Born & Raised from Tacoma, Washington. At the young age of 10, Mark would provide music for his Mom’s party’s, but when his mom bought him Two Turntables and a Microphone at the sweet age of 16, it changed his life, and he never looked back. From Djing House party’s, to spinning all his High School events. He even received a credit for playing music for the school lunches, and kids from other schools would gather to hear him spin. It was one big party.
(1983) At the age of 18, Mark became one of the Pioneer Dj’s of the Pacific Northwest, spinning at one of the hottest teenage nightclubs around (The Spectrum Nightclub), where they would bring such acts like: SIR — MIX — ALOT, ICE — T, EGYPTIAN LOVER, RODNEY‑O & JOE COOLEY, BOOGIE BOY, NOCERA, CONNIE, just to name a few.
This was a time when they tried to ban Hip Hop music from the Pacific Northwest. Mark was one of the Few & Proud Pioneers to keep it alive. From Spinning at clubs with other Pioneers such as JEFF FRADY, PAUL BUTLER, DONALD GLAUDE, to Djing from Seattle to California, Canada & Latin America. Spinning at BOBBY BROWN’S BDAY PARTY and HOSTING SNOOP DOGGS DJ JAM’S BDAY PARTY with the whole DOGG POUND in the house, plus being MAXAMILLION DJ for a few show’s. Even chaperoning EMINEM’S CREW D12, when they were in town.
Mark can spin it all, from OLD SCHOOL (70’S, 80’S DISCO, RETRO, RNB, HIP HOP CLASSICS) to Today’s TOP 40 MAINSTREAM.
