Influenced and inspired by artists like Young Mc, Prince, Blackstreet and others it wasnt a big surprise he
soon got caught wearing white gloves and break-dance in front of his grandma. Maybe this incident in 1989, when
house music conquered the clubs, was the point when he decided to focus on the music and not impress his
grandma with way to big gloves and untalented moves.
Listening to music the whole day, snatching into clubs he was too young to go to, he quickly became the new
music lexicon for his friends and the girls just loved him because of his double tape deck.
Overwealmed from the audience reactions on different djs he watched playing, he more and more wanted to step into the club scene and become a Dj.
Years later, at the spot where he wanted to be; entertaining people with his music choice, and technical skills, gaining experience in playing at many Events and Clubs in Germany - soon the Events and Clubs became bigger and bigger as well as his reputation as the magazine Prinz in cooperation with Becks Beer gave him an Award for Best Dj 2006/2007.
But that was not enough for Mark... It was more or less the beginning of a new chapter...
Over the years where he played with Djs like Shapeshifters, Tom Novy, Pippi amongst many many others,
the idea of creating his own vibes and becoming an artist - like all the other big shots, was growing and growing.
Constantly on the look out for a good and talented production partner he finally found John Voltaire,
a young and very talented producer and upcoming Dj from Berlin.
Lots of coffees, laughs and a couple of Pizza delivery calls from the studio later, the first tracks were made.
Within the incredible short time of about 2 weeks promoting the tracks to chosen labels and artists, getting
remarquable feedback from big players like DBN, Andy Caldwell, Inkfish and others, Kristoffer from Nellie Recordings (Sweden)
finally saw his talent and signed "Tabaka" and "Happy Tears" for Marks first release to be dropped end of november 2008!
Further releases and remixes are in the pipeline and a Bale & Voltaire EP on Inkfish is already signed.
