing-bobbing bass lines. I was inspired to tap into that positive energy to bring 2017 to a close with this uplifting Remarkable mix. Appropriately titled Lovelife, it celebrates disco soul and the feeling of unity that the dance floor brings…pulling together some recent club tunes and pairing them with some of my biggest vocal anthems from decades past. So when you’re in the mood to be energized and to simply feel good, throw this bouncing medley on and live the Lovelife spirit.

Remarklassics returns after a 4 year hiatus. This latest installment, “Dreamin’”, picks up where the last one left off: after some intense hours of peaking, this mix takes you into the dreamlike state of the dance floor in those very early hours of the morning. Those hours were always magical, when the darkest night turned into dawn and you literally felt like you were floating through music. This 3 hour journey showcases the intensity and melodies of some of the biggest progressive house tracks of the 1990s. It’s absolutely worth experiencing the set from start to finish, as though you were in the club at 5 AM, soon to watch the sunrise. Forever remembering…forever dreaming.

Much like the title implies, the mix begins with a meteoric rise in rhythmic intensity that throbs its way across the dance floor. There are a few nods to the past, with some new interpretations of classic tracks. But for the most part, this mix showcases new and fresh music from 2017 to keep you moving. As the 3-hour mix subsides, the energy shifts into sensual, moody tech…aiming to match your mental state at the end of a glorious club night. Meteoric indeed, it’s been well worth the wait.

The summer of 2016 concludes with Rhythm, a mix that has been a few years in the making. Last year, it almost made its debut right after the remarkable vocal celebration mix, Harmony. Harmony and Rhythm were always intended to be companion mixes, and this one is the deeper and dubbier of the two. Filled with throbbing, unstoppable basslines, some uplifting house vocals, and most importantly layer upon layer of percussion...this mix is a groove that doesn't want to stop.

Solstice debuts as the remarkable summer mix of 2016. This mix has special meaning to me as it is dedicated to the victims of the Pulse Orlando shooting that took place in June. This vocal-infused house music experience celebrates life and the community of the dancefloor and is intended to keep you uplifted and smiling and dancing all night long. Stylistically, it has a few nods to the 1990s when I DJed every week in Orlando, and also has some summer gems from the past few years in addition to brand new music. Enjoy this house celebration.

After the previous uplifting mix of the summer - Harmony - we move on to celebrate late summer and the darker parts of the evening with Manoeuvre. I envision that this mix begins around 2:00 a.m.: that time of night when the surreal and moody vibes take control and truly lose yourself in the journey that that dance floor provides. Intense, trippy, and even melodic, Manoeuvre should satisfy your deep and dark dance floor desires.

Joining the ranks of 2001's Breathe and 2002's Evolution, I'm proud to bring you a mix that's been in the works for years: Senescence. This mix, which reflects upon the idea of aging, dips very deep into minimal, dubby, tech-inspired grooves. More of an intellectual headphone mix than a dance floor stomper, Senescence inspires movement in the darkest of nights.

Here's a new Remarkable release to keep your summer of 2012 bright and brilliant. "Lucent" is a spirited and uplifting foray into nu-disco and synthpop, and yet again reveals another facet of my passion for all kinds of house music. Inspired by my DJ friends the Cosmonauts, I began tinkering with this summery mix in 2010. This updated and finished version showcases an assortment of current and classic radiant electro tunes that will push you to the dance floor with a smile on your face. Enjoy!

For July, I'm excited to bring my listeners the second installment of the Remarklassics series, "Progressin'". This set showcases so much of what made the 1990s great: epic 10+ minute mixes with extraordinary mind-blowing and teeth-grinding breakdowns, exploding into timeless, uber-intense climaxes. So crank up Remarklassics Volume II and flashback to those incredible late night moments!

Recently I rediscovered an entire case of Remark cassettes from the 1990s, and I became completely nostalgic about those glory years of clubbing. The audio quality on the cassettes is not very good, so I became inspired to remaster and re-record some of the best Remarkable anthems from that time period. The idea morphed into a new compilation called Remarklassics. Enjoy the first one in the series, Pumpin'. Complete with diva vocals, sirens, and intense rhythm, this is definitive old-school Remark.

More incredible musical energy this spring with a brand new Remark release, Darkoom. This collection of darker, almost techno tunes has been waiting for the perfect time to strike. Uniting some older progressive treats with new dance floor stompers, this mix showcases brooding (and even acidic) basslines, sharp synth stabs, driving energy, and intense yet sparse vocals. Download to celebrate yet another Remarkable chapter of intense music in a Darkroom filled with sound.

Spring 2012 kicks off a remarkable venture into new sonic territory. A Remark first, Supernova slows things down to a cool, deep, sexy 115 beats per minute. This chugging groove interweaves the past and the present through heavy basslines, dubby flashbacks, and minimal space house into one coherent dance floor experience with a massive climax. Let Supernova take you on a new and experimental remarkable journey...

2012 begins with part 2 of a two-part new Remarkable mix, collectively entitled Prism+Spectrum. Originally intended to be just one mix, the sound grew to be two distinct, yet connected aural journeys. Prism is darker, deeper, and more brooding; and then Spectrum breaks through with light and color and showers the listener with uplifting energy. Both mixes weigh in at over two hours, and showcase a varied range and compass of incredible sound.

In 2000, I left my DJing career and moved away from Orlando, FL to Dallas, TX. My future was uncertain and my life was full of change. Now in 2011,here I am relocating from Atlanta, GA to London, UK. My life is yet again filled with extraordinary change and uncertainty. To commemorate this, I bring you Breathe. An intensely emotional mix, Breathe was recorded in Dallas when my life was up in the air. I thought it would be a great way to symbolize my move to London, now ten years later. Enjoy the mix.

I figured that in 2011 I'd go ahead and upload the remainder of my mixes that I've made over the past 10 years, and to kick off this year, I bring you Perspective. A dark, brooding, deep, progressive stomper, Perspective would be the perfect companion to some late night partying. Originally recorded in 2002, it's got some great big club classics. Hope you enjoy this Perspective.

This mix will certainly heat up what's left of winter and get you ready for spring. This mix is classic Remark, with the kind of energy you'd expect during a prime set of a massive club night. Some of it even hints at a dance-rock theme, with thumping new mixes of U2, Editors, and Doves. Probably one of my most "four-on-the-floor" mixes to date, this podcast will have you grooving in no time. Make it a priority to get on the dance floor!

Well it's been since January since I have released a new mix, so I thought it would be nice to have two podcasts this summer! The first one is a flashback to 2001 called Recollection. It is quite an emotional mix for me, filled with some of the best late night and after-party tracks from the 1990s that highlighted my DJing career.

The past few mixes, particularly Radio and Prime have really focused on the positive side of Remarkable energy. For the holidays in 2008, I'm taking it dark, dark, dark with Obsidian. Inspired by discovering an old mix on a mini-disc I found, Obsidian is certainly the deepest mix I have ever put together. Only one track has vocals, and they are creepy at best. This holiday, enjoy the darker side of Remark.

The 2008 Remark mix of the summe is here--the definitive Prime. I must admit, Prime is one of my favorite mixes ever--the energy starts so smooth, and just builds and builds with positive momentum. Inspired by my nights in Sydney, Australia, Prime is the perfect mix for prime time.

A fantastic way to kick off the summer, with perhaps my most "pop" mix ever made. Every song is filled with vocals, and it has total commercial appeal to please the widest of audiences. The mix is great for a summer afternoon by the pool or to ensure your party is uplifting and fun. So enjoy Radio, what I wish they'd play more of on the radio!

Probably one of the more progressive tech mixes I have ever made, Hyperspace is the classic sunrise mix--perfectly crafted to take you on an audio journey. There's only a handful of vocal snippets in the entire mix, so it's the music and really stands out. So put on Hyperspace and enjoy the trancey trip.

A perfect mix to kick off 2008! This is my first new mix since Shine, which was released in February of 2007. This mix reminds me of the early 1990s, when I was just starting to seriously DJ...it's filled with uplifting vocals, great breakdowns, and positive energy. It's one of those mixes you listen to over and over again! I hope you enjoy the vibe as much as I do! Happy New Year...

For this podcast I thought I would revive an old favorite progressive house mix of mine entitled Remember. For those of you who were clubbing in the "hey day" of the mid-90s and early 2000s, this will certainly make you remember and relive some of the amazing music going on during that time. Epic breakdowns, sultry vocals, and layered productions created chemistry like no other. So take a listen and let the music bring back the memories...

The name says it all...this month's edition of the Remarkable Podcast is an adventure into the post-3 AM hour. Dark, brooding, and most importantly, tribal--this mix from 2001 is filled with drums, rhythm, and psychedelic reverberations. It even contains some classic Orlando anthmes from the 1990s. One of my favorite mixes, I hope that it makes you feel or do something Dirty.

Described as an "energetic jolt of amazing melodies, slamming vocals, and killer beats", Shock is quite intense for this initial joint DJ venture between myself and Brian Maier. We both selected our own tracks, and programmed quite the creation. We dabble with progressive mostly but even venture into breakbeat with a dark and dirty twist. It's quite a ride...or quite a Shock.

A mix from 2004 will kick off the February podcast. Entitled Reserved and inspired by my former residency at BazzaarLounge, this mix is designed to showcase my sound from the beginning of the evening to the end. It begins fairly mellow, then builds up through house, explodes into progressive, and comes down with some tribal-tech grooves.

This month's Remarkable Podcast brings you Evidence of Evolution, a mix I did a few years ago with one of my best friends, Anthony Lado. Unlike my other club music mixes, this one is definitely more jazz and tech-house influenced, ideal to play in the background at a party or to chill to while having wine with friends. Listening to it brings a smile to my face every time I hear it, and I hope it has the same effect on you

Hold on folks, I'm breaking out the archives! After popular request, I'm showcasing my "Best of Remark" series this month and next. This is the first part, 1991 through 1995. These were the songs that "made me who I am" as a DJ--the high-energy vocal tracks from the 1990s that created a foundation and DJ passion that would drive me until this day. So enjoy these classic, nostalgic Remark tunes, they are some of my favorites for sure.

Here's a mix from a few years ago called Glamour. I find Glamour to be one of my sexiest mixes, as if it isn't obvious by the skin I'm showing on the cover...ha! The mix starts off smooth and easy, then continues to build as the rhythms get more intense and the sound grooves from big to dark to loud. One of my favorite late-night creations...

On July 22, I had the pleasure of returning to something I know very well--the radio! My friends at EDM Sound System were kind enough to host me playing for their show on WREK 91.1 FM. I recorded the two hour show and am now posting it as a podcast. The show also features an interview with the duo Deepsky, who played in Atlanta that night. Hope you guys enjoy the mix!

The Remarkable Summer mix of 2006 has arrived. It's called Vital. Certainly what you'd expect to hear from me--exhilarating, rousing, and intense. Filled with peaks of techno-buildups and valleys of rumbling basslines, if I had to use one word to describe this mix I'd say "wow". I hope you too will enjoy this: Vital. The Remark Summer Sound, 2006.

Summer is upon us, and I thought it would be appropriate to publish an uplifting mix from last year. Start is a feel-good mix, with plenty of vocals and bright energy. I planned it with the intention that one would listen to it when starting the day or starting the night--it's perfect for playing on a bright sunny afternoon or for blasting in the car on your way out to a club. So download the mix, crank it up, and Start something!

Ah, a classic Remark mix! I think the name says it all. This mix has always been a favorite with many of my friends, and I figureds probably the most intense mix I have ever made, filled with heavy bass, screeching sounds, and treble gains. Just like the name implies, it was mastered to be turned up loud. Guaranteed to get you energized and moving, Volume is sure to satisfy.

This month I decided to post one of my favorite mixes, entitled Artwork. I'm very fond of it because I feel it truly represents my sound. Every track has vocals, and it's very stimulating and energetic. The dynamic soundscape ventures from underground to pop, yet all of it retains intense momentum. A true tribute to DJing as an art form, and all the work that goes into it. Tune in and enjoy this month's podcast, Artwork.

This first podcast features my latest mix — an audio celebration of sorts, to signify my 33rd Birthday. The mix is a vibrant collection of driving house music, taking the listener on a ride through bouncy basslines, hard synths, and progressive rhythms. Certainly a representation of my sound, I hope the energy moves achieves its goal: to get you moving.
