Graham Gold returns with another edition of Esta La Musica on Scientific Sound Asia. The platform operates as an Asian electronic music radio station, DJ agency and promoter, while also publishing electronic music news and connecting underground electronic music audiences across Asia and internationally.
With a career spanning more than four decades, Graham Gold remains one of the most established names in electronic music broadcasting and club culture. From his formative years on London pirate radio and Capital FM through to his influential era at Kiss 100, his journey reflects a deep and long-standing commitment to progressive electronic music and underground dance culture worldwide.
His period at Kiss 100 helped shape the sound and direction of progressive house and trance radio throughout the 1990s and early 2000s, while the legendary Peach club nights placed him at the centre of London’s underground electronic movement. Peach continues holding a respected legacy within club culture, with reunion events in London and Ibiza reconnecting longtime followers with the melodic and progressive sounds associated with the brand.
Before gaining international recognition, Graham built his reputation across London nightlife through residencies including Gulliver’s Club in Mayfair and regular appearances on pirate radio stations throughout the capital. These early experiences exposed him to soul, disco, reggae, jazz-funk and emerging electronic sounds, influences that still shape the broad musical identity present in both his DJ sets and productions today.

Now based in Thailand, Graham remains closely connected to Southeast Asia’s underground electronic music scene with regular appearances across Koh Phangan, Phuket, Pattaya and Koh Samui. Whether performing at beach gatherings, underground club nights or festival events, he continues maintaining strong ties with regional dancefloor culture while reaching global audiences through radio and online platforms.
During this period, Graham’s studio work increasingly focuses on melodic and progressive underground club music. The Lost City on Patent Skillz continues drawing attention through rolling basslines, layered synth work and melodic house structures that balance atmosphere with dancefloor energy. Remixes from Tomy Wahl and DJ Lion & Just Julien add darker and more groove-oriented interpretations while preserving the emotional tone of the original production.
Alongside this release, productions on Ballroom Records, including Uncanny Parallels, Postponed and Manipulation with Jourdan Bordes, continue highlighting his movement towards hypnotic melodic arrangements and refined progressive club sounds. These tracks combine controlled pacing with modern melodic house and techno influences while maintaining a strong underground identity and dancefloor focus.
At the same time, Graham continues to maintain a connection to the uplifting trance sound that helped establish his global reputation. Releases such as Glorified, Living In The Now and the Manuel Le Saux remix of Moving On combine euphoric melodic elements with contemporary production techniques, reflecting the wide musical spectrum that still defines his output across multiple electronic genres.
Through Esta La Musica, Graham Gold continues presenting carefully curated journeys across Deep House, Progressive House, Melodic House & Techno, Tech House and Trance. Each broadcast reflects decades of experience while remaining closely connected to the evolving direction of contemporary underground electronic music culture.
Grahm Gold's first selection, Guy Mantzur, opens the session with My Wild Flower, immediately establishing a melodic house and techno atmosphere before Bragken alongside Catmoonk continue the flowing direction through Sun Is Down in the Two Are Extended remix. Coldplay’s Clocks in the Amir Telem remix shifts the mix toward Progressive House with layered melodic textures and deeper rhythmic progression.
Robert Pislaru and Andres Shockwave strip the groove back through Electrode and Art Of Chill, moving the session firmly into Minimal and Deep Tech territory. Sally C restores a warmer House groove with Let’s Get This, balancing rolling percussion with classic underground club energy.
Kaos Kid’s Alright introduces a tighter Tech House rhythm before River Red’s Cano Cristales returns the mix toward Progressive House. Joseph Edmund follows with Baewatch, maintaining a smooth House atmosphere through groove-led percussion and late-night club textures.
The final section leans deeper once again through Juliche Hernandez’s Bread And Break and Archie Hamilton’s Journey To Juno, both driven by stripped-back Minimal and Deep Tech rhythms. Dauwd’s Idris introduces an Indie Dance groove before Mele closes the session with Groove La Afrika, ending the episode with Afro House percussion and energetic underground club rhythms.
