RAIDERS OF THE LOST ARP is Mario Pierro's solo project. He has been releasing music since 1996, as one half of the MAT-101 and Jollymusic bands (www.discogs.com/artist/Mario+Pierro) together with Francesco de Bellis (Francisco, L.U.C.A.). He has published his works on Rome imprint Nature Records run by Marco Passarani, as well as releasing remixes and licenses on several other labels (Sony Music's dance label Illustrious, Ghostly's seminal 'Disco Nouveau' compilation). The Raiders solo project has been active since 2004 and fuses his love for soul, funk and jazz with electro and disco influences.
