Marcello Marchitto aka. Groovedust
Posted by evolutionmusic.net on Jun 23, 2006 - 9:44:00 PM


Name: Marcello Marchitto
Jobs: DJ, Remixer, Producer, Label Chef
Music Style: Club, Vocal, Latin, French & Ibiza House
DJ since:  October 1991



Marcello was born 1976 in Soest as Half-Italian Boy and had been into instrumental music since he was a child. Rather, since Miami Vice. One night in 1991 he ends up in a Techno club. It’s easy to guess – since then he is magnetised by the electronic beat. It takes two more years and Marcello Marchitto buys his first pair of Technics.

Nothing special, so far. During the following years Marcello Marchitto makes his way from the guy involved in his local scene to a recognised part of the international House scene. In the time between 1991 and 1996 he could plays in difference Clubs, Radio-Stations and Events in Middle and North Germany. He changes to House-Music after it enters in the middle of the 90´s in Germany and UK. He saw in this new style a future and success, because the girls and people love this rhythmic and melodic style that reminds on the best time of the 70´s.

1995 he organised his first Parties the legendaries “House Mill and House Church Nights”. In 1996 Marcello Marchitto  becomes support DJ of Boy George during his European club tour. In 1997 follows the opening of his first, own venue Luna Club withguests like Hardsequenzer or Timo Maas. There he celebrates his 20st Birthday. Marcello Marchitto continues his way with first steps in producing leading into his first release Ocean together with Mike Age in 1998. The founding of Chicaria Records follows with the huge success of the First Class E.P. becoming not only Ibiza’s summer anthem in 2002. With Chicaria was created a Label for club, vocal, tribal and electro house. www.chicaria.com

Since then Marcello Marchitto’s schedule is packed through the label work as well as himself playing gigs all around the globe like Dubai, Ibiza, Mallorca,  Spain, Italy, Ukraine, Germany etc. Further, Marcello Marchitto is the head behind the releases of Groovedust, Deepstarr or Funkinjection and various remix works for DJ 88 Keys, Superfunk and his label mates at Chicaria Records.

It is Marcello Marchitto’s sense for pragmatism that allows him to realise his colourful career. “I’m not aiming for aspects of art. To me it is important that the things fit together. All I want is the right groove when I play. I want my audience to have fun. It’s that simple but complicating in one time!” Seems like things can be that simple, sometimes.
