We all remember with mixed feelings the past two years of domestic isolation: a temporary anomaly in which the world had to adjust to a new routine, a new rhythm. In these daunting yet precious circumstances, Italian producer Markeno has found his rhythm back, dusting off old records and re-approa- ching his past musical love affairs that he believed to be long forgoCen.
Here, in the fertile limbo that connects past and future, “Dock lown (exploring)” is born: a 3-tracker release with a chameleonic nature and an undeniable
groove, in which Markeno is able to tactfully combine different genres such as indie, post-rock, African music, electro and funk.
In the contemporary music scene, overly saturated with catchy melodies and seductive lyrics, it is refreshing to encounter a composition like “Fase 01”, which starts from a purely percussive structure. Just when the ear is settled and well inserted into the tangle of drums, here comes the melodic twist, no less than at the fourth minute, injecting an unexpected groove and chalking out the contours of a track with mul6ple personali6es: a liCle esoteric, a little synth-wave, quirky and badass.
The temperature rises with “Zona Rossa”, in which the electro hint sketched in “Fase 01” becomes more pronounced, opening the doors to a dense psychedelic scenario. A shamanic loop accompanies the electric bass and escorts us through the smoke of the bonfire, veils swayed by the wind and colored lights that sparkle in the night.
The ritualistic humming of ‘’Zona Rossa”’ is still hearable, floating in the rarefied atmosphere, while the last track “Limbo” makes its entrance and confirms once again the poliedric but congruous essence of this release, whose percussive attitude lures you in and whose hypnotic and groovy body makes you stay. At least for one more dance.

RPN is a music producer, remixer, radio host and DJ. His experiments in music are a reflection of his emotions. His musical style is based on use of unconventional structures of deliberately dry, static drum rhythm, which is supported by a synthetic electric bass line as the groove foundation. The basic structure is supplemented by additive sound elements. These sound elements include synthetic percussion and bass lines, electric guitars and other instruments. RPN often goes past his represented style by going to extremes and inserting deep industrial samples, pop music elements or jazz standards into his music. RPN’s productions meet the self-imposed challenge of harnessing avant-garde techniques at the service of individual and collective dance floor ecstasy.
His time DJing has given him a truly broad palette to work with while curating your perfect night of music. Every set was presented in different form and fulfilled with strong and positive emotions. He plays upbeat, uplifting, high-energy music which goes in hand with his energetic nature in the booth. He likes different styles of music; however, at the top of his list are: Techno, Electro, Trance, Tech-house, EDM, UK Bass and Indie Dance.
RPN tailors musical sets to create the feelings the dance floor wants, whether that's a rush of excitement, giddy highs and bone-shaking lows for a basement on a weekend night, a warm and relaxing chill-out session for a midweek wind-down, cutting edge tracks for the innovation-hungry or more familiar classics for those simply seeking a good time.
