Graham Goldreleased the playlist for this edition of Esta La Musica onScientific Sound Asia. Scientific Sound Asia operates as an English-language Asian electronic musicradio station, promoter,DJ agencyandmusic newsoutlet.
Esta La Musica takes its name from the tattoo on Graham’s right arm, inked while he was DJing in Los Angeles in the late 1990s. After leaving Kiss 100 and relocating to Southeast Asia, he used the phrase for a Techno and House-focused radio show connected to his ongoing work as a DJ, producer and broadcaster.
Graham’s rise in electronic music was strongly linked to his weekly shows on London’s Kiss 100 and the Peach club brand. Those platforms helped bring his sound to a wider audience while connecting specialist radio, club culture and international DJ bookings.
His foundations as a DJ were laid in London, where he held a decade-long, six-nights-a-week residency at Gulliver’s Club in Mayfair. That role gave him extensive experience with club audiences before his later profile developed through Kiss FM, Peach and global touring.
His route into music began earlier, when his interest in Afrocentric music led him to co-found The Funky Road Show with a friend. By the early 1980s, Graham was playing Black music five nights a week across London, moving through Reggae, Soul, Disco and Jazz Funk.
That period also took him through several London pirate radio stations before he joined 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 became involved with Kiss FM from its early period, and his later Kiss 100 shows formed a major chapter in his public profile. He spent eight consecutive years in DJ Magazine’s Top 100 DJs poll and was also listed by Dash among its most popular DJs in the world of all time.
By the time Esta La Musica aired on Scientific Sound Asia, Graham was already established in Asia while retaining a strong international following. The weekly show featured Deep House, Progressive House, Melodic House and Techno, Tech House, Deep Tech, Organic House and Techno from labels, artists and promo networks.
This edition included his collaboration with Samotarev, Rising, presented alongside remixes by DJ Zombi and Maydan. The track placed Graham’s studio work directly inside the programme, linking Esta La Musica with his activity as both a selector and producer.
Graham continues to DJ internationally and stays active in the studio, with later work supported across melodic and deep house circles. Further updates, mixes and releases can be followed through hisFacebook,Instagram,Mixcloud,SoundCloud,BeatportandResident Advisor.
