DARK MARK
With one hand in the light and one hand in the dark, DJ Dark Mark’s unrivaled versatility in the Arizona dance music scene has united dancers of both spooky and friendly beats under the same umbrella. Beginning in the late 2000s at the elegant Club Palazzo for the weekly industrial night Tranzylvania, he spun hard-hitting industrial dance music to crowds of 200 or more as they stomped about in knee-high boots, striped corsets, and ghastly makeup. His zest for the dark beats of The Prodigy, Combichrist, Icon of Coil, and Skrillex later cross-pollinated with upbeat electro jams revered by dancers worldwide, culminating in a showcase of a seamless mix of major and minor key dance music at the monthly dance event Cupcake! a Monthly Fetish-Themed Dance Party. This was his first electro-industrial crossover gig, and he has followed the trajectory ever since.
Dark Mark’s brand of hard bass dance music is quickly warping the playing field for present and future Arizona DJs and dance clubs.
