Mark Starr
Mark Starr has been honing his sound for over a decade, however his career was recently put in the fast lane after his “Sunshine” EP on MC Flipside's D.B.R. Recordings was noticed by Kill Frenzy and other members of dirtybird records. That early dirtybird connection came to full fruition once label-boss Claude VonStroke tweeted at the young producer, stating plainly: "send me something as good as your last remix (of Wet::Sex's "Spaceship") and it's signed on the spot!"A fortuitous moment in Mark's career, which has been on a steady upward ascent ever since; in the past year, he's released music on Skrillex's label OWSLA and made himself a home on San Francisco's dirtybird (his track "Rood Boy," featured on the 2013 dirtybird Players compilation, has been rinsed around the world by artists such as Justin Martin, Skream & Benga, Stanton Warriors, Riva Starr, Shadow Child and more). In 2013 Mark has seen airplay of his originals and remixes on BBCRadio1, Radio1Xtra, Rinse.FM, BBC Radio 1’s Essential Mix, Ministry Of Sound Radio and has had a guest mix featured on Foamo’s Rinse.FM podcast.2013 has had a strong finish for Mark, with an original releases and remixes on Shadow Child and Kry Wolf’s Food Music, OWSLA/NestIV, Hot N Heavy, Main Course, No Brainer Records and Perfect Driver Records; most notably having his remix of Aaron Snapes’s “Whatcha Wanna Do” featured in Claude Vonstroke’s recent Essential Mix on BBC Radio 1. Now into 2014, Mark is preparing to release his next EP,"Mortem" on Kry Wolf's label, Sounds of Sumo, this June.
