Hailing from Orlando, Florida, Chris Marchese heads up this one man production/engineering operation and has been adding his touch and definitive style to countless projects for the past 18 years. Inspired by the violin, which he started playing at age the of 9, Chris continued to further his music interest with the piano, and then onto keyboards right about the time the New Wave era had exploded in the music industry. His first opportunity arose in 1990, to produce and release his first piece of vinyl entitled “Reference to a Funky Dream" with the B-Side named, "Check It.” Hooked on vinyl, he continued on writing/producing 2 of Florida's CLASSIC dance tracks: AGH-YUMMY & Force of Habit - Feelings of Disbelief.
Being a musician, Chris still felt that making and playing records was just not enough. He then put together a live show under the name “Force of Habit.” Using samplers, analog synths, and a lot of FX pedals, Chris played live shows for years, ranging from electro to progressive house. He stopped performing under the name, ”Force of Habit,” in 2001, in order to organize an entirely new live act under the name, “DISCOSYNTHETIQUE.” Chris also DJ's under his real name and currently releasing new vinyl/mp3s, produces for a variety of labels, and holds a residency on www.NUBREAKS.com every Friday night from 7-9 Eastern time playing the latest in Breaks and Heavy Electronics.
