In this age of specialized formats and strict genre guidelines among DJ's and producers, what sets
Mark apart from his peers is his ability to spin everything from deep house, techno, disco and
classics in a set, with a determination of it all making sense, one of Shindig's longest standing residents, Mark Lowry is receiving considerable plaudits
for his production talents and DJ skills overlooking the dance floor. Mark laid the foundations of his
music career by becoming resident of one of the UK's Longest and most respected club nights
Shindig, almost 8 years ago and while I sit and struggle to think of a world class DJ he hasn't played
along side, Mark will be putting into action another project to put the majority of today's short sighted
“myspace producers†to shame.
Easily surpassing over a decade and a half of active service as one of the North East?s most
successful and notably humble DJ?s and producers of electronic music, Mark's dedication towards
production values has landed him gigs and invites up and down the UK at some of the countries
best clubs including Turnmills, The End and Global Gathering Festival. Mention the word “Residentâ€
though, amongst Newcastle's proud cobbled alleys of clubbing and Mark's reputation will most
certainly come up in conversation. Not one to simply fade into the background as part of the
furniture only to reappear on a Saturday night on cue, Marks versatility to deliver to Shindig?s
fiercely loyal crowd with quality house music at night is backed up by the exceptional standard of
production coming out of his studio by day.
Mark has dabbled in deep house, progressive and techno along the way and in the process built up
a impressive CV; Past and present studio work covering all angles and including non-dance related
teaching projects are a welcome escape and development platform for Mark's sound, which ranges
from club oriented sounds, to soul infected grooves; all seemingly operating on a common notion of
melody. In 2008, Mark took his Shindig relationship even further collaborating with Lexicon
Avenue's Scott Bradford and Mark Armstrong under the alias S-Low & Damaged People.
Collaborations and accompanied remix projects, on labels such as UrbanTorque, Saw (Mardel),
Movim (Airgroove) and Positiva, have not only gained plenty of support from underground DJ's, but
represent another chapter and slice of Mark's output, whilst subsequently raising his profile as a
name always on the rise. In particular re-workings of Pete Moss and Scope giving a outlook and
passion for music, not tethered by style but of consistently layered deep house, never forgetting the
important and often overlooked drench of musicality. With no shortage or ideas or goals, Mark
enters 2009 with even more success in his sights.
