Graham Gold presented another edition of Esta La Musica on Scientific Sound Asia. Scientific Sound Asia operates as an Asian electronic music radio station, DJ agency, promoter and music news outlet, connecting audiences across Ho Chi Minh City, Hanoi, Vietnam, South East Asia and internationally.
The programme takes its name from a tattoo Gold received on his arm after DJing in Los Angeles in 1999. After leaving Kiss 100 and relocating to South East Asia, he used the phrase for Esta La Musica as a new outlet for his club-focused electronic selections.
Gold built an international profile through his Kiss 100 broadcasts and the Peach club nights in London. Those platforms brought his sound to a wide audience and helped establish Peach as one of the best-known club brands in the capital.
He appeared in DJ Magazine’s Top 100 DJs poll for eight years, including five years in the Top 40 and two placements at number 22. That recognition followed a period when his radio work, club events and international bookings placed him among the most visible British DJs of his generation.
His career has taken him to more than 150 cities across 43 countries. Festival and club appearances have included Glastonbury, Homelands, Gatecrasher, God’s Kitchen, Passion, Slinky, Impulz, Earthdance, W.E.M.F., Summadayze and Street Parade in Zurich.
Gold later moved to Koh Phangan, Thailand, where he became active in the island’s House Music scene. His appearances there have included parties and venues such as Jungle Experience, Backyard, Pirates Bar, Oasis, La Vida Loco and Heaven & Earth.
He has also been associated with Tommy Resort during Full Moon periods and with Golden Vibes at KU CLUB alongside Venus Vibes. His Thai activity sits alongside wider Asian bookings and international appearances linked to his long-running career.
Although he first became internationally known through Trance, Gold’s later work has placed strong emphasis on House and Techno. Esta La Musica gives him a radio setting for Deep House, Progressive House, Melodic House and Techno, Tech House, Deep Tech, Organic House and Techno.
His compilation releases have sold more than 700,000 copies and received six Gold and four Silver BPI certifications. Those releases added a significant recorded-music dimension to a career rooted in radio, clubs and international DJ performance.
Further updates, mixes and releases can be followed through his Facebook, Instagram, Mixcloud, SoundCloud, Beatport and Resident Advisor. Esta La Musica presents his electronic music direction while linking his South East Asian base with a long history in UK radio, club culture and global touring.Techno.

Daniel Blackman’s Tales Of Persia on RUKUS adds another Melodic House and Techno entry before SunAR introduces Afro House with Ashram. Mihai Popoviciu then moves the episode into Minimal Tech with Understand on Poker Flat.
Monolink’s Return To Oz appears in the ARTBAT remix on Embassy One, returning the set to Melodic House and Techno. John Digweed and Nick Muir then bring Satellite in the Oxia remix on Bedrock, linking the middle section to Progressive House and Techno.
Enrico Sangiuliano’s Hidden T on Drumcode shifts the programme towards Peak Time Techno. Russell (IE) then adds The Wager on RUKUS, bringing the selection back to Melodic House and Techno before Ilija Djokovic’s Atom on Filth On Acid returns to Peak Time Techno.
Nic Fanciulli’s Understand on Rekids gives the late section a Tech House and Techno edge. Alan Fitzpatrick and CamelPhat follow with Kona on We Are The Brave, keeping the closing stretch in Peak Time Techno territory.
Cari Lekebusch closes Esta La Musica 306 with Mind Dive on H-Productions. The final track keeps the focus on Techno after a set that moves from melodic and progressive material into a firmer closing section.
