Mark Wise

New Jersey's Mark Wise brings no pretensions — a DJ who's part of the party, and a producer crafting music people never knew they wanted. His heavy techno sound fuses metal-rooted guitars with potent drum programming for something raw, direct, and danceable. Wise's musical journey began in childhood with percussion, school concert band, and a rock band with friends, before DJing took over at college parties and guitar entered the mix in his 20s. That range — rock, industrial, techno-metal, contemporary techno, even pop — shapes his singular style. He's climbed the iTunes Electronic charts worldwide and scored Beatport hits across driving, hard, raw, melodic, and hypnotic styles. His most iconic release, 'The Fire Within,' features live guitar and vocals that showcase his heavy metal techno sound at its fullest. Support has come from tastemakers like Carl Cox, Vendex, Juliet Fox, Brennen Grey, Nakadia, and Fjaak. Serious about the sound, but never too serious to have fun — Mark Wise keeps his dance floors full of energy, and might even step out from the booth to join the crowd. However his sound evolves next, it's guaranteed to leave a mark. Bookings/management: Liam Peete, faceoff@outlook.it
