About Me


Born 1986 in Rijeka, raised on island Rab he started playing the piano at age 9 & began going into musical school. While playing always the same 1000 year old classical songs, the need for different & dynamic music was dramaticly increasing. At the age of 12 he bought the "Prodigy - Fat Of The Land" album and was totally driven by that sound, immediatly he singed up to play the guitar too, in the next 4 years the sound of sharp distorsion totally fascinated him, so he began to listen a lot of Metal & Rock music, influenced by guitar riffs, solo's & rythms.So after 6 years of playing the piano, 2 years of playing the guitar & finishing the first 8 years of regular school he decided to move back for High School to Rijeka,
There he continued only to take more guitar lessons, and buying a el. guitar, he met with some great people in High School & started gathering a band to play on weekend's but after only 3 month's spend in Rijeka, by a invitation of his girlfriend to go out on a usual saturday, he finished up in a near Club called "Fun Academy" where at that time in 1999 was playing Progressive House & Techno. So that long hair metal head started to go regulary to the club listening to the various & new deliverd sounds by DJ's every weekend.
But his curiosity lead him to push the listening limits even further by favorizing House & Techno tune's he also discoverd 4 himself D'n'B, Surf, Reggae, Jazz, Trip-Hop, Lo-Fi & Ambiental music, and listend to almost everything from everywhere.
At age 16 he & his friend Dixie Zoo who was totally crazy about all kinds of electronic music, started to play every Thursday & sometimes Friday @ the Radio, inviting many friends to the show called "Turntable Symphony". And by making more shows and discovering new syles created, they've been up to date with music thx to lot's of promo material.
At that stage Mark was already using a PC for 6 years, thx to his brother Hari. And by raising money from his gr8 parents he bought a new laptop, so he started to produce his own music,and was never really satisfied with the sound he was getting, but his friend Dixie Zoo didn't think so & played his tracks always on the "Turntable Symphony" radio show, wich was a sub-project from the so called "Rabbanna Sound System"
The next year he bought 2x Pioneer cdj-100 so he could easily practice his mix @ home & started to play @ party's not only in the studio on the radio. After finishing High School he moved to Vara--din to study Informatics & Managment, so he met Examine, Sasha Fishter, Tosh Marcato, Dj Deeg, N-Soul & a lot of crazy party people around this antique & old city . At that stage the guitar was left in the corner waiting for a usage or a better hardware / PC to plug it in to, so it waits still today to make the first release ...
