Hell yeah!  This song always slaps!  I love it!

omg!  Without You is one of my favorite tracks!  The Rafael Frost Remix is my favorite, and never fails to make people go nuts on the dance floor.

I am listening to this as I leave work on a beautiful spring day in Germany. Your mixes always have me walking into the sun <3

On Saturday, February 11th, I was honored to be the primary support opening DJ for world-renown Anjuna star, Progressive and Techno UK record producer and DJ, Damion Houchen, better known by his stage name, GENIX. I am lucky enough to have opened for GENIX twice now, the first time was at a club in Seattle called The Underground, which was a super fun little 200-person club and unfortunately is no longer open due to COVID, but this time it was at ORA, which is one of the coolest clubs in Seattle, and the crowd there that night for GENIX was truly something special. I had a ton of friends show up to the show as well so it's always extra fun to play a set and look down from the DJ booth to see a bunch of smiling faces of people you know, that is the best feeling. GENIX was such a sweetheart, and the Anjuna and Trance Fam vibes were so magical that evening. I had kind of an eclectic set that night that bounced around from some more organic sounding house to trance to progressive house to more trance haha, but it all seemed to fall together quite nicely and the crowd seemed to really enjoy it, so I hope that you do too, at least as much as I enjoyed playing it!! Cheers, and hope to see you on the dancefloor sometime soon!! -Mark, a.k.a. GOTEK

Hey guys, well, I had SO much fun recording the first White Label Classic trance mix, and received a lot of much-appreciated positive feedback on it, that I AM BACK with another Classic Uplifting Trance mix for ya, with White Label 002!! I really dug deep on this one and used even more MP3’s than on the first one because some of this stuff is so rare it’s no longer available to purchase, and/or only released on vinyl. I did my best with sound leveling to make sure the recording volume is consistent from track to track, but some of this still stuff is just so old that it wasn’t great sound quality, hopefully it sounds okay. I had to take several tries at recording this and really had to play with the tracks and placement, but I think I got it right in the end, however I’ll let you be the judges haha. One thing I noticed is I heavily indexed on Ronski Speed on this set, but truth be told it was really Ronski’s sound that I obsessed with in the early years of building interest in Trance, and we have a lot to thank Ronski for in all of his pioneering and influence in this uplifting trance sound in the very early days, some of my very favorite stuff of all-time. Also loaded it up with some other golden oldies and rare gems and I really like the way this one turned out. Hoping you do too, and please LMK in comments etc, if you like this “classics” stuff I’ll keep recording them for you guys.. Cheers, and hope you enjoy the mix! Mark, a.k.a. Gotek

Hey guys!! Well I've been plugging away at this White Label Classic Trance series and managed to finally record a take that I liked last Sunday, so here it is, after something like 15 attempts to record it and endless rearranging and being unsatisfied and going back to the drawing board again and again messing with it haha.. It's always worth the effort though, and I have really appreciated all the nice comments in support of this classics series, as well as it's personally a lot of fun for me to mix this stuff, from back when Trance was still pretty new and raw, and all the memories it conjures up from perhaps a simpler, happier time, for me at least. BTW, I already have White Label 4 almost figured out, and figure I have enough classic trance that I am still passionate about to keep the series going for at least another 3-4 iterations, so if you like this stuff please let me know in the comments, and/or if there are tracks that you miss from yesteryear that you'd like to possibly hear in this series. Really like the way this one turned out, and I hope that you do too!! Until next time, Cheers, and I hope you enjoy the mix!! Mark a.k.a. Gotek PS: I will be the direct opener for Sunny Lax at Ora in Seattle this coming Saturday, so expect to see that set up here sometime soon, can't WAIT!!! =)

“White Label” a Classic Trance demo mix: 003, recorded live Apr. 22, 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

Melodic Techno Mix :)

Simply a damn good techno song with a lot of energy and crazy grooves!

Twinspin - August Feeling

Bubble & The Freak show

This track means a lot to me. It represents a very important experience that happened some months ago. I walked around 800km in Spain to get to Santiago de Compostelle and I met some amazing people on the way, captured great sounds that you can find in this track. I hope you enjoy it

The Camino Heals You

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. =)
