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 music news and connecting underground electronic music audiences across Asia and internationally.
With a career spanning more than four decades, Graham Gold is one of the most established names in electronic music broadcasting and club culture. His background runs from London pirate radio and Capital FM through to Kiss 100, where he became closely associated with Progressive House, Trance and underground dance music.
During his time at Kiss 100, Graham helped shape the sound of Progressive House and Trance radio throughout the 1990s and early 2000s. His Peach club nights also placed him at the centre of London’s club scene, with later reunion events in London and Ibiza keeping the brand connected to its long-standing audience.
Before gaining wider recognition, Graham built his reputation across London nightlife through residencies including Gulliver’s Club in Mayfair and regular appearances on pirate radio stations across the capital. Those early years exposed him to Soul, Disco, Reggae, Jazz-Funk and emerging electronic sounds, influences that still appear across his DJ sets and studio work.

Now based in Thailand, Graham is closely connected to South East Asia’s underground electronic music scene. His appearances across Koh Phangan, Phuket, Pattaya and Koh Samui link beach gatherings, club nights and festival settings with the international audience he reaches through radio and online platforms.
His mixes and radio archive can be followed through Mixcloud, while updates are available through Facebook and Instagram. Further music and DJ activity can also be found through his SoundCloud and Resident Advisor profiles.
Graham’s recent studio work has leaned into melodic and progressive underground club music. The Lost City on Patent Skillz brings together rolling basslines, detailed synth layers and melodic house structures, with remixes by Tomy Wahl and DJ Lion & Just Julien adding darker, groove-focused versions.
His production catalogue on Beatport also includes Ballroom Records releases such as Uncanny Parallels, Postponed and Manipulation with Jourdan Bordes. These tracks place hypnotic melodic arrangements alongside Progressive House, Melodic House and Techno influences while keeping a clear underground club focus.
At the same time, Graham stays connected to the uplifting Trance sound that helped build his international profile. Tracks such as Glorified, Living In The Now and the Manuel Le Saux remix of Moving On show another side of his catalogue, combining euphoric melodic ideas with modern production.
Through Esta La Musica, Graham Gold presents Deep House, Progressive House, Melodic House and Techno, Tech House and Trance with the experience of a long-running broadcaster and club DJ. Each edition connects his musical history with current underground electronic music, giving the show a broad but focused identity.
DJ Graham Gold presents Esta La Musica 401 with a selection moving through Progressive House, Melodic House and Techno, Deep House, House, Electronica and Techno. Valer Den Bit opens with Lira on Depth, placing the episode inside Melodic House and Techno through the label’s melodic catalogue context.
Paul Hamilton and DJ Ruby follow with Lost In Space on Freegrant, a release described by the label as progressive house. Mpathy then brings Whispers into the sequence through Steyoyoke, linking the early section to the label’s ethereal and melodic techno identity.
Just'n Toko’s Sweet Soga introduces Minimal Tech through its Luthier listing, adding a reduced groove before Nick Dare shifts into Deep House. Boom Box appears in the Markus Homm remix, giving the set a warmer and more rounded club passage.
Sam Dexter, Drive7 and Lee Wilson continue the Deep House direction with Roll Up on Glasgow Underground. Roog then keeps the same label in focus with Move On Up, moving into House Music through a confirmed Beatport listing.
Audioglider’s Sutures in the Matt Black remix introduces Electronica, adding a broken and more textural electronic turn. Lena Storm then restores the Progressive House line with Road To Ashur on Skytop.
Tryger’s Crystal Haze keeps the episode inside Progressive House, supported by the artist’s own melodic, progressive and organic profile. Guy J follows with Modulator on Lost & Found, giving the set one of its clearest progressive anchors.
Soul Button’s Incendiary returns the programme to Melodic House and Techno through Steyoyoke’s ethereal techno identity. Slavlotski then brings The Shockwave on JOOF, adding a more intense Progressive House passage near the close.
Yamaraj closes Esta La Musica 401 with Primal Anomaly on Yamiok, ending the episode with a Techno selection after a route through melodic, deep and progressive club sounds. DJ Graham Gold’s show links Progressive House, Melodic House and Techno, Deep House and Electronica through a steady, late-night structure.
