Rave Mama Deep Sea Junk Boat Set 120-128bpm 31/Jul/22

On Friday, January 6th, I was honored to play my very first show of the New Year at ORA Nightclub in downtown Seattle, and this one was for a fun Trance and Progressive local Seattle DJ’s night called “Illuminate”. For this Illuminate it was an all B2B sets (B2B = “back-to-back”, 2 DJ’s playing a set together) night, and I was lucky enough to once again be paired up with one of my favorite local talents, the lovely Janice Chae, a.k.a. J-Note. If you’ve listened to some of my more recent mixes you’ve probably heard Janice and I spin together before, opening for the likes of Paul Oakenfold and Oliver Smith within the past 6 months. So, I am always excited to B2B with Janice and I really love how her taste in music works so well with mine and we always have so much fun and many laughs up there behind the decks. It ended up being a great night and we had a really good turn out at the club for a “local’s night”, so it was extra fun to play to a bunch of great people whom were there to have a fun time and dance the night away. Originally this Illuminate was announced to be an "Anjuna Tribute night", but that changed towards the end, however Janice and I were already working on getting an Anjuna playlist together, so we stuck with our original plan, since we both adore the Anjuna record labels, and played a magical playlist of may of our more recent Fave Anjuna tracks, plus one massive golden oldie by Mat Zo slipped in there thanks to Janice and I really loved hearing that one again after so many years. Anyway, as usual, I hope that you enjoy the set!! Cheers and Happy New Year. Mark a.k.a. Gotek

Gotek + J-Note guest B2B Anjuna Tribute set for “Illuminate” at Ora, Seattle, WA, Fri, Jan 6th, 2023

On Friday, May 19th, I recorded a demo set of some dreamy, relaxing proggy stuff that I have been listening to and collecting for the past couple months, literally to upload to dropbox so I could listen to it in the backyard BBQ’ing on a beautiful, early summer evening haha, the night before the Rinaly show at Ora, which was last Saturday (AND, a totally awesome time!!! My set should also be uploaded sometime soon). I actually did try to record this once before several weekends before that but I didn’t like a few things about it and cut the recording off midway through, but this time it turned out pretty cool, so I thought I would share. Just a random hodge-podge of beautiful tracks that make me feel a certain special way, kind of happy/sad, but hopeful, and I hope it gives you the same feeling. Cheers!! -Mark a.k.a. Gotek

IDGT41   Saturdays Set 21st Jan 2024

On Sunday, December 31st, I was thrilled to have been invited back down to Portland, Oregon, to play a New Year’s Eve 2024 Trance Party at Opaline Nightclub, for the 2nd year in a row!! Opaline is a neat, kind of intimate little club in the heart of the NW “Old Town” district of downtown Portland, and it was a total blast to be down there again spinning some Trance with my old DJ buddies from yesteryear; Zoxy, Scott Vorel, and Tim Clang, guys from the old “Mission Trance” days when I had a once-a-month residency at the “Whiskey Bar” in Portland for a few years, over a decade ago.. Whiskey Bar has sadly since closed down during COVID, and ironically, I had to walk by the boarded up building where it once was, to get to Opaline, I could still feel the energy and almost hear the Oonz Oonz Oonz coming out of there like the old days, a lot of fond memories and ghosts from a better time emanating from within. As soon as I found out that my set time was from 12am to 1am, starting right after the New Year’s Champaign Toast at Midnight, I immediately knew that I needed to kick off the set with the CLASSIC “Moonlight Party” by Fonzerelli, to get a bit of that early nostalgic Tiesto “In Search of Sunrise” vibe, and to set up the total party mood to keep people dancing and on the dance floor. From there, I just decided to keep it all Classics, and played a smattering of some of my very favorite tracks, ranging from 2005 to 2016, but mostly centered around the early 20-teens, to align with that magical era when I was playing the Mission Trance at the Whiskey Bar in Portland and Foundation in Seattle, when there were SOOOOO many incredible Progressive Trance tracks coming out back then. Anyway, the DJ coming on after me took some extra time coming up to the DJ booth so I got to sneak in a few extra tracks past my 1-hour time slot, and also I ratcheted it up to some Uplifting Trance at the end, which was fun. Also, this set was RECORDED LIVE directly from the mixer at the club, and unfortunately the first track got cut off on the recording a bit.. Oh well.. But the rest turned out pretty great and I hope you enjoy this collection of some of my very favorite tracks and relive that New Year’s Eve with me. Cheers, and happy 2024 everyone!! ~ Mark, a.k.a. Gotek

Guest set for ”New Years Eve 2024 at Opaline”, Recorded LIVE on Sunday, December 31st, 2023

On Sunday, January 21st, I recorded this, the next iteration of my Progressive House demo series, which I do every once in a while, when I feel like mixing but I don’t have any good shows coming up that match the music, yet meanwhile the flow of incoming tracks is just too great to ignore.. So, Viola!! Demo Set time haha.. Since I got tired of trying to think of clever new names for each demo set, I’ve just been calling them the month they were recorded in, followed by “Prog”, like “October Prog” late last year. But moving forward, I am going to call them a very generic “Prog Sessions”, because that’s what they are, even though everyone else also uses that same boring naming convention already haha. So, welcome to the January edition of Prog Sessions, the first of the New Year. And truth be known, I’ve been working on this one for an embarrassingly long time, and have actually recorded it several times before last Sunday, but they were never quite the right mix of tracks. I always have a rule for these things, and that is, would I want to listen to it multiple times myself. If the answer is yes, then I have a keeper (usually).. But if the answer is no, I keep on working on it. I figure that I need to make these things for myself first, make something that I love deeply, and hopefully if I get it right, other people might get some joy out of it too. So, with this one, I really now like the blend of Progressive House and Progressive Trance, some more deep and moody, and some more funky and Housey, with the common denominator of emotional and melodic undercurrent throughout. I almost think this one has a theme of “Love Sickness”, with the happy epiphanies of joy, followed by the moments of sadness or depression of longing for someone that maybe doesn’t notice you or like you back in the same way, but I’ll let you be the judge haha. Anyway, I hope you like the mix!! Cheers!!! ~ Mark a.k.a. Gotek PS: BTW, I took that photo in Kona, Hawaii, last Dec, so lovely!!

Eclipse of Tomorrow

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. =)
