In a career spanning almost a decade, Mark has not left the pages of DJ Mag’s Top 100 DJ poll since his first inclusion in 2008, been Grammy nominated and performed at the world’s most iconic music venues and festivals around the world.
In 2003 with a personal vision for a new direction in house music, Mark built his first studio and created his own record label.
