A moment whilst the music played il never ever forget. Handing the wheels of steel to Ferry Corsten was the most surreal moment for me and the most pinnacle of my DJ Career.

Thank you to everyone thats supported me on this journey. 
As a DJ we play the music, as a promoter, we organise the events, it’s you lot that make the night what it is. 
This really was “SOMETHING TO BLOW YOUR BRAINS OUT"

Thank you Limitless



Mark Tate (Spuddy) Live from the Middlesbrough Empire - Small Trees presents Ferry Corsten

Mark Tate aka DJ Spuddy, I hit the decks DJing around the age of 12 years old DJing on old hifi record players from Sony/Hitachi to Technics SL B2’s to SL-1500 Belt drive decks, and collected vinyl records ever since.


My preferred audio taste is electronic & techno music from styles such as Hardcore (Dutch/UK), Bouncy Techno, German Trance, Happy Hardcore, Italian Dance / Makina, Gabba,and all aspects of Trance music. I've Been Pretty much driven by the sounds of the Powerhouse, venue , Colosseum and After Dark tapes in which I collected and grew up listening to.

In the year of 1999 I became in love with Trance music and bought my very first trance vinyl - system F - Out of the blue - from then on I became in love with it, my spectrum become more energetic with a hybrid fusion of progressive Trance, Hard & Banging Trance, Hardstyle and Hard House. Massive love of Gatecrasher, Goodgreef, Cream, Rong, ASOT etc etc.

Something about me is I am picky when it comes to a tune and only follow the sounds that penetrate deeper than my ears. My mixing sound and mixing styles developed from practise and practise, and still to this day still developing, my dimensions and my smooth precision on mixing is coming on.

My First break was spent playing clubland for many years at a major local night club & Dj'd alongside local hard-hitters and national acts alike, playing those tracks that get you tapping your feet and nodding your head without you realising it.

forward 2020 brought colosseum reunion, reminiscing the old skool back to people’s minds, basically i took it to a new level, then I started up limitless - trance gathering which is going from strength to strength, quite a few successful events in, support from other brands, we look forward to the future.

Update - Recently just hosted the first floor in the empire - unbelievable 



Take care

Love Spuddy
