DJ / PROMOTER 

Originally from Cape Town, Mark has been involved in the underground music scene in Cape Town and London since 2007. For over a decade, he hosted his "Rythm is my Bitch" parties, which were built around a small community of like-minded friends and partygoers in Cape Town and London. 

Now based in Porto, his sets range from a grittier indie dance and proggy sound to a more banging techno and psy-tech style, depending on the time of day, location, and crowd.
