Release Notes:
www.ministryofsound.com/sessions
Ministry Of Sound proudly presents Sessions - Mark FarinaÆs first ever mix album
for the pioneering UK label. Mark Farina is yet another renowned figure of
inspiration for the acclaimed Sessions series which has seen releases from Josh
Wink, Steve Angello and DJ Sneak earlier this year. One of AmericaÆs most
revered DJs, Mark has pulled all the stops out for this one with nearly 40
tracks of absolute jackinÆ house madness!
Mark Farina has been a figurehead of the US house scene for over 15 years, first
cutting his teeth in the now legendary Chicago/Detroit scene in the late
eighties. Working closely with such luminaries as Derrick Carter, Kevin
Saunderson and Chris Nazuka, Mark utilized his tight connections and signed to
KMS Records in Æ89 under the Symbols & Instruments moniker and produced a
landmark track called æMoodÆ û the first ambient house track ever made. From
there he went on to pioneer the Mushroom Jazz genre in San Francisco,
championing a more mellow style of jazzy house and early hip-hop that soon
became an international sensation. In 2003, with 4 Mushroom Jazz and 4 Chicago
house DJ mixed compilations along with numerous singles already under his belt,
Mark released his debut artist album Air Farina to widespread critical acclaim.
Mark's remix skills are also highly in demand from top labels such as Verve and
Classic. Farina has now sold well over 100,000 albums worldwide.
For the Sessions series Mark decided to show his full range of jackinÆ beats and
the result is a master class in mixing, seamlessly taking the mix up and down,
combining deep vocals with rolling drum rhythms and upfront electronics, but
maintaining a classic house backbone.
Mark will be doing a full world-tour to promote this release, which sees him
stopping off in Europe, Australia, Asia and of course America.
