By choice, @mark_seven keeps a low profile. But the truth is, he is one of those low-key but influential characters you really should know. The Stockholm-based Brit is a busy record dealer and online store owner as well as DJ and producer with a penchant for timeless disco and house. He showcases this in his productions, but also via his much-loved Parkway and Parkwest labels which explore both the soulful and more punchy sides of disco and early house. Loosely defined by raw drums, sweet Italo melodies and hints of early garage, this work has made him a firm favourite of everyone from Hunee to Jamie Tiller to Eris Drew.

After 30 years in the game, there aren't many aspects of house and disco he hasn't explored. All that feeds into his glorious mix for us, which is in celebration of the 10-year Parkway Records anniversary in mid-October. It is packed with happy, classy tunes and big vocals from across the ages. The crunchy drum textures and tinny melodies, warm basslines and infectious claps all transport you to a utopian dance floor packed with smiling faces and loose limbs. It's a life-affirming selection that will uplift and enrich your soul.

“In the midst of these tumultuous times, I've found refuge in the harmonies and rhythms of music, crafting a mix that captures the essence of the looming winter. Lately, I've been gravitating towards Lovers Rock and Dub Music. Perhaps there's something in the air that calls for the warmth and optimism these genres exude. It's my hope that this mix envelopes you in solace, bringing a beacon of positivity amid the prevailing chill. Let the melodies be your comforting blanket, reminding us all of the enduring power of music.”

“I loved putting this mix together, a concept that’s been on my mind for a while. Enjoy 90 minutes of music from entirely African artists / artists from African heritage. Mainly early SA House & Kwaito with a splash of soca & bubblegum to get the feet moving! Special thanks to Biko for helping out with a couple of the tracks in this one.”

Currently based in Berlin, he has found a cosy corner on Refuge Worldwide where he regularly rides the waves with his show Francachela. Pathing his way through the nightlife, he pushes big-room Balearic sounds around town with Orbita, a freshly minted party he runs alongside Llupe. Recorded in a free flowing manner this offering includes Downtempo, Street Soul, Italo and more to wash down an afternoon Cava and bring in that sunset you’ve been waiting for.
