Andy Piacentini

Half disco 7 inch and half caffe' corretto, when it comes to leftfield disco sets , golden era deep house and killer programming Andy knows his onions. A child hood spent listening to Talking Heads, proper 80s UK Indy-pop blended somewhat chaotically with a healthy dose of Mediterranean sunshine via the sounds of Adriano Celentano and Pino Daniele, Andy’s formative years covered wide musical bases.

Misspent teen years in the early 90s, and an insatiable vinyl addiction for underground hip hop, NY house and UK rave records over this period matured into a love of underground disco funk in the late 90s and a vast collection of disco records, leading to present day dj sets which are , without fail, an eclectic selection of quality underground dance music and wildly varying tempos. Andy has shared billing with Todd Terje, Greg Wilson, Andy Smith, Phil Mison, The Revenge, Mark E and Balearic Mike and Djed many times at long running disco night Melting Pot in his current home Glasgow. He has held residencies in Glasgow and London and in these locked-down times can be found on his own show on Radio Magnetic ‘run4cover’ (www.mixcloud.com/radio-magnetic).
