On, Saturday, April 29th, I was beyond honored to be the primary support for easily one of my all-time favorite Trancers, Anjuna star and true prodigy Trance pioneer from the earlier days, Hungarian DJ/record producer, Levente Márton, better know by his stage name, SUNNY LAX. This is one of those “pinch myself am I dreaming??” moments because this is the 3rd time I’ve been on the opening roster for Sunny Lax, which is 3x more than I could have even hoped for haha, and it’s always such a pleasure to see this genuinely friendly, humble, and sweet fellow again, let alone warm up the decks for him. What an honor!! I was joined by Bryan Kyes on the opening crew, a new edition to the Seattle Trance DJ Fam, and Bryan kicked us off with a classic trance set, and I carried on from there with this, a mixture of euphoric Progressive and Trance, and threw in a little side excursion of some beatsy techno tracks because I was in the mood to hear some driving bass, hope you don’t mind haha!! Anyway, as usual, it was a totally fun night at Ora and the crowd was amazing and the Anjuna Fam love was in the air. Hope you enjoy the set, and also just a heads-up that I am pretty far along on the next iteration of the "White Label Trance Classics" series, # 4, hoping to record it this weekend.. And lastly, I'm excited to be opening for rising Japanese big room Trance star, the absolutely lovely, RINALY, at Ora Nightclub on May 20th, so be looking for that one later this month.. Cheers!! -Mark a.k.a. Gotek

Opening set for SUNNY LAX, Ora Nightclub, Seattle, April 29th, 2023

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. =)
