Enzo calved out a name out for himself in the fashion metropolis of the world, Milano,after he decided to leave his place of birth,the sundrenched Isle of Sicily where he had already been well known for his trail blazing Dj sets since the late 80's when it all began and he decided to take on the Fashion Metropolis of the world,Milano.After arriving in Milano he soon became very popular with his blend of Electronica/Nu-jazz/Broken-beats/Lounge/Groove/Dance and Funk in many fashion bars in Milano including the Exclusive Rialto Club,where he was the Resident Dj. With the assistance of Carmelo di Grande on keyboard’s including Rhodes and the Clavinet and with other Talented Italian musicians they brought together Ganesh’s debut album “Sopra la Soglia” released in 2001 through Scenario Records.The album was a mixture of Nu-jazz/Bossanova/Broken-Beat/Electronica and Funk, upon it’s release it put Ganesh firmly on the map as one of the few fine connoisseurs of Nu-jazz in the whole of Italy next to top artist’s like Nicola Conte from Italy. In the beginning of 2005 Ganesh hooked up with the House DJ,Peppe Pappalardo who also Dj’d in many fashion bar’s in Milano including The Yguana. While still working with Carmello di Grande they started work on their second album ”Club 21”. While working on “Club 21” Enzo became one of the Dj’s on the German radio station,Radio 42. His show the “the Blue Set” a mixture of Nu-Jazz/Electronica/Funk/RnB and other abstract beats brought him respect not only in Italy where he is loved but also abroad. After hearing a track on Radio 42(DE) by the South African born singer and the now The Only Official Black Voice of Ganesh,Marlon Cherry http://soundcloud.com/marloncherry a.k.a "Bigstick Marli-Marl" who was based in the U.K(Norwich) at the time, Ganesh made plans to get him involved with the group not only to lay down vocals on Club 21 but also to write and perform in English for them, which so took place and within some time they had completed Writing,Producing and Mixing the second album “Club 21” in their Milano Studio,with all the components of the band firmly in place.
