Stéphane Marino was a highly gifted Belgian music producer born in Morlanwelz, Belgium in 1974. Remixes of his solo work were done by the likes of Kai Tracid, Tandu, Kosmanova etc. At this point in history, the latter part of 1997, Marino had captured the attention of the whole trance industry, his future looked highly promising ... But sadly, on September 8th, 1999, at the high point of his career, ill fate struck as Marino Stephano was killed in a tragic car accident on the highway to Antwerp whilst underway to fellow producer Dirk "M.I.K.E." Dierickx, who not much later dedicated the track "Till We Meet Again" (released under his alias "Push") to the memory of his unfortunate peer.
