The star of our Saturday Sessions '60 Minute Party' Radio show joins us for this week's interview ahead of next week's set in the Box...
Hello Mark!
Thanks for taking 5 mins with us at Saturday Sessions ahead of hitting The Bar this coming Saturday...
We’re really excited at having you back to play The Bar this Saturday. You’ve firmly cemented yourself as one of our favourite guests to have play at the club, but for those of our crew not too familiar with you please fill them in a bit about your style....
Thanks that means a lot...
I would say my Style is:
Party music for people who should know better...
It’s all about having a laugh, hands in the air, no chin scratching please...
Over the past few years you’ve played all over London at some of the best and coolest parties in town. What DJs would you say have been your favourite to play alongside?
Duke Dumont, Hannah Holland, Cormac, Skull Juice, Severino, Lee Moretimer, Lottie
Your 'Sixty Minute Party' CDs are near legendary around London town! Can you let our crew know where they can download these wicked mixes?
You also have your own radio show here on mos radio. Also called The Sixty Minute Party. When can we catch you on air?
Yeah the show’s going really well, one of my weekly hi lights...
I’m really happy to have been asked to represent Saturday Session every week on the radio...
You can catch me and the lovely Belle every Tuesday 4-5pm on
