In this industry, people like Mark Wilkinson are hard to come by. His history reads like a house music bible. Across the globe he’s deejayed in over 65 countries, produced with the world’s greatest music makers, had chart topping success, and shaped half a dozen production monikers along the way, and this is a mere drop in the ocean on his career. Say ‘Mark Wilkinson’ to most people in this business and nine times out of ten you’ll get a story back about a time when they crossed paths with him…
Since the early 90’s, Mark’s recording career has gained at fast pace and today is still as successful as ever.
One of his first projects ‘Problem Kids’ was with Rocky from the infamous Xpress2, which saw the kids releasing their music on labels including Junior Boys Own and Paper Recordings. Mark, now fully smitten by the music teamed up with leg-end house producer Paul Jackson to create the outfit ‘Kidstuff’ whose records went onto be signed by the UK’s biggest house label’s, Defected and Azuli Records.
After a string of releases, Mark felt a platform to release his own tracks and tracks he loved by others, was in need. Keeping with the theme that had developed, Kidology Records was conceived. It was during this time that his most current and probably most popular guise ‘Dab Hands’ was born. Dab Hands has had success for remix duties on Lou Reed’s ‘Satellite Of Love’, which made it into the Top 10 of the UK national charts; with 'Supergood' - a cross over hit on Virgin / Ten Records in 2005, and ‘DYOT’, which was later released on Gusto Records, was an ‘essential tune’ for Radio 1’s Pete Tong.
Mark gave his own name a working in May 2007 by releasing ‘Playground Stuff' on Phonetic Recordings as his first ever release under his own name! But that’s not all, there’s still lots to come from Mark and indeed Dab Hands for the rest of 2007.
Not to rest on his laurels, Mark runs his own party named after his label ‘Kidology’, which takes place all over London including monthly at The Cross, Tabernacle bar in Old Street, and various other venues. Kidology played the bar for Eric Morillo’s Birthday in March 07, where Mark played a five hour set.
I love The house and terrace and so should you, it's the new Cross, it's London's version of Space Ibiza. If you have not been there then more fool you as this is what clubland is about. I believe that the opening of Matter really does matter and North Greenwich and the Dome will become a clubbing mecca to rival the likes of ibiza.... I Shit You Not
if you have not seen it before check out our Party Animal music video that we filmed at the House and terrace, to get a feel for our venue.
AS well what do you think about having 8 days in the week, we could have 3 day weekends and the 8th day will be called Funday....
For tickets for any event held at the House and Terrace call me and I will personaly deliver, I am based in SE London and need excuses to get out on my motorcycle. 07917 365499
