Biography

Way back in 1986, Mark turned to the decks after an advert caught his attention requiring a DJ to play at the roller rink. Mark, an avid record collector, got the job when he turned up with a bag of 7-inchs and started building a name for himself.

The next few years, Mark served his apprenticeship on the mobile disco circuit, 18th and 21st birthday parties, weddings, fashion shows and working men’s clubs.

Fast forward to the hot summer of 1988 and the UK was in the Summer of Love as the rave scene exploded. Mark was tuned to the dance beat after a staple diet of funk, soul, disco and hip hop had prepared him for this new dance movement. Next thing he knew, he was playing a few festivals, field raves and barn parties.

From '91 to the present day, Mark has been on the club scene, playing and filling some of the North West's premier venues like Manhattan Heights, Peppermint Place, Hacienda and home in Manchester, Tokyo Joes, Squires, Feel, Gamebird, XPO, Liquid, Lava and Ignite, Heaven & Hell, The Syndicate Blackpool and other top venues up and down the UK.

In 98 Freejack was the main man at Rock FM, supplying the music and mixing for the Friday Night Live club nights. In no time, he was on the air as the silent DJ on the Rock FM Hot Mixes for a variety of shows.

During 1999, Mark became the roving reporter for Rock FM on the white isle of Ibiza while he entertained the masses at Eden in San Antonio and Privilege in Ibiza Town. The following year, back in the UK, his mixes for Rock FM were played out at Radio Aire (Leeds) and Kiss 100 (London) and was noticed by national Radio1 when he was the warm up DJ at a few of their events containing 30,000 + clubbers.

His next project was the Rock the Dancefloor CDs and then the All Mixed Up series. He was also getting into the habit of remixing and producing his own music.

In 2001, Mark was asked to present an after hours club show - The Acid Test.

The show became legendary with clubbers, insomniacs and those on the late shift playing just about any style of music from house to soul,indie to big beat and techno to ambient, guest Djs included Sasha, Timo Maas, Grooverider, James Lavell to name a few.

Meanwhile, he was showing off his writing skills for the Lancashire Evening Telegraph with his regular club column which attracts 115,000 readers a week!
