Emerging on the dance music scene over a decade ago, Germany's Tino Piontek—better known as Purple Disco Machine—has carved a unique niche for himself in the realm of electronic dance music. An artist who refuses to be pigeonholed, Piontek has managed to remain on the cutting edge while dipping his toes into various sub-genres.







The Purple Disco Machine project first gained traction in 2009, rooted in a distinct Deep Funk-branded Disco House music style. Although the initial journey had its ups and downs, it was the 2013 release of "My House" that marked a turning point. The track topped the Beatport Deep House charts and became a defining moment that signaled his arrival in the mainstream.







Purple Disco Machine's star really started to soar in 2018. A particular highlight was his ingenious reworking of "Male Stripper" by Man 2 Man called "(Dished) Male Stripper", that utilized one of many riffs from the iconic Loleatta Holloway. This remix effortlessly blended the camp of the original 90s techno track with a pulsating, contemporary beat, winning acclaim in both underground and mainstream dance clubs. It even earned a spot on our "Top Dance Songs of the Year" series.

We've arrived at the final chapter of our monumental journey through the awe-inspiring career of Tony Moran, with the fourth and final volume of the Ultimate Tony Moran Legacy series. Each volume so far has been a lesson in Moran's unmatched versatility and influence, and this grand finale is no exception.







Opening with Judy Torres' "Hell No," we're reminded of Tony Moran's unique skill in balancing the line between underground cred and mainstream visibility. His treatment of Torres' energetic vocals is more than just a remix; it's an electrifying sonic experience that elevates the track to a club anthem.















But why stop there? Moran's mastery extends to pop princess Christina Aguilera with her hit "Ain't No Other Man." He has the magical ability to inject a new life into any track, turning it into an inescapable dance floor magnet.







Another hallmark of Moran's career has been his work with some of the industry's most soulful voices, exemplified by his remix of Rihanna's "Russian Roulette." His remix isn't just a twist on the original; it's a powerful reimagining that adds a pulsing, irresistible beat, transforming it into a bona fide dance-floor classic.







If ever there was a tune to light up the night, it's Erin Hamilton's "The Flame 2008." In Moran's capable hands,

Welcome back to the third volume of our Ultimate Tony Moran Legacy series, where we delve even further into the extraordinary oeuvre of Tony Moran. With each set, it becomes abundantly clear that Moran isn't just a one-hit-wonder; he's an industry titan whose flair for remixing and production has left an indelible mark on dance music.







Moran's breadth of work is impressive, to say the least. Whether contributing tracks for his own "Event" compilations or lending his Midas touch to other artists, he's accumulated an astonishing number of chart-topping songs—many reaching the zenith of the Dance Club charts, while others have conquered various other charts, including the illustrious Hot 100.







Tony Moran is more than just a studio genius; he's a stage phenomenon. Over the years, his live performances have gained almost mythical status, drawing packed houses worldwide. In many ways, he's paved the way for the next generation of DJ-producer-entertainers like Calvin Harris, David Guetta, Skrillex, and Avicii, who've transitioned their talents from the studio to colossal live shows.

As Tony Moran marched into the 21st century, his artistic brilliance only intensified, shining even more luminously than before. Moran has skillfully remixed a bevy of the era's most resplendent tunes, crafting a discography that reads like an exclusive guest list to our own Diva Hall of Fame. The need to enumerate these names is superfluous—they're all here, captured in the undulating grooves of his masterful remixes.







Rather than segmenting Moran's prolific output over the past two decades, this volume opts for a rich blend, offering fans a seamless tapestry that spans 22 illustrious years. His career, far from waning, shows every sign of thriving, still pulsating with new energy.







Let's talk about some songs that have been immortalized by Moran's magic touch. Take Oceana's "Body Rock" for example—a track that already has its merits but has been elevated to a whole new level under his skilled hands. Moran’s mix introduces an electrifying charge that makes the dance floor virtually irresistible. Or consider his reimagining of Deborah Cox's "Easy as Life," where Moran unravels the very fabric of the song and reweaves it with threads of auditory gold. The result? An anthem that beckons, ignites, and resonates in the soul.







Rihanna's "Unfaithful" carries the emotional weight of its lyrics, but Moran adds an entirely new layer of complexity...

Revered DJ, producer, and remixer Tony Moran has been a formidable force in the dance music universe for over 30 years. With an illustrious career that boasts two Billboard Hot Dance Club Play chart-toppers in 2007 alone—"Walk Away" featuring Kristine W and "Keep Your Body Working" featuring Martha Wash—Moran is no stranger to the pinnacle of success. To date, he's scored a staggering seven U.S. Billboard Dance Club Songs number-one hits, punctuated by four chart dominators in the years 2016 and 2017.







Don't mistake him as just another remix producer; Moran is the man behind iconic reimaginings of tunes from music royalty like Janet Jackson, Madonna, George Michael, and Mariah Carey, just to name a few. In the '90s, when luminaries like David Morales, Junior Vasquez, or Hex Hector were otherwise engaged, Moran was the go-to genius.

At long last, we've arrived at the grand finale of our tribute to the house music maestro, Ralphi Rosario. Volume 3 of this Legacy series is a kaleidoscopic journey through his remarkable catalog, blending the commercial with the underground in a way that only Rosario can.







When you think of Ralphi Rosario, it's hard not to jump straight to chart-toppers like Lady Gaga & Ariana Grande's "Rain On Me" or the Black Eyed Peas' "RITMO"—both remixed by Rosario and rapturously received over the past year. But, Rosario's influence stretches far beyond these blockbuster hits.







Take, for example, his remix of Cher's "Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! (A Man After Midnight)," a splashy and effervescent tune that turns every dance floor into a vibrant spectacle. It's a refreshing testament to Rosario's genius: knowing just what a track needs to transform from good to iconic.







Rosario's scope isn't just confined to the latest hits. Remember Barry Manilow's "Copacabana 2005"? Rosario's reimagining breathed new life into this classic, taking us on a sonic vacation to that mythical club where "music and passion were always in fashion."







The collaboration between Rosabel and Jennifer Holliday on "And I'm Telling You I'm Not Going" is nothing short of iconic in the gay community and beyond. This power-packed anthem, originally from the Broadway musical 'Dreamgirls,
