Bio
Marvin & Guy connect disco and Italo traditions with the weight and momentum of contemporary club music. The Italy-based duo of Alessandro Parlatore and Marcello Giordani began with edits made for their DJ sets, then expanded into original productions for Hivern Discs, Correspondant, Life and Death and Permanent Vacation. Their partnership grew out of the Apartment parties they organised in Parma, where disco, boogie and soul provided a common language despite their different musical backgrounds. Rock guitars, film soundtracks and pop-like arrangements subsequently became part of their records: Dance Ability combines a disco rhythm with rock bass, guitar and trance-related elements, while Fire! Fire! draws on their shared enthusiasm for cinema. Their sets remain deliberately spontaneous, with each member selecting music separately before meeting in the booth. Beyond their own releases and remixes, their Life of Marvin project with DJ Tennis revisits Italian electronic music from the early 1990s.
