Mark’s passion and expertise: staying strongly connected with his audience through STORYTELLING in longer sets.
Mark Jackus started his DJ career as a 15 year old teenager. He was resident DJ at UNIT club & PHUTURE CLUB (beside DJ D-Nox) in the mid 90s, under his old alter ego aMaZe. He discovered his undying love for electronic music in early stages but that has never stopped Mark from always exploring new paths. He was craving something that hasn’t been available then. A shortcoming in Germany in diverse house music led to his initial career take off: creating and managing his own events and club nights.
His significant high class bookings such as Jeff Mills, DJ Pierre, M.A.N.D.Y., Ida Engberg, President Bongo (GusGus) or Tyree Cooper stood out and were influential encounters in his career. This trailblazing impulses led to career defining collabs with Joi Cardwell, Nakadia, Sergio Fernandez and releases on Insert Coin, Stylerockets, Spark Musik or Dapayk’s Rrygular.
Today, almost three decades later, his sound is an established but unique journey through different electronic music styles - a diverse mix through House, Acid and Deep Techno. Mark’s most outstanding releases so far are “Hello My Friend” with the Lithuanian Band Golden Parazyth on Groove On Music, especially the remix from Miami House Legend George Morel, and a version of “In the night” on Noir Music, remixed by Timo Maas and Tiger Stripes, which both proved to be very successful on an International level. Back in 2006 he created CusCus. An event series that brings attention to the protection of wildlife by raising money in collaboration with WWF. A personal and deep rooted passion that was awarded in 2009 by UNESCO as an innovative and sustainable idea, way before it became an inflationary term.
