On Friday, July 19th, I was incredibly honored to be on the opening roster, along with my good buddy, Eric Weber a.k.a. WEB, for world-renown Serbian Trance & Progressive producer/DJ and honestly one of my favorite artists of all-time, VINTAGE & MORELLI, for his debut US tour with the Silk Music Showcase # 500. I have probably played more Vintage & Morelli tracks in my sets than any other artist, and have always been fascinated and mesmerized by his ethereal, haunting, melodic style, mastery of the angelic piano chords in his tracks, and always building in that infectious hook into his songs that just tug at your heartstrings in such a wonderful way!! Marko Cubric (V&M) was such an amazingly sweet and humble guy, and I had the opportunity to chat with him for about 30 minutes after my set and ask all the questions I ever wanted to ask, and really tell him what a huge fan I've been of his music! It was definitely a “bucket list” DJ night for me. The crowd was so incredibly AWESOME that night and I really tried to put together a down-tempo, ethereal, and atmospheric set that would really set up the night nicely, and was really happy to see so many people out on the dance floor dancing during my time behind the decks. The whole night was just amazing and I will never forget it. Hope you enjoy the set!! –Mark a.k.a. Gotek

Opening set for VINTAGE & MORELLI, Ora Nightclub, Seattle, Friday, July 19th, 2019

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. =)
