Marasco is based in the Hawaiian Islands living his life in the ocean while being immersed in the beauty and power of his natural surroundings. This amazing visual setting helps to fuel his outlet, music. The passion for music has been with him since before he can remember and every free moment is dedicated to creating innovative and fresh auricular portrayals of life. Music is his way of expressing personal feelings through sounds and rhythms, based on daily inspirations without limitations.
When Marasco is not traveling you can catch one of his Dj sets at Asylum Afterhours in Honolulu. Through Djing and production, this talent’s vision is to create music and sounds without any kind of restrictions. In 2000 he started taking Ding and music production seriously, beginning collaborations with respected producer & keyboardist Dj Tuccillo.
Marasco & Tuccillo created Hawabiza Project for a more classic house sound. Their first release came out on Seamless Recordings followed by another release on City Deep Music SF. Already being a part of City Deep Music SF releasing the Haiku EP in 2009, November 2010 brought Marasco into the Orion Muzik family and sub-labels Inside Orion, Intelligence, and Blacklabel, Danilo Vigorito’s labels. Between 2009 and 2011, he continued to release tracks and remixes for the mentioned labels and also Underground Collective, a historical NYC House Label. Eventually his work led to a very successful release in June 2012 on Surface Recordings, Halo/H Foundation’s imprint, which included remixes by DJ Sneak, Danilo Vigorito, and Halo.
His connection with classic house and the U.S., West Coast sound opened doors to more remixes on several record labels. Iside Music, his new project with Danilo Vigorito and Gretchen Rhodes was created to break down the barriers of old school House and to introduce a different sound to the dance floor. Marasco’s first release on Iside Music is scheduled for the end of 2012.
While his projects are done with no limitations and always follow daily inspirations, it has brought him to play in many different countries such as; Germany, Italy, Thailand, Spain, Ibiza, Usa and very important festivals and events such as WMC, DEMF, and was involved in different radio shows on Ibiza Sonica and Ibiza Global Radio.
January 2013 will be his first appearance at the BPM Festival in Playa Del Carmen and the Surface Recordings label party on January 9th

Jimpster: The UK House craftsman shaping soundscapes with soul and subtlety

If you’ve ever lost yourself in the smooth, rolling rhythms of deep house, you’ve probably had Jimpster to thank without even knowing it.  Behind the decks, in the studio, or even just in the groove of his own life, Jimpster—aka Jamie Odell—is one of the quiet yet crucial architects of the genre, a producer who’s somehow managed to keep his sound fresh while paying homage to house music’s roots.  With releases stretching back to the early 90's, Jimpster’s sonic journey has evolved from the cut n paste, sample-heavy bedroom productions of his early releases to the deep house anthems he’s known for today.  He’s the artist who’s mastered the art of organic warmth, blending digital precision with analog textures in ways that sound both timeless and ahead of their time.  His music often draws from a deep well of influences: jazz, funk, soul, electro and even ambient textures—but it’s always tethered to the dancefloor.  He’s the kind of producer who can make a sub-bass rumble feel like a heartbeat while surrounding it with lush, atmospheric synths and intricate percussion that push his tracks into a hypnotic, almost meditative space.

Jimpster's discography is packed with both original tracks and remixes that make you move without even realising it: there’s the spaced-out, trippy disco allure of “English Rose”, the groove-heavy slo-mo swagger of “The Sun Comes Up” (which is basically the soundtrack to *that* sunset), and let’s not forget the timeless “Dangly Panther.”  Each track feels like a wave—a smooth ride that pulls you along effortlessly but leaves you wanting more.  His remix of Osunlade’s Momma’s Groove has become iconic but he has also offered his golden touch to artists as diverse as Seal, Bob Marley, Kerri Chandler, Josh Wink and Adam Port to name just a few.

But Jimpster’s influence doesn’t just stay in the studio.  As a DJ, his sets are like a carefully curated journey, blending stripped back disco, underground house and the more soulful end of techno into smooth, liquid transitions that captivate without ever feeling rushed.  Whether he’s playing an intimate, low-key club night or a larger festival stage, his mixes retain a sense of control—an ability to weave a narrative out of tempo, tone and texture, always keeping the dancefloor locked in.  From Panorama Bar (Berlin) to Cielo (NYC), Womb (Tokyo) to Fabric (London), Jimpster has pretty much span there and returned with the T shirt.

As co-founder and A&R of Freerange, Delusions Of Grandeur and most recently Cyphon Recordings, he’s helped nurture an entire generation of producers, sharing his deep understanding of groove and sound design with those who came after him.  Despite his three decades in the business and pivotal role in shaping the electronic music landscape, Jimpster remains relentlessly focused on who, or what, will come next, as excited as ever by discovering the freshest new talent and sounds to expose to the world.

Jimpster’s music is a reflection of his unrelenting pursuit of musical depth in club music.  A balance between nostalgic warmth and forward-focussed vision that continues to captivate listeners and dancers alike. For him, it’s not about creating music for the moment, but building sounds that resonate over time, long after the track has finished playing.
