BIO

Hey there! I’m Mark Hardy, a DJ & Music Producer on the Olympic Peninsula. For the past several years I have thrown events in the beautiful Pacific Northwest. I am grateful to work with a talented & creative crew. We appreciate the support of our seaside arts community and the lineage of events from which we have grown.

I believe in tasteful and intentional curation. The core elements of a dance party include high quality sound, good people, and a location which exists beyond the routine. With enough intention, the spirit of the event comes alive. Every element - from decor, immersive activities, interdisciplinary performances, the layout and flow of the event - even the artwork and rollout, play an important role in the energetic world we are creating. I strive for every one of my events to develop on the lessons of the prior, and they have continued to grow.

In addition to organizing happenings, I have been on a personal quest to master the art of music production. Along the way, I’ve learned from some amazing teachers. My tracks and sound follow in the style of my DJ sets: high energy songs, with influences both alien and familiar, which create an unforgettable and lifechanging experience on the dancefloor. I believe that music and our events have the power to bring people together, create new connections, and evoke positive change. That’s what I strive to achieve.

I’m truly humbled by the support I’ve received thus far. I’m excited about what the future holds. I invite you to join me on my artist’s journey, as I explore the realms of connection, music and memory.
