In 2016, Remark presents Pet Shop Boys: Encomium 1986–2016 was released to celebrate 30 years of Pet Shop Boys. Recorded live in Edinburgh for the event Pet Shop Boys Symposium, the continuous DJ mix featured more than three hours of remixed hits spanning every album across their multi-decade career. Whilst many notable tracks were included, some significant favourites were inevitably missed. So in 2018 the duo’s remarkable catalogue was revisited and Encomium II debuted — packed with additional hits, rarities, remixes, and collaborations. Encomium I and II remain among the some of the most-listened-to mixes ever featured on Remark’s Soundcloud and The Remarkable Podcast.
Fast forward to 2026 and we’re now celebrating 40 years of Pet Shop Boys’ contributions to music, art, pop, and the dance floor. Recently this most successful British pop duo of all time have been touring globally with their Dreamworld concert, and in April they’re performing an exclusive London event called Obscure, dedicated to rarities, exclusives, and B-sides. What better way to mark the occasion than releasing Remark presents Pet Shop Boys: Encomium III — featuring even more hits, remixed deep cuts, b-sides, and material from the years since the previous Encomium releases. This four-hour remarkable journey explores iconic tracks, obscure mixes, and a deep dive into the duo’s expansive four-decade catalogue. For completeness, be sure to revisit Remark presents Pet Shop Boys: Encomium I and II, and read more about Remark’s relentless, passionate fandom at remarkcentral.info/psb.

Originally released in autumn 2001 — right after the September 11th attacks on the United States and the subsequent invasion of Afghanistan — Remark Transmission was my creative reaction to the war on terrorism and intense global tension of the time. The mix concluded with a haunting track called “Outgoing Transmission (We Break Easy)” that sampled worrying news clips from those uncertain times.
Given the fascist hellscape we’re all living through now, I was inspired to revisit Transmission 25 years later and completely re-record and update the mix with samples from the current relentless news cycle we’re all suffering through daily. The rest of the mix is a driving, energetic, forceful progressive journey that channels intense emotion into euphoric release. Music is and continues to be my therapy and creation is the only way to combat destruction.
The 2001 version of Transmission was never uploaded to the Remarkable Podcast — in fact, it’s the only official Remark mix that’s missing from the archive. As part of the celebrations this year marking 20 years of the Remarkable Podcast, I’m pleased to announce that this remastered version of Transmission now joins the series.

Over two years in the making, Remark Arkitech finally sees the light of day. A layered and driving dance floor odyssey, it charts the full spectrum of progressive house — weaving together shimmering gems of the genre that pulsate with late-night energy. There are moments when a vocal track will lift you up from the depths…only to plunge you again into the depths of rhythmic sound. Arktiech resonates with you during the entire aural adventure, and the meticulously curated, tectonic sonic structure lingers long after its nearly five-hour journey ends.
In April 2025, I celebrated 5 years of Remark Sunday Sessions. Ever since the UK's first lockdown in March 2020, I've been inspired to broadcast my spectrum of sound to fans new and old around the globe. Join me in commemorating these 5 incredible years of creativity, connection, and music. The trilogy showcases 5 years of remarkable tunes from my three favourite genres: progressive, organic/melodic house, and uplifting big room disco/pop.

In 2021 and 2022, two Remark mixes were released to cope with years of lockdown: Annoconfinamento I and II were the creative culmination of navigating the challenges of the pandemic. These curated, intertwined, and intelligent progressive house mixes encapsulated an artistic response to an uncertain world.
As we close 2024, another remarkable response is required. The world continues to collapse — relentless wars, the climate catastrophe, unpredictable AI, and the end of America as state capture takes hold and a dictator dismantles democracy. Reacting to this year of disasters, a creation was born: Annodisastro. Although in the same euphonious realm as its predecessors, Annodisastro elevates the intensity to new heights. This progressive house journey inspires one to escape this chaotic world and fly free — surrounded by emotions, power, and layers of hope that only music can bring.
The organic house music journey that started with the previous remarkable mix Dopo’ore is even further realised with this autumnal release, Sunstar. This mix takes emotion in some surprisingly positive directions, with lush layers and rhythms that paint an optimistic soundscape. Remark’s Sunstar explores the blurred hopeful boundaries of sunset to starlight to sunrise.
Five hours of meticulously curated tracks form a unified aural experience that can be enjoyed anytime of day. Pulsing bass lines, whispering high-hats, shades of colourful sound, and the joy of the occasional uplifting vocal mixed with the depth of a sexy instrumental — the Sunstar vibe certainly suits all flavours of the melodic house music spectrum.
Remark Dopo’ore was inspired by those magical after-hours moments. The golden glow of sunsets, the promising horizon of sunrises, the buzz of flowing cocktails after the long workday concludes, or the warmth you feel in the comfort of connected friends at an afterparty.
The mix hints at creative elements from 2022’s Annoconfinomento II, yet with less progressive flare. Dopo’ore brings together a collection of organic house tracks that mesh medleys and voluptuous vibes that flow over you and through you, feeding your aural desires.
A perfect accompaniment to any chilled moment, Remark Dopo’ore provides a soundtrack to all of your magic hours — no matter what time of day or where they occur.
In January 2021 I livestreamed a moody, minimal mix called “The Comedown”, and ever since I’ve been inspired to eventually make a full uninhibited soundscape that explored that deep, atmospheric sound fully. “Crossover” was borne out of this desire. Based upon another livestream from early 2023, “Crossover” reworks and remasters that original vision by layering even more tracks and sonic sensations. The opening preamble, spoken by my music goddess Tori Amos, acknowledges how we are so fortunate to be part of the universe’s infinite creativity. These words set the stage for the 3+ hour journey that wanders through atmospheres and slowly saunters through depth, tech, and dub. So put the headphones on, dive deep, and lose yourself in the boundless and endless creativity of the universe.
SURPRISE! 🏳️🌈 The Remarkable mix of the summer has arrived and it propels pride and unity to the forefront. This celebration of vocal house is filled with tracks that uplift, connect, and inspire joy — with that unmistakable euphoria of forever being on the dance floor. Curated for peak club hours, this mix is guaranteed to entertain the biggest of parties. There are new interpretations of tracks from the 70’s and 80’s intermingled with some of this year’s biggest pride anthems. The acronymic title ROYGBIV represents the rainbow (red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet) which glorifies the feeling of pride as LGBTQ+ communities continue to be repressed and attacked globally. So turn up this latest Remark mix to inject positivity and hope into this judgmental and divisive world.
There are so many signals vying for our attention during these tumultuous times. The relentless noise signals coming from all of the digital signals. The media divides with virtue signals whilst others call out distress signals. And everything points to alarming signals. Through the darkness and storms, I turn to my constant: getting lost in audio signals. It is within these armored musical frequencies that I find my foundation, my anchor. So soar through this carefully crafted, meticulously curated, 4+ hour progressive journey with me into sonic salvation.
Over a year in the making. Remark presents Annoconfinamento II. The highly anticipated sequel to part one released in the spring of 2021. Originally inspired by surviving the isolation in endless lockdowns, this mix continues the theme of combatting ideological confinement through creativity in a chaotic, foreboding world: a journey of deep, melodic, intelligent house that fuses worldly influences, cultural chants, and progressive tech into a seamless organic union. If you listen to the end, which of course I suggest you do, you’ll fully understand my sonic intentions which is best represented in the classic dialogue between Frodo and Gandalf. Frodo says, “I wish it need not have happened in my time.” Gandalf responds, “And so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us.”
As another surreal and tumultuous year comes to a close, it’s as important as ever that we put positive energy into the universe. I’ve always done this through music which continues to be my guiding light through these crazy times. On New Year’s Eve 2021, I rang in the new year again behind the decks — broadcasting a 5-hour livestream on Twitch and Mixcloud. The uplifting performance was titled Discotonic, and as a gift to all of my followers and listeners, I dropped TWO mixes at midnight to celebrate life in 2022! Discotonic + Tonicdisco are two equally matched remarkable mixes fueled with flashback retrodisco energy. Featuring reinterpretations of epic club classics from the 70s and 80s, these dual mixes also pepper in plenty of new grooves too. What better way to get 2022 started than with uplifting vocals, pouncing pianos, and hands-in-the-air vibes? Thanks for being part of the Remarkable experience. Let’s hope for positive energy in the New Year...

Lightwave has an interesting backstory. It was originally conceived in November 2020 with the opening track always intended to be the first song of the mix. Over time, several songs danced in and out of the playlist, but the mood of the mix has always been on the same intense trajectory. In the spring of 2021, I released the first part of my two part opus called Annoconfinamento. I expected the original Lightwave project to be part two of the Annoconfinamento soundscape, but as I continued to tinker with and refine it, Lightwave evolved into its own distinct aural journey. This path took me much further than expected — so far, in fact, that Lightwave is now the longest mix I’ve ever curated...pushing 5 hours of music. It’s an interplay of moody new progressive tracks, intermingled with some emotional classics and a few reinterpretations of monster late night dance floor grooves. So get ready to board this serious, menacing, progressive rocket that will transport you into new orbits. Come ride the Lightwave with me and feel how far it goes.
To cope with this surreal and unprecedented past year, I turned to music to ease my mind and soothe my soul. I invested positive energy into my DJ livestreams, which debuted in April 2020 and continue to this day. I’ve been able to connect with so many friends and fans, both new and old, all over the world, through our passion for great music. Last summer, that inspiration led to a 2-part music mix called #stayhouse to bring light into our darkest days. This spring, I am doing the same but with a different style and intention. This 2-part series is called “Annoconfinamento” (which means “Lockdown Year” in Italian) and brings a collection of intense, intelligent, and deep yet driving progressive energy together for a magnificent immersion in unmistakable, remarkable sound. Part I eases you into the groove with electro bubbling basslines and synths, and slowly builds with intention and intensity. Part II, to be released soon, boldly opens with one of my favourite songs from 2020, and the driving energy and life-giving forces continue throughout the audio adventure. Arguably one of the most perfectly programmed and well-curated Remark mixes of all time, I hope you enjoy parts I and II of this Annoconfinamento aural journey…
Wow what a f*cking year. A struggle, a challenge, a detriment. As I’ve said many times, during such troubled moments I turn to music — and this year warrants that escape more than any other. To bring hope and light to the darkness, I present Couleurs: the definitive final remarkable mix of 2020. Couleurs represents the pinnacle of my current sonic definition and I couldn’t be more proud of the results. Featuring all new music from this year and several updated reinterpretations of well-known Remark classics, this mix demonstrates the diverse colour palette of my ever-evolving yet true-to-form sound. The journey is equally inspired by the extraordinary livestreams I’ve hosted this year during lockdown. The celebrated Remark Sunday Sessions, broadcasting fortnightly on twitch.tv/remarkentral at 6 PM UK time, have been a consistent creative escape to a shared virtual global dance floor. So turn it up and rejoice in the Remarkable spectrum of sound. This is Couleurs.
