Brand new – I have been meaning to record a set of all of this beautiful deep & proggy house music I’ve been listening to and accumulating ever since the ABGT 250 show, primarily inspired by the Above & Beyond deep set that kicked off the show and the entire 2nd day (Anjunadeep day) which was literally one of the best days of my life, music-wise, pure magic all day long, and a show I will never forget. For this set I did a dry run and recorded it once just to listen to it myself and practice, but ended up keeping the first take, it just seemed to fall together and turned out really cool (I thought so at least). For the ocean sounds I plugged my iPad into one of the channels on the mixer and played some relaxing beach sounds while I recorded the set, just because I was wanting to add some ambient sounds to enhance the chill vibe. It's a nice journey through sound to get you in the mood for the warmer months ahead and delves a bit into that grey area where progressive house, deep house, techno, and progressive trance all collide to make something very sublime, soothing and wonderful, which I love so much. Anyway, as usual, I hope that you enjoy the set! –Mark

Deep Progressive demo set - SPRING CHILL 2018 - recorded live on Sat, Apr 21, 2018

Seattle's Mark McCarthy a.k.a. DJ Gotek emerged out of the exploding Electronic Dance Music scene in the Pacific Northwest over the past decade+, and has held residencies at some of the hottest DJ clubs in the NW such as The Underground, Club Contour, and Foundation Nightclub in Seattle and Whiskey Bar in Portland, and also has played at an ever growing list of clubs and venues on the west coast. Specifically noted for his euphoric, uplifting, and melodic Progressive and Trance sets over the past decade, DJ Gotek has found himself being invited to open for some of the world's most prolific and iconic Trance and Progressive DJ/Producers, artists such as Paul van Dyk, Paul Oakenfold, Cosmic Gate, Sunny Lax, Genix, Solarstone, 4 Strings, Aly & Fila, ARTY, Ilan Bluestone, Super8 & Tab, Omnia, Ronski Speed, Orjan Nilson, Roger Shah, Chicane, The Blizzard, Lange, Daniel Kandi, Alex M.O.R.P.H., Gareth Emery, MYON, Max Graham, Andy Moor, Richard Durand, Bobina, Stoneface & Terminal, John OO Fleming, Simon Doty, Dezza, the list grows ever longer.. DJ Gotek always strives to create a feeling of euphoria with his mixes which are consistently heavy on the dreamlike and spine-tingly electronic sounds, regardless of which genre he’s playing in; Mark’s passion is to move people by bringing the very best in in Trance and Progressive to his audiences, and hopefully it shines through in the mixes he creates.

Note: Mark only uses AIFF lossless quality tracks mostly purchased at Beatport.com (except for producer demos). All mixes were either recorded live in the club or directly from Mark's gear (DJM A9 Mixer, 2 Pioneer CDJ3000's) recorded on a Zoom H4n Pro in WAV format, then professionally sound leveled post-recording, Voice ID Tagged, and  converted to MP3 by Chris Dececio Studios in the UK. EVERY single mix on Mark's Soundcloud was recorded live and in the moment on top-notch Pioneer DJ gear, not mixed with computer software, so they might not be exactly perfect 100% of the time, but they are "real", which is a standard of mix quality, authenticity, care, passion for live mixing, and DJ integrity Gotek is proud of. =)
