Luxemburgish born and raised, of Italian decent, Marino Berardi has caught everyone’s attention these last years with a hand of worldwide celebrated tracks and remixes.
Being the first Benelux producer to be released and licensed on prestigious American labels such as Subliminal and François K’s Wave, Marino has established his unique deep & progressive production style that has seen him release twelves principally on the today defunct imprint, Wally’s Groove World and its sublabels Forced and MB Recordings especially dedicated to his work.
Marino’s science of sound has contributed to a solid serie of releases paying tribute to most of his influences including Detroit Techno, American and European House, Hip Hop, Dub, Funk and Disco.
Think about two of his most acclaimed tracks so far : Expression in E Dub (licensed by François K for Wave) and Plan B are reminiscent of the hedonistic age of house from the beginning of the nineties and were getting him magic props from Darren Emmerson, Mr. C, Tayo or Colin Mc Bean.
2000 saw also his first and brilliant remix work with Arsenal’s “A Volta†on Wha? Recordings, a brazilian epic of twelve minutes acclaimed by Russ Dewburry, Peter Kruder, Rainer Trüby, Jazzanova and Kyotto Jazz Massive between many others.
In 2001, the Freesoul Ep on Moody and the Background EP on Ovum, were both warmly welcomed by those in the know including Terry Francis, Laurent Garnier, Dj Q, Peace Division, Silicone Soul while his subtle retake of Doing Shows from Floppy Sounds impressed master tweakers like King Britt and Rainer Trüby.
Many compilations such as the famous Renaissance, DMC & Fabric series licensed Berardi’s tracks to complete their selection. As a dj, Marino has received major welcome in all the clubs he visited throughout Belgium, France, Spain, Germany, England and Japan.
Energetic and precise, his particular mixing skills assure him to be an excellent party dj offering every time an unforgettable night of cutting-edge beats.
