Mark Jopo (aka: Mark Jay) from Liverpool.

Started DJ’ing in 1990, on the back of clubbing in Quadrant Park (Liverpool) and Park Hall (Chorley) when weekends simply rolled one night into another.

He first DJ’d at house parties and club events, in fields and gardens, wherever he could set-up a pair of decks and a PA..!

His first club residency was in ‘The 174 Club’ in Skem, DJ’ing with lots of big names including Mike Knowler, DJ Vertigo and Stu Allen.

Following this he went onto play the bar and club circuit around Liverpool and the North-West for many years.

Mark has been fortunate enough to play and hold residencies in venues such as Republik, AXM Southport, Reminisce, Modo, Arena, Baa Baa, Mood Indigo and the legendary G-Bar; regularly playing with the likes of Dave Graham, John Cotton, Neil James and Dave Booth.

DJs who have inspired him include John Kelly, Andy Carroll, Mike Knowler, Steve Proctor, Carl Cox, Tony de Vit, DJ Vertigo, DJ Whelly, Paul Bleasdale, John Pleased Wimmin, John Cotton (this list goes on…)

These days mark plays various styles of house music ranging from funky, chunky, vocal, piano, techno, trance hard house and of course old Skool.

If it’s chunky funky vocals, piano house or Old Skool, then Trax Radio Friday nights is the place to be.
