Siano was the disco dj that perfected the art of beatmatching at his Gallery nights in New York in the early 70’s. His innovations were to inspire future clubland legends like Frankie Knuckles and Larry Levan, and eventually landed him a residency at the mythical New York disco palace Studio 54. He has travelled all over the world since, bringing the music and spirit of clubland's early days with him. Now a sprightly 56 years of age, his last Dublin appearance in 2009 was supposed to be his last ever, as he planned to retire in the autumn of that year. Turns out he couldn't stay away and with a fresh NYC residency established he looks set to keep the fire burning for some time yet.
