Mezkla Francis Scarlino & Master M Saturday 4 May 2024

Francis Scarlino is a House Music DJ, producer from Geneva, Switzerland. From a very young age, he was initiated by his uncles who introduced him to dance music from "Black Box" to "Technotronic". Fascinated by MTV " The Grind " a famous show with Louie Vega and David Morales who revolutionized dance music in the 90's. A style of music with colorful sounds and groovy voices, featuring House Diva's such as Barbara Tucker, Jocelyn Brown, Dawn Tallman, Michelle Weeks, Adeva, Crystal Waters, Dajae and many others. This all made him love that style of music so much that he began to do his own research within the movement. 

During his youth, he became friends with Nicola Cocuzza who made him discover mixtapes of the show and famous parties "Pump It Up Live" and "Groovelift" by Djaimin and Mr.Mike on the Swiss radio "Couleur 3". From then-on, Francis made House Music his musical DNA and started buying his own vinyl records. Long before he came of age, he was already frequenting the best House Clubs in his town. We can mention Arthur's Club, the Guest-House where he will befriend Dj Mendo, DJ Djust, DJ Solo One. The MOA club, the Bypass club where he will often mix with Romain Pelletti and Chad Gonzalez. 

In 2009, Francis went to the Winter House Music Conference in Miami, Florida, USA, where the first night he joined a party with DJ Romain on the decks and Defected Dj's such as Jamie Lewis, Dj Mémé, Jay-J, Studio Apartment and many others.

He also played twice for Emil-Frey on the occasion of BMW and Mini cooper´s celebration birthday party's. And last but not least we cant forget the iconic Lake Parade in the city of Geneva, Switzerland, where he made several appearances in the past few years.   

Today, more than 10 years after the beginning of his journey in house music, he decides to set up his own label "Strictly House Music" and to start producing house music by setting up his own Home Studio. 

The famous Technics SL-1200 MK2 and the Pioneer CDJ series are no longer a secret for him. His house sets are powerful! And he plays original House music, from deep, soulful and afro house. His motto of a good house party remains the same as always! And that is making every house party unforgettable!!!
