With a DJing career spanning 3 decades Mark's style has always been feel good tracks to make a dance floor move. As well as holding a number of residencies, Mark has had guest appearances for events around the UK. He is a regular guest on UK radio shows and can also be found presenting his own 'Feel Good Show' on Housemaster Radio at 6pm Fridays Bi weekly.

Mark burst onto the producing scene in 2020 with a debut top 20 Nu Disco hit 'Feeling Good' on Dubplate Disco Recordings. This was followed up with a collaboration with Wayne Soul Avengerz and Odyssey Inc 'Give Me Your Love' which reached Number 3 on the Traxsource charts.

Over the next 2 years Mark scored a host Nu Disco top 10 hits with 'Satisfaction' on the world famous Pornostar Records, Savin’ It and ‘Party People’ both on All Night Long records (Midnight City’s label), ‘Sunshine’ on Trois Garcon and a Beatport top 10 with Discotron titled ‘Ibiza Uncovered’. He also received a massive accolade of having his track ‘A Message Of Love’ being awarded in the “Hed Kandi Anthems of 2021”
National radio plays (Kiss FM) of ‘Party People’ and ‘Bring Ya Vibe’ have pushed Mark as one of the hottest emerging Nu Disco producers.

Andrea Fiorino, born in 1979, is most popular today for his radio show Mastermix broadcast on more than 30 radio stations worldwide at the moment and also for his obsession with mashups - he made more than 100 mashups to the present some of which are highlighted and played by the big names on the house scene like Frankie Knuckles, Grant Nelson, DJ Meme or Jask. He also works on some "proper" house music productions - alone or together with his friends like Arco, Poco or Thomas Back - or tries to bring some world famous house DJs and producers to his hometown - Brno, Czech Republic - thru his residencies in the various local clubs.

If there’s anyone who prompts the question “When does he find time to make that?” it’s serial editor and remixer Pete Le Freq. For more than 20 years he’s been reworking disco and funk classics as label boss of Alpaca Edits and Llama Farm Recordings, updating originals with a distinctive dance‑floor edge. His prolific remixes have been played by DJs worldwide — he’s a regular at Beatherder, made his Ring stage debut this summer alongside Utah Saints and Jaegerossa, and is a Mastermix remixer alongside Ben Liebrand, Sgt Slick and DJ S. He’s shared decks with Young Pulse, Michael Gray, Craig Charles, Dr Packer and Jo Whiley, and already has dates booked for 2026. 

Simply put:  he makes what he loves in the headphones come out the big speakers.

Disco For Funky Monkeys!

Hot-stepping into the disco jungle, Hot Gorilla Records blur the lines between disco, funk, house and reworked edits. And they come at you with one aim and one aim only - to make you go bananas on the dancefloor!

Founded by Andy Buchan and Conan The Selector in May 2020 as the pandemic hit, the duo brought some much-needed ‘good times’ to the disco scene. And when clubs did open up again, they were straight into action, touring the UK as DJ support for The Brand New Heavies including sold-out dates in Liverpool, Leeds, Manchester and Nottingham. 

Musically they strut the line between disco, funk and house, championing original music and heavily reworked edits. 

And they’ve had plenty of dance floor success including several Juno Download No.1s, multiple Traxsource Top 10s and four tracks in the Best of 2021 Beatport chart. 

The Hot Gorilla Records family currently includes founders Andy Buchan and Conan The Selector alongside guests like Fingerman, Chewy Rubs, Mannix, Monsieur Van Pratt, Akeem Raphael and a big troop of funky monkeys. 

And with an album on the way, a 2nd birthday to celebrate in May 2022 and gigs across the UK and beyond, Hot Gorilla Records will continue to bring the ‘Good Times’ as they make people go bananas on the dancefloor.

Melbourne based producer and DJ Sgt Slick has been a solid fixture behind the decks and on dance music charts and radio for the better part of 20 years. He has a huge list of achievements to his name including ARIA / APRA Awards and nominations, Billboard, Music Week, Traxsource & Beatport # 1 Records, and a string of successful music releases. Armed with a continuous delivery of his trademark ‘Discotizer ReCuts’, he also produced the crossover radio hit and ARIA Gold Certified ABBA cover, ‘Gimme! Gimme! Gimme!’ in 2020 (Beatport’s highest selling Nu Disco single of all time!)… a track which is still filling dance floors in 2024 and one which has seen The Sarge headlining the nation’s biggest clubs and events week after week since. He has graced the cover of Spotify’s esteemed ‘New Dance Beats’ playlist twice, is ranked # 6 on Beatport’s highest selling artists of all time in the ‘Nu Disco’ genre, and reached the # 1 position on Shazam’s Discovery Australia Chart! His recent remixes and productions have earnt him regular support from the likes of Jamie Jones, Diplo, Fisher, Vintage Culture, Kygo and Tame Impala, whilst at home he continues to land in the upper reaches of the ARIA Club Chart with every release. With his past releases encompassing some of Australia’s finest moments in dance music history, Sgt Slick remains one of the nation’s most prominent and enduring industry figures, continually pushing forward as a world class DJ, Producer and Remixer.
