Paradisio biography

Records company : Arcade Belgium. It started around 1993 when Patrick Samoy and Luc Rigaux better known as The Unity Mixers (aka Unity Power) were deeply impressed by the outstanding voice of a Spanish girl named Marisa Isabel Garcia Asensio. Marisa was born in Malaga, Spain, but currently resides in Belgium.

The first release Un Clima ideal was immediately a smash hit all over Belgium. Their second single Bailando sold worldwide over 1.000.000 copies in less than a year (and 5.000.000 throughout the years). The sexy way in which Marisa sang 'Si senor...' probably reminded a lot of young people of their first summer holiday love. No wonder that it went to #1 in Belgium, Italy, Denmark, Norway, Finland... sold more than 450.000 copies only in France and was the best selling single in Sweden ever (triple platinum!!). The third single Vamos a la discoteca was bingo again. By using a wide range of coloured wigs for every public perfomance Marisa created for herself a distinctive image. In the meantime the full album has been released accross Europe...

Paseo was the last single featuring Marisa. There was also a vocalist called Angie B who appeared in some TV shows, lipsyncing over her voice. It is not known wether her appearances were official or not.

In 1999 Paradisio released a new single called Samba del Diablo featuring a new female vocalist, Sandra De Gregorio (born in Napoli on October 30th 1976) along with Morena Esperanza, her sister, aka Micheline De Gregorio. Under the alias Esperanza, Micheline scored a hit with El Ritmo Caliente (a Patrick Samoy production too) the same year. It was followed by La Propanganda.

2001 : Paradisio released a remake of Vamos A La Discoteca, featuring the voice of Alexandra.

2003 : Paradisio, with a new team made of Peter Gillis and Jacques Bultinck (AB Logic), released a single called Luz De La Luna, featuring the voice of Maria del Rio. A video clip was shot on the beach of a "paradise island".

2005 : Paradisio is currently fronted by Miguel Fernandez.

2008 : new Paradisio frontlady is the Hispano-italian Shelby Diaz. She was chosen after a casting.

2009 : Paradisio released Bailando (me dices adios), which is a remake of the original Bailando, re-written by Shelby herself.

2010 : a digital re-edition of Paradisio's first album was released under title Tarpeia.

2011 : a new album entitled Noche Caliente was released. Among the tracks, 2 of them were performed by Esperanza (Baila Morena and Cultura Do Brazil).

2014 : Indhira Luna replaced Shelby who was pregnant.

2015 : Shelby came back after giving birth to a child.

2017 : in October, Shelby left the project. She was replaced by Irina Sanchez. Christina Sorce was part of the Swedish & Norway tours.

2019 : Paradisio was fronted by The Latina's Sweet Dolls.
