Mark MacLeod comes from a long line of
musical talent. He was part of the original
rave scene in Toronto and a regular resident
in many of Montreal’s best house music
clubs. This is when he began to move to the
deeper side of electronic music.
Over the years Mark has refined his sound:
Mark doesn’t like the obvious ‘hands in the
air’ hit. That’s too easy. Instead, Mark prefers
to build the audience up more slowly. A
subtle, never ending simmer.
For Mark, the rhythm and bass line are the
most important elements in a track. His
productions range from deep house to the
deeper sides of progressive house.
Mark runs @deepdownelectronicmusic, a
label focused on the deeper sides of house,
progressive and downtempo.
