Smokingroove, originally comprising of brothers Monsafe & Marko, cut their teeth on the mid 90s London underground pirate radio scene at legendary stations including Freek FM, Unknown, House FM and quickly built a name for themselves on dancefloors across the city with their own brand of bumping Chicago-fused house music. As two wise chemically-enhanced men once said, The brothers gonna work it out and its an adage that the two took to heart as they became one of the most in-demand production and DJ duos around. With over 160 releases over the last two decades, theyve proven their ability to maintain a position in the international DJ scene. When Marko moved to Dubai in 2007, Monsafe carried on playing across Europe while Marko solidified a new base in the Middle East with the launch of a then-new 5000 capacity venue that could be seen from Space named Nasimi beach at the Atlantis hotel on the Palm. Not only did they turn a once unremarkable patch of sand into a consistently sold-out clubbing location thanks to a sound-storm of beats and bass, they were instrumental in musically setting up all the 16,000 capacity Sandance events and played alongside (and often closed for) Faithless, Florence & the machine, Jamiroquai, David Guetta, Avicii, Fatboy Slim, Chic, Frankie Knuckles, Steve Lawler, Roger Sanchez, Derrick Carter, Armand Van-Helden, Basement Jaxx and many, many more. Smokingroove have since won just about every award in the region and have become a name representing great music on a global scale. Alongside that, Smokingroove opened at the recent 'Unite with Tomorrowland', had multiple appearances at Creamfields, toured Europe and have built up a long-standing reputation for great underground music. In 2018 Smokingroove became the Music Curator for the popular global brand, W Hotel with a new location on Palm Jumeirah in Dubai. The weekly radio show is currently syndicated to over 40 radio stations around the world with a weekly listenership in over 60 countrie
