Dear fanatics, with great excitement and inspiration we are proud to present to you a true diamond of oldschool Goa Trance – an undisputed festival headliner from UK.
Producer Marcello Bonifacii will be performing a live set, playing tracks from 3 of his musical projects – Encens, Ominus and Aeternum.
Since emerging from the Brighton party scene in the mid-90’s, Marcello has become a leading figure in the international underground goa & psychedelic trance scene.
His first goa project Encens was a collaboration with DJ Dara Lee, who was also the label manager and founder of Koyote Records. Between 1995 to 1998, they released numerous tracks on 12” vinyl including legendary compositions such as ‘Spiritual Transgression’, ‘Psychedelic Sun’ and the very first release on Koyote records ‘Venus Zen’.
In 1996 Dara Lee introduced Marcello to Miranda Silvergren who was also releasing material on Koyote at the time. The three of them went on to produce their debut (and perhaps best known) single ‘Acid Tester’ in 1996 and followed up with the eponymously titled album ‘Ominus’ in 1997.
Aeternum is Marcello’s solo project with several vinyl releases including the classic track Ensanity (1997). Aeternum also appeared on various CD compilations including tracks such as ‘Sunstorm’ & ‘Highways of Light’ on the well known Destination Goa series.
In the last few years, Marcello has been remastering & remixing many of his classic tracks and has emerged from the studio for one or two rare live appearances, most recently in Romania at Apsara Festival. We also had a pleasure to experience his first time ever performance in Serbia, on December 2018 in Belgrade, organized by Ages of Love.
You can expect a special and unique performance, which will take you on a journey through Marcello Bonifacii’s musical opus.
