Mark August's style fits somewhere in between detroit, house, techno, deephouse, minimal and sometimes a slight touch of underworldesque progressive.Seven years ago he discovered quality dancemusic through some friends of his. It was carlcraig's "69-Desire" on one late morning, after one of his first all-night-long-dance experiences that triggered the whole journey. It blew him away, and still does. This also was the time he had some spare money, and a friend suggested to buy an atari and a sampler; which, if he didn't like it to much, could easily sell again without losing to much money. The beginning of a neverending story. Now music; and electronic music in particular, reigns his life.He got his inspiration from the whole of electronic detroit-music at first, after that all (electronic) music with soul. His first releases on Mezzotinto and Curle Recordings have been embraced and charted by the likes of Ame, Laurent Garnier, Steve Bug, Sacha, Ripperton, Miss Kittin, Monika Kruse, Dixon, Tiefschwarz, Karotte and various others. Recently his track "Warm" got a second life on the allmighty InnerVisions label of Ame and Dixon, and signed for various tracks for the prestigious Connaisseur label.
