Serge Santiago has recently become one of the hottest producers in the UK. Influenced by italo disco records, his unique electro sound has been projected to the forefront of the dance music scene and his colourful releases have become indispensable and coveted DJ tools.
Serge started off as a resident at Brighton based Stompa Phunk and subsequently released his first string of records on the Stompa Phunk imprint. Serge’s reputation steadily rose with each release and was cemented by his remix work under the pseudonym of Radioslave (remix team comprising of Serge and Matt Edwards). The prolific partnership resulted in the release of over 30 remixes in two years with highlights including reworks of Kylie Minogue, Fisherspooner and Tiga. The partnership came to an end in 2002 with the pair going their separate ways and Serge deciding to pursue a solo career.
Serge made a name for himself by then releasing a string of re-edits, each packed in a single colour sleeve. These releases were met by tremendous acclaim with DJ’s all around the world playing the tracks and asking for more. Always released in a low-key manner each of the coloured edits found itself in charts and DJ cases, receiving airtime and props, in less time than it takes to say Serge Santiago. By this time Serge decided to set up a new label to serve as an outlet for his own production as well as for potential talent. Arcobaleno Records was born and graced with a first release by Santiago himself entitled Atto D’Amore. Living up to all expectations, the track was a huge success, receiving acclaim on all fronts and causing an interest to be expressed by larger labels in a possible sign-over.
Cited by many as their favourite producer, Serge is now focusing on a follow up to Atto D’Amore while still releasing re-edits on a regular basis. Touring around the globe and remix work are also part of the agenda with another successful remix fresh out the pressing plant for the prestigious Giggolo record label. Most recently Serge has just put the finishing touches on the new Goldfrapp single, commissioned by the lady herself and already receiving regular plays on Radio 1.
