Feb 9 Marco Peruzzi

Marco Peruzzi began his career in music back in 1987 at Duck Café, a legendary rock club in the South of France. He later became a resident dj at the Factory Club in Marseille mixing Detroit techno, house and rock and then at the Pop Art Club, where he began a rave collaboration with DJ Jack de Marseille and DJ Sonic. In 92 he began a 4 year residency at Le Perroquet Bleu where he became heavily influenced by Jazz, Soul, Disco and Funk.

Between 97 and 04 he took residencies all over Europe until he decided to move to NY where he has been playing regularly at venues such as Pink Elephant, Cain, the Groovedeck at B.E.D, and where he also made guest appearances at Cielo and Aer Lounge. He is currently the resident dj and music director at Pink Elephant NYC where he mixes mostly funky vocal house for people who club to dance and is also a music consultant for many restaurants and stores.
