Mark E. Quark has always been one of the best DJs in Southern California. He made a name for himself by spinning the amazing sunrise set at the first "Narnia" party 2 years ago and ever since then he has had a difficult time shaking the ambient/trance/IDM pigeon hole that he got put into, but he does play that style so well. It's surprising that you think of him as a house DJ. Tho I've heard him spin house, Mark along with a handful of others like Eli Star are some of the few DJs in SoCal that have been playing IDMish music for a while. if you make it out to california, you can catch him almost every weekend spinning in San Diego.
