Muallem has always focused his attentions on the communal experience of dancing. This love was incubated in Munich, a city where Muallem first found himself sneaking into clubs at the tender age of 15. Over the years, his career saw him produce and perform under many guises and live across the world exploring local scenes and movements whilst refining his own DJ craft. However, it was when he returned to Munich after over a decade abroad, that Muallem was able to make his biggest mark on electronic music and its community. 

Playing a key role at influential Munich club Bob Beaman, Muallem was the creative director and programmer until May 2016. Also occupying a resident slot, he rapidly gained a reputation for a vast depth of music knowledge, which he uses knitting together house, techno and disco jams drawn from across the decades. His immersion within the Munich scene saw him busy running SMiLE Festival and affiliated Art of Dance nights until 2017 when he opened Blitz, one of Europe’s most respected club institutions. Here his progressive music policy, dynamic understanding of audio acoustics as well as an appreciation of the relationship between DJ and dance floor came to the fore. 

His desire to open venues and create a blank canvas for artists to express themselves was also driven by wanting to create a club that makes you part of something, a community and a place of freedom for the people who are fleeing the everyday. His DJing feeds this atmosphere of escapist hedonism and elevates the crowd to those transcendent dance floor moments. As the creative director of Blitz, the risks he takes with club programming are reflected in the risks he takes with his selection while DJing, a talent which places him amongst the scenes established taste making luminaries. Always working to find unheard cuts or records others might stay away from, it was the educated crowds at Bob Beaman and Blitz that served as the perfect foil for him to master this craft as a selector.

With regular and mostly long lasting closing sets at Panorama Bar as well as landmark sets at Robert Johnson, Printworks, DC:10, Rex Club, IFZ, Bar Americas and Shelter, his international profile has grown to match his domestic reputation as a DJ with a revered approach to track selection and ability to inject ecstatic vibes into any party. Performing internationally allowed him to realise that a great experience on the dancefloor is such a universal happening that the location doesn’t matter. 

Another milestone on Muallems storied timeline is the creation of LGBTQI+ night Cruise. Finding its home at Blitz, Cruise is a project close to his heart that he created with two close companions, Gio and Werner. The idea for the night was established over the years out of the desire to promote inclusivity for all with a forward thinking approach to music, something which has been a defining trend throughout Muallems career. Muallem considers the night as “blueprint for what Blitz is about”, no wonder it’s international acclaim goes hand in hand with the club. 

He understands the primary purpose of a club and a DJ is to make people dance TOGETHER, so as a performer he is one that lets the music do the work for him. Selecting tunes that feel familiar yet new, Muallem has a connection with the crowd that only an experienced dancefloor campaigner can attain.


In 2020, Muallem took the chance of nightlife’s closure due to the global pandemic in the form of creating his very own musical imprint, CHILDHOOD. So far, the label released singles by DJ Deep & Don Williams as well as albums by Mr. G and CYRK.

World renowned club, GECKO BAR, probably the most infamous venue in Thailand/SE Asia.
After a 10 year legacy on the beach in Bophut, Koh Samui, GECKO BAR is now perched atop the mountainside in Bohput Hills. Boasting stunning views of the rolling jungle covered hillside and the gulf of Thailand, an infinity pool, great food, fantastic sound system and unrivalled, easy going hospitality this is a truly special place.

GECKO BAR has played host to some of house musics most revered luminaries over the years, djs including (to name but a few) MARSHALL JEFFERSON, CLIVE HENRY, SMOKIN' JO, JO MILLS, GRAEME PARK and DANNY RAMPLING.
Following a tough couple of years that has seen GECKO BAR destroyed by fire in Oct 2009 and then rebuilt we are now back in business and ready to regain our stature, standing, respect and become, once again, a major driving force for international cutting edge music and artists to showcase in Thailand.

Dj, recording artist and outright party animal 
Gary Gecko, has been the man behind the infamous Gecko Samui Beach Parties for the last 10 years and pioneer of what is now a thriving international club scene on the tropical island..

Hosting events from Grammy Award winning band Dirty Vegas LIVE, The Godfather of House.. Marshall Jefferson Danny Rampling’s “Last Ever” professional gig to Ministry of Sound’s “Chillout Sessions” Gary’s never had to do a lot of arm twisting to bring the likes of Norman Jay MBE, Graeme Park, Dub Pistols, Mark Knight, Hoxton Whores, Smokin’ Jo, Peace Division, Jon Carter, Terry Farley, Dave Seaman, The Freestylers, Brandon Block, Lisa Loud, Ricardo Villalobos, Nightmares On Wax, Leeroy Thornhill, Krafty Kuts & Tim Sheridan to name a few that have graced the Gecko Stage and chewed the fat with V.I.P guests the likes of Jay Kay & Mick Jagger.

But that’s not the half of this man’s many talents..
In between running Gecko Samui and touring the globe DJ’ing at the coolest venues from Ibiza to Japan, you’ll find him in the studio doing what he loves best.. making music!

With some strong releases over the last few years such as 
“Bomb the Terrace”, “Double Drop” and the silk stocking filler “She’s Hardcore” out on Toolroom a couple of years ago, Gary’s now taking it to another level. With over 15 brand new tracks finished and busting to get out there, the best way he know’s how… D .I .Y !

A brand new label "Gecko Records" masterminded by the Thailand legend himself, is set to make a monster impact amongst the dance music industry. 

The first release, "Dskasting" with quality vocals from Feral (formally known as MC Kinky...memorable for the Massive hit "Everything Starts with an E") an absolute club winner with a tough edge yet strong energetic vibe was a must for all Dj's bag!! 

This Gary Gecko & Pigbwoy collaboration has a host of remixes stemming from Dogtown Clash (Barry ashworth from the Dub Pistols), Leeroy Thornhill (from the Prodigy), the man who is - Jon Carter, Kriss Darang and Sanyi & Tritone a total complete package is delivered containing a remix for everyone. 

2008 was a big year for Mr Gecko, which ended on a Massive high on New Year’s Eve with the LAST EVER night at the Gecko beach venue!
It was last night of all last nights!” with the line up and guests consisting of 
the "who’s who" of the dance industry.

So after 10 years of magical memories on the beach, Gecko Moved.. 
'Onwards & Upwards' to a magical new venue built from scratch.. 
Samui now had an absolutely stunning new Gecko with one of the most
amazing views you'll ever see..

Until October 9th 2009 at 2pm, when disaster struck..
An electrical power surge in an extention socket caught fire while the Gecko family were sleeping off a busy night
and they woke up with the room ablaze. Escaping only with their lives, they lost everything within minutes.

The whole building was gone and everything inside too. They had lost everything down to the clothes on their backs. All the sound equipment and Gary's vast 25 year vinyl collection was destroyed alongside cds, computers, back-up drives the lot!

Unfortunately they weren’t insured as they hadn’t completely finished the building works and with the thatched roof it wasn’t exactly fire proof!

Since the fire, friends on the island and around the world have rallied round to help in every way possible.
DJs and producers from around the world have been sending Gary music on hard discs and usb sticks to help him get back on track and also helped to organize the Gecko Rebirth events with star-studded line-ups alongside Gary's brother Chris to help rebuild the Gecko again! 

Just two months down the line with a 50 strong force working around the clock, Gary's Vow to come back from the ashes became reality on New Years Eve when the newly built Gecko Samui opened it's doors, bigger, better and a lot more stylish with a fantastic new modern contemporary design in the same beautiful location on Bophut Hills.

2009 was Gary's 20th year as DJ and brought the opening of the NEW Gecko Samui, 

"Black Flower" was the first release on Gecko Records' Green Label, coming out on Jan 9th 2009. 

2010 brings some really special treats..

"The Greatest" also from Gary Gecko & Pigbwoy teaming up with Grammy winning Lyricist Keithen Carter and a Wicked collaboration with Gary, Keithen and The Godfather of House Marshall Jefferson "Up All Nite" with the one and only Curtis McClain on vocals..

Another with Gary, Keithen and Kriss Darang called "Better in The Dark" will also be released in the near future plus many more

There's also the follow-up to "Dskasting" with Feral, "Good Bad Ugly"
and a Big cover of Big Audio Dynamite coming out on the Orange label of Gecko Records in June 2009 and many many more things in the pipeline, so things are really looking very good for Gary Gecko!


Where did it all start.......... 

Gary Gecko was Inspired by the smoke and lights of London's original sweaty underground scene... Danny Rampling's "Shoom" at the fitness center in Southwark St, Lisa & Nancy's "Loud Noise" and "Future" at The Sound Shaft, with "Spectrum" Just next door at Heaven.... for Gary, it was exactly that!! 

Stick a couple of weeks in Ibiza in with all that, getting amongst it under the stars at Amnesia and he was hooked! The sounds of Chicago Acid House Trax, Mr Fingers, Marshall Jefferson, Adonis, Nightwriters & co, blending incredibly with the Balearic anthems of Enzo Avitabile, The Wooden Tops, The Residents and Thrashing Doves catapulted Gary straight into the record shops. 

Music had no boundaries for Gary after that and he found himself experimenting expanding the limits of House music (Musically of Course) Partying was and still is his favourite pastime and with the amount that man was doing then, he listened to a lot of music and built up an unbelievable record collection fast! 

After what Gary called "an 18 month apprenticeship", getting his foot in the door at all of the top clubs and outdoor venues in Tenerife, he decided it was time to head back and assault London's clubs....only this time, not just as a spectator! Close friends Blaine and Barry Ashworth (now with Dub Pistols ) had opened De Ja Vu records in Covent Garden. It was while playing in the shop that Gary met Darren Emmerson. They went on to be residents together for more than a year @ "Foreplay" in the Gass and "Naked Lunch" @ The Emporium. 

From then on, Gary established himself more and more playing in various clubs and events around London and the UK before deciding it was too cold for him in London SE3 and time to broaden his horizons and head for sunnier climbs onto playing Ibiza, Monte Carlo, Brazil, Hong Kong, Bangkok, & of course not forgeting the famous parties at his infamous Gecko Bar on the tropical island of Koh Samui, Thailand!.........
