Francesco Argentieri, class '96, is a South Italy based DJ and producer.

Since he was a child, his parents noticed his natural attitude to the music's listening and appreciation, developing in the early years of adolescence his love for rock and metal music.
Since then, he started studying music, at first with classical guitar to then approach to the electric one.

Growing up, developing his own musical taste and getting experienced, even attending his first parties in the clubs, he matured an affinity with techno music, and so he started at first learning the roots of mixing, while still always searching for the most unheard music from all over the globe, making of him an ever-growing DJ, who thanks to his various musical influences, always manages to offer high impact DJ sets on the dancefloor.

2019 marks his debut as a producer, releasing on a VV.AA. for the infamous Dutch label Planet Rhythm, to then release in 2020 his first EP on Insolate's Out Of Place and in 2021 his first LP, "Natural Killer", on Diffuse Reality.

Gaetano Parisio from Napoli, Italy is one of the most consistent artists in techno, contributing to the late-90s hard groove scene by releasing records that became staples in every respectable DJ’s record box while working with frequent collaborator Marco Carola to hoist the Napolitano sound into the spotlight. Following a decade away from the spotlight (though never the studio), he has re-emerged with new collaborations as well as digital reissues of his classic catalog, setting the stage for a new GAETEK LIVE show that will introduce his 25 years of timeless music to techno’s next generation.

Hey, Gareth here, I'm a graphic designer who start designing for clubs, parties, and labels in the late 90s. Back then, mix CDs were the holy grail of both design and music. I loved them.

But I wasn't the only one, mix cds were the soundtracks of our nights, our days, our afterparties and lives, for everyone. Yet in today's internet age, the art form has been lost (or just changed) to 2-3 hour online mixes and streaming videos, which just don't create the same magic your CD collection did. Just 60 minutes of music and incredible artwork.

The Classic Mix CD Series celebrates these discs, their soundtrack, their box art and your memories. We hope you enjoy it.

About Gareth:
Digital creative type, gamer, music lover and occasional DJ. Currently living between Dubai & Seoul after setting sail from Sunderland in 2010. As a young designer, club and music culture was the driving force for his work, producing artwork for local club nights and record labels in the North East of England. In particular, DJ mix cds and their packaging were always his 'holy grail of design', especially those from Renaissance, Global Underground and Good Looking Records. It's a pleasure to share these discs back with people and they still influence our tastes to this day.
