Please tell our readers who you are and what you do?
My name is Mark Jordan. I am a dj and EDM music producer from Italy with passion for music since childhood, born in Tropea, Calabria.
Raised around the music. The first instruments i used were the guitar, the piano but much more the drums. At 10 years old I started to learn the drums with a teacher for 3 years. Then i discovered the passion for electronic music.
My sound is sometimes characterized by influences of chiptune/ bigroom house or different styles put together to create a unique sound. Always experimenting with new styles.
It all depends on the "theme of the song". ethnic, 8-bit ecc. to create a "story" around the song.
number 1 on the ReverbNation EDM charts for TROPEA, IT.

What was the biggest mistake you made when you started making music and what would be the number one tip you could give to a newcomer musician?
My biggest mistake was forcing me to do and finish something .
i never finished a song that way.
The tip that i can give at new artists
Is to do anything without haste.
Never rush because it has no sense. Just try to be positive and relaxed. I left too many songs unfinished because i was doing it in a not producting way .
