ACOLOUR 043LP
|
Over the past five years, Mark has forged a unique identity in underground drum'n'bass, alloying traditional junglist motifs and electroacoustic ambience through a series of singles on A Colourful Storm and Unterton. A Colourful Storm now presents the culmination of his work and debut album, a shapeshifting expression of luminescence and rhythmic complexity. Mark's ambitions with Integrier Dich Du Yuppie (ACOLOUR 009EP, 2017) and The Least Likely Event Will Occur In The Long Run (2018) reflected upon the relationships between -- and division of -- people, place, and power. Now he responds with two pieces featuring his signature skittering drums, seismic sub-bass, and atmospheric passages recalling Roland Kayn, Luigi Nono, and Bernard Parmegiani. Moonlight shines, choral voices appear from above. Arresting, unnerving tranquility. Recommended for fans of Eli Keszler, Hiro Kone, Torsten Pröfrock, and Kali Malone.

UTON 014EP
|
Mark releases a new EP called Integriert Euch Nicht. "Fucking Sick Of Myself Since Day One (Hot Desk Mix)" and "Hats Off To Herr. F" were first performed at Mark's 2018 Berghain live set during Ostgut Ton Nacht. The former is a breakcore-adjacent call to arms for the self-loathing, the latter an Antarctic shiver of predator-mode IDM-illektro. "Integriert Euch Nicht (Commercial Jump Up Mix)" features singing from Blackest Ever Black alum Silvia Kastel and sax-like sounds from Wilted Woman playing the aerophone, an electronic woodwind instrument. Otherwise, it's Mark's most deliberately straight-ahead drum & bass track to date.

UTON 012EP
|
Unterton presents three tracks of high-octane electronics by Mark. 0-160 BPM in 15 minutes. On his Unterton debut, Mark continues further down a path of dark and psychedelic beat science. At times tranquil and hypnotic, other times charging forward between cracked whips and whiplash left-turns.

ACOLOUR 009EP
|
Mark's back with three seething cuts at the state of Berlin affairs. Killer steppers coming off 2017's cult classic Here Comes A Fucking Startup Campus and outings on Bristol's No Corner. Post-modern d'n'b with shades of latter-day Source Direct and the rattle of golden-era Skull Disco.
