Mark Trade

1979, the year did not only bring one of the most amazing bands for him,Mario Koehler aka Marktrade was born at this time in Leipzig/Germany too. With an age of 9 he got a smallCASIO keyboard from his granny and began first steps in recording... 5 years later Mario was inspired by a schoolmate to arrange his first own tracks with an AMIGA, later combined with the MS-DOS based Fasttracker. Under the synonym "303-Freak" he had his first Radioplay in 1995 for a local radio station.

Meanwhile he works with other things and is inspired, what the technicial possibilities offer. His sounds are affected with sounds of the 80ies and the whole Electro-Darkwave-EBM-scene mixed with electronic influences nowadays.
