Carlo Gambino
Midnight Social Recordings (UK) & Amongst Others (UK)
One half of ‘Low Tone’ with Al Bradley
Carlo Gambino should need no introduction to this industry we all love, he has been DJ’ing since the 90’s and has played at many of the world’s best loved dance floors including ‘Back to Basics’ (Leeds), ‘Sankeys’ (Manchester), ‘Space’ (Ibiza), ‘Culture Box’ (Copenhagen), ‘Pix Club’ (Switzerland), ‘Decadence’ (Paris), ‘Verboten’ (NYC), ‘Sash’ (Sydney).
Collecting Vinyl from the age of 11, Carlo was 16 when his love of all things ‘House’ began. It became very clear from an early age that music would play a major role in Carlo’s life; for over 35 years his father has worked in the music industry, touring with artists such as Michael Jackson, Prince, Madonna and Black Sabbath, so it came as no surprise that he was destined to follow a similar path.
Carlo’s DJ career spans well over 2 decades with his production career now well into double figures gaining support from many A-listers including Jamie Jones, Moodymanc, Justin Harris, PBR Streetgang, Adam Shelton, Inland Knights to name but a few. Carlo’s first major release was in 2010 after getting the break he needed signing a 3 track EP for the legendary ‘3am Recordings’.
Since that first signing for the label, Carlo has gone onto release several more tracks for 3am including the labels 50th anniversary release. Several strong releases have followed since the start of 2010, which have led to a rapid increase in demand for Carlo’s original and remix work globally. With releases on heavyweight labels such as Cinthie’s ‘We_R_House’, Franck Roger’s ‘Real Tone’, Jamie Jone’s ‘Hot Waves’ plus Apollo Music, Euphoria Records, Sense Traxx. With forthcoming releases on ‘Bare Bones’, ‘Discotech’, ‘Echo’s Of Glory’, ‘One Of 4’, ‘Floorpiece’, ‘Snatch’, EWax, ‘Vibe Material’ and ‘Audio Analysts’ all in the first half of 2022.
It was in 2011 that Carlo launched his very own label, ‘Midnight Social Recordings’. With Artists such as Al Bradley, Adam Collins, Dudley Strangeways, Diego Krause, Jay Tripwire to name but a few have already released on the label. The label is still going from strength to strength and is still gaining recognition in all the right places with the label now in its 10th year and almost at 80 releases.
In 2016, Carlo had been one of Audiojack’s residents in Ibiza for their Sunday Social party at Veto. To round off that magical season in Ibiza, Carlo also held a series of label parties at the legendary Space for Carl Cox. These four exclusive dates ran throughout the summer taking various artists off the label, hosting the premier Etage Terrace all night long. This also happened to be the very last year for Space and Carl Cox as we all know which made the summer even more special.
Carlo has also formed a house partnership under the name of ‘Low Tone’ with long term friend Al Bradley of 3am Recordings. Carlo Gambino and Al Bradley are two of the gems in UK’s electronic crown, steadily honing their reputations as two of the most reliable and consistent DJ/producers. Carlo and Al have been in amongst the scene for over 25 years playing around the UK, Europe and beyond and between them, the guys have notched up an impressive gig list across the years.
