Elon Musk - NFT (Technoking remix by Mark Zabala)

My wife was born in Crimea which has been both under Russian and Ukranian control over the years, so this war has been especially heartbreaking to watch. 

However, there have been moments of joy and human triumph even in these tough times. It was so exciting and heartwarming to see the Kalush Orchestra from Ukraine win Eurovision 2022 with their song "Stefania."  

Very soon afterwards, The city of Vilnius in Lithuania with Monika Liu, jazz and rap singer Daiva Starinskaitė and the musicians of the Lithuanian National Opera and Ballet Theatre posted their own beautiful version with English lyrics expressing solidarity.

Upon hearing it, I was compelled to pull the two versions of it together and create my own dance remix.

If you like it, please consider sharing it and donating to Ukranian refugees.

Note: I also have nothing but love to my Russian brothers and sisters.  This is not their fault, and we all want peace.  Please hold your heart open for those on both sides of this conflict and all conflicts.

Ninja Breaks Volume 2 - Beauty, Darkness, Aggression and Funk

DJ Mark Zabala began his career in 1999 in the forests and deserts of Southern California. After five successful years of contributing to a vibrant community of dancers who would drive hours to experience music that felt truly transcendental, he was recruited by the Ninja Skillz crew to bring some of the outdoor vibe to clubs, themed warehouse events and outdoor festivals.


His passion for music has taken him through a journey that has led him through nearly every electronic music genre. He loves the syncopated grooves of house and breaks, the bass of electro and dubstep, the timbres of techno and psytrance, the atmospheres and emotions of progressive, the splintered cuts and arrangements of idm and drum n bass, the organic and natural sounds of world and folk music, the catchiness and relatability of pop.  Zabala fuses them together in a way that matches and enhances the environment he is playing in.


He has risen to the forefront of the Los Angeles EDM with successful appearances at major LA nightclubs like Spundae @ Circus, Giant @ Vanguard, multiple desert oasis festivals in Mexico, The Alma Paradiso on Catalina Island, The Elysium Midsummer Festival, Freakshow, The Hollywood Palladium, several "Decompression" events in California and Nevada, and several years on multiple stages and art cars at the annual Burning Man festival.

His love for events also resulted in long-running club nights such as the Forbidden Series in Chinatown, and the Fable events at the Medusa. He has played on lineups with DJs such as Sasha, Meat Katie, The Crystal Method, Luke Fair, Filthy Rich, diva Danielle, Hedflux, and many others.


Now he is based out of Austin, Texas and launching the record label - Umbraphile Records
