★★★★★ Superstar DJ Mark Farina Air Farina Asia Tour 2004 ★★★★★


Mark Farina는 Derrick Carter등과 함께 하우스음악에서 절대적 존재중 한명이다.

그는 자신의 직업인 DJ를 일컬어 현대의 방랑 음유시인 정도로 표현한다.
그의 음악적 표현력은 그 다양함에 실로 놀라지 않을 수 없다. 쟝르의 벽을 넘나드는 그의 음악은
단순히 그의 음악이 하우스만을 표현하는 것이 아니란 것을 알수가 있다

초창기는 Mark Farina는 디트로이트 테크노에 심취해 있었다. 하지만 그는 곧 자신만의
음악적 색채를 띄는 Mushroom Jazz를 만들어 낸다. Acid Jazz와 Dubby House적인 요소
그리고 Breaks, Downtempo적인 요소를 농축 시켜 놓은 듯한 Mushroom Jazz는 그를
순식간에 엄청난 위치에 올려 놓았다. 그의 음악으로 처음 시작한 파티에 100여명 정도로
모여든 관중은 곧 천여명에 가까운 숫자를 늘어났고 그는 곧 세계 방방곡곡을 돌며
수백여번이 넘는 쇼를 치루어 냈다. 때때로 그는 Mushroom Jazz 스타일의 음악과
시카고 하우스 샌프란시스코 하우스 스타일의 음악을 각기 다른 두 룸(Room)에서 장장 8시간에
걸쳐 틀며 그를 보기 위해 모여든 관중들을 흥분과 광란의 도가니로 몰아 넣었다.

그는 명실 공히 세계 최고의 디제이중의 한명이 틀림없다. Carl Cox, Derrick Carter,등등의
슈퍼스타 디제이 대열에 나란히 존재하는 그는 그럼에도 불구하고 자신은 단순히 음악을 좋아하는
평범한 사람이라고 겸손히 말한다.

그의 천진난만해 보이는 얼굴 뒤에 숨겨진 그의 음악에 대한 열정은 왜 그가 슈퍼스타 디제이
일수 밖에 없는가를 알게 해줄 것이다.

이번 그의 한국방문은 정말 뜻 깊은 행사가 될 것이다. Air Farina의 기장으로서 Mark Farina는
여러분을 그의 멋지고 감각적인 음악 속으로 환상적인 비행을 함께 할 것이다.
안전벨트는 풀어 버리고 거치장스러운 좌석도 뜯어내 버리고 자신의 몸을 마치 하늘에 떠있는
듯하게 내던져 보자.

DJ Mark Farina Biography

“I look at my job as a modern day traveling minstrel, to bring new music to as many places as I can, and expose obscure records that, otherwise, might go hidden.” While Mark Farina may be able to sum up his job description in a sentence, there is much more to be written.

Mark developed his musical tastes in Chicago ? listening to house music on the radio, living in one of the country’s most primordial breeding grounds for house. Around ’88, while record shopping at Imports, Etc., he met Derrick Carter and a friendship began. “I just ended up there between classes, I ended up buying his picks. He steered me toward the cutting edge House producers of the time.”

“I started playing when I lived with my parents and didn’t have any bills to pay so I could just buy records. My intentions were never to just make money, it’s nice, but it’s kind of turned into a job by accident - it was a hobby that turned into a job.”

Living together and working on tracks together along with Chris Nazuka, they utilized the tight connections between the Detroit and Chicago scenes. Fondly, Mark remembers hanging out listening to Detroit Techno classics - Model 500, Derrick May - eating bologne sandwiches on white bread and drinking Kool-Aid out of a paper cup, prepared by none other than Chef Saunderson himself. In ’89, they signed on Kevin Saunderson’s KMS Records under the Symbols in Instruments moniker and produced a landmark track called “Mood”. “Mood” sold 35,000+ copies in the US and the UK. This record was the first ambient house track ever made and, accordingly, it has taken its position as a classic. The same year, The Face magazine published their year end Top 50 with “Mood” ranking above pop anthems by Dee-Lite and The Pet Shop Boys.

“I used to do mixes with Derrick on the radio at Northwestern, we’d make it at the house and listen to it on the lake where they filmed ‘Risky Business’. We would drive around and listen 89.3 WNUR; they had a policy, guest DJs didn’t have to be students.” Eventually, the University changed their policy and only students were allowed to DJ.

When Farina first started wandering from his passion for the purist forms of House into what grew into one of his trademark styles, Mushroom Jazz, he was playing the main room in a club in Chicago and got demoted to the B-room after playing too many Martin Luther King Jr. samples. Mark experimented with a deeper style, dropping De La Soul, disco classics and other stuff that wasn’t being played in the main room. However, in 1992, Mark found a welcome place for his collection of downtempo tunes accompanied

by a small run of mix tapes entitled “Mushroom Jazz”. Originally launched as a cassette series, the Mushroom Jazz tapes grew from the first Chicago run of 50 copies each…on to the next stage, where 500 copies of several volumes were easily distributed and sought after. As the Acid Jazz boom began, he perfected his sound and fused the newest tracks from the West Coast’s jazzy, organic producers with the more urban sounds he had championed in Chicago. While the predominant musical force in SF was still dark, dubby House and Wicked-style Breaks, the city embraced the downtempo movement with a healthy bunch of live bands and DJs generating the tunes.

Mark Farina, along with then partner, and manager, Patty Ryan-Smith, created the now legendary weekly club in San Francisco, Mushroom Jazz, in 1992. Every Monday night the crowd slowly germinated ? from 100 for the first few months to 600-700 two years later. As time passed, Farina and Patty put their energies into another project, the first Mushroom Jazz interactive CD-ROM for Om Records. After a three year run, where the club had established a fanatical, cult-like following for Farina and the Mushroom Jazz sound, the club closed its doors and transformed into a CD series and accompanying tours.

Since 1989, Mark Farina has been traveling the globe performing at literally hundreds of shows a year, sometimes DJing both of his preferred styles in two different rooms at the same party. At other events, he’s been known to play extended sets that lasted over eight hours. In his House sets, Mark is known for his uniquely effortless journeys on the jazzy side of Chicago House, mixed up San Fran style.

This wandering record minstrel has played to incredible crowds all over the globe. Consistently drawing new fans to his style of chunky-funky rhythms and deep underground house, Mark plays upwards of 200 shows to over one million (1,000,000) club goers per year. Voted in the top 20 DJ’s in the world by MUZIK and BPM Magazine, his taste making skills continue to turn the heads of seasoned veterans as well as youngsters just getting into the music.

On CD, Mark has recorded both of his dominant musical personalities. His first mix, ‘Mushroom Jazz’ on Om Records, is defined by a hip-hop sub-groove with jazzy, dubby elements in the downtempo range. It was followed by ‘Seasons’, a critically acclaimed House mix. An Imperial Dub mixed CD, a guest slot in the pedigreed ‘United DJs of America’ series, ‘Mushroom Jazz 2’ (Om Records) and ‘San Francisco Sessions, Vol. I’ (Om Records) and Mushroom Jazz 3 (Om Records) to round out the Farina catalog. His past release “Connect” walks the line of San Francisco deeper and the bumpin’ funky house sound of Chicago. In November of 2002, Mark Farina released his much beloved fourth volume of Mushroom Jazz. The past year Mark has been releasing his own productions again, doing remixes for such labels as Silver Network and Classic and releasing tracks on Om and Music For Freaks. His first full-length album of original work, “Air Farina” is scheduled for release on Om in October of 2003.
