Graham Goldhas unveiled the tracklist for his weekly show Esta La Musica onScientific Sound Asia. Scientific Sound Asia operates as an Asian electronic musicradio station,DJ agency, promoter andmusic newsoutlet, connecting audiences across South East Asia and internationally.
The show takes its name from a tattoo Graham received on his right upper arm while DJing in Los Angeles in 1999. His wider international profile was built through weekly broadcasts on London’s Kiss 100 and the Peach club brand, both of which became central to his standing in UK club culture.
After leaving Kiss 100 and relocating to South East Asia, Graham used the tattooed phrase for Esta La Musica as a new outlet for Techno and House Music. The programme links his long radio background with the electronic music he plays through clubs, festivals and regional events.
Graham first gained strong local recognition through his decade-long residency at Gulliver’s Club in Mayfair, where he played six nights a week from 1980 to 1990. Before that, his early interest in Afrocentric music led him to co-found The Funky Road Show, a mobile disco active in West London during the early 1970s.
By the age of 18, Graham was already playing Black music five nights a week across London. His selections during that period drew from Reggae, Soul, Disco and Jazz Funk, giving him a wide musical foundation before his later move into electronic music.
During the 1980s, Graham worked across several London pirate radio stations before joining the Radio London Soul Night Out team. He later hosted a Saturday-night Soul programme on Capital FM, receiving the station’s Broadcaster of the Year award in 1985.
Graham was involved in the early development of Kiss FM London, where his weekly shows helped bring his work to a much wider audience. He spent eight consecutive years in the DJ Magazine Top 100 DJs poll and was also listed by Dash among its most popular DJs in the world of all time.
Graham continues to command an international following while performing across Asia and further afield. Esta La Musica presents House and Techno with promos from labels and artists across Deep House, Progressive House, Melodic House and Techno, Tech House, Deep Tech, Organic House and Techno.

Kiz Pattison’s Warehouse Feeling on Dear Deer shifts the episode towards Melodic House and Techno. Justrice then follows with Stallion on Infinite Depth, keeping the selection in a melodic and club-focused direction.
Highjacks bring Jaggernaut in the Sonic Union remix on Krafted Underground, opening a Progressive House passage. Fuenka’s Odyssey on JOOF then adds a Trance entry, bringing a deeper hypnotic tone into the middle section.
Micah Paul Lukasewich and Zoe Theodorou continue the Progressive House line with Endline in the Nick Lewis remix. Circle Of Life then adds Dominacija in the Deminicis Dalessandro remix on Sounds Of Earth, keeping the programme in progressive territory.
Timo Veranta and Henheimer’s Flat Earth on Fate Music and Zagitar’s Thurma on Truesounds extend the Progressive House run. Juan Elvadin then closes that section with Kraken on Manual, keeping the late-middle passage in the same lane.
Danny Howells’ Mallets on 8bit brings the set back to Melodic House and Techno. Marco Keine follows with Sardinia in the CASSIMM remix on Dolcevita, shifting the rhythm towards Tech House.
