Hailing from Vienna, Mark Michael has made a name for himself as one of the most exciting artists in modern Techno music.

With the release of 'Solar Storm', Mark propelled himself into the spotlight of the international Techno scene. The track quickly gained momentum and climbed to the top of the Techno Charts, earning a place among Beatport's Best Selling Techno Tracks of 2020.

Soon after, Mark's talent caught the attention of Techno legend Monika Kruse, leading to his debut on her iconic label Terminal M as one of the youngest artists to ever release on the imprint.

After earning the support of industry heavyweights like Adam Beyer, Charlotte de Witte, Armin van Buuren, Eric Prydz, Amelie Lens, Enrico Sangiuliano and many more, Mark began touring extensively throughout Europe and Asia.

In late 2022, Mark’s Single 'Mothership' was released on Pleasurekraft’s label Kraftek. Once again, the young Austrian made waves and turned the heads of Techno’s biggest names which further solidified his innovative sound and position as a trailblazer in modern Techno music.

Following the success of 'Mothership', Mark Michael and Pleasurekraft wasted no time in 2023 and kicked off the year with their collaboration 'Fear' - a one of a kind blend between Psy-Trance and Techno. With its rapid rise to popularity, 'Fear' is being regarded as one of the most sought-after tracks of 2023. 

At the end of 2023, Mark made his return to Kraftek with a 3-track concept EP titled 'Rebirth'. The dubstep-influenced release is a homage to Mark’s early days as a DJ and producer, showcasing his evolution as an artist while paying tribute to his musical roots.

In 2025, Mark started with a remix of the early 2000s classic "3rd Earth" by Solarstone and Scott Bond, released on Armin van Buuren’s prestigious label, Armada. Within just 48 hours, the track soared to #2 on Beatport's Trance Charts, proving that no genre is safe from Mark's touch.

With much to come, Mark Michael should definitely be on your watchlist as he continues to bring his unique sound to the global dance floors.

Advent – A coming, or an arrival, a coming into being or use. 

Quite an appropriate name for Cisco Ferreira, a man who has played a big part in the creation and development of Techno from the very beginning of this genre’s history. Indeed, his Techno CV is the stuff of legend. Cisco was producing Techno and performing live Techno shows years before the rest of the world had even heard of the genre. He released his first track in 1988, was a pioneer of the Live PA (or Live Public Address – performing Techno live in front of an audience using electronic music gear), and, if all that wasn’t enough, he even worked as the sound engineer on some of Derrick May’s, Adonis & Fingers Inc’s recording sessions! 

The list goes on, and so does Cisco. Unlike other Techno pioneers from the early years, Cisco continues to produce with as much passion and frequency as he did back in the day. His releases on Labels Like Tresor, Rotation, Electrix, Kanzleramt, Dj Gigolos, Pure Plastic, Synewave plus many more is just another example of his ongoing pursuit to keep making music and pushing Techno to new boundaries. 

Cisco was born to Portuguese parents on the island of Madeira (Portugal). His family moved to London (1975) when he was five years old, setting the stage for his musical career. While at Paddington College (1986) in West London, he studied sound engineering and secured a job after graduation as an assistant sound engineer at ZOLOU Then later WALL Studios.  

At this period is when he really started to learn about Sound & Production, his 1st main recording sessions as an engineer were rock & “Inde” based bands & the studio owners being in successful rock bands. Matt Dangerfield & John Payne “ASIA” this 1st step was a start in learning about balancing & mixing down the rock way, which had a lot of intense & Raw energy especially on drums & Guitars.. 

Other bands Cisco did sessions for: P.I.L. (John Lydon - sex pistols) – Robert Plant (Led Zeppelin) – That petrol emotion. Then Later Pop, Dance, Soul & reggae groups like: Wild Bunch (Nelly hopper & Massive Attack) – Marco Pirroni (Adam & the ants) - Maxi Priest – Sly Dunbar (Sly & Robbie) – Loose Ends – Cheryl Lynn… 

1987 Cisco began going to clubs and learning about this new thing called Acid House, which was spreading like crazy throughout London’s underground scene, culminating in the famous “Summer of Love” in 1988, the genre’s golden period. 

Around this time, a record label called, Jack Trax, “One of the 1st to release Acid House, House & techno in UK” moved in next door and began using the same studio for recording sessions, with Cisco as the engineer working with Fingers Inc, Adonis, Marshall Jefferson & Derrick May. Cisco released his first record in 1988 on Ferrari records (R&S records) Then later “Cisco Ferreira” EP on Fragile. 

His first big break came in 1994, when he and fellow Londonite Colin McBean (a.k.a. Mr. G) were brought on by Internal Records to help co-produce a group called Salt Tank. A record contract with Internal/FFRR soon followed, committing The Advent to 12 EP’s and 3 albums.

Today, The Advent goes on just as Cisco Ferreira. While he has had a long history with tons of accomplishments to hang his hat on, he continues to make history. The Advent is fulfilling Cisco’s vision as much as ever. He is busy touring as both a DJ and a live performer, producing for numerous labels, and running his own Techno imprint, Kombination Research. 

As Cisco moves forward, striving to fulfill the ambitious goals he has set one can look back at his storied past and see how he has come full circle… The Saga continues.
