For the techno fans.

Has anyone ever listened to or seen Mark Farina? A brief SoundCloud skim showed me his style is labeled “mushroom jazz” and sounded pretty cool and chill

This just got announced and people seemed pretty stoked about it

I think I recall @ass mentioning Mark Farina a time or two

I’m a big fan of the Mushroom jazz compilation albums he puts together. Eight is my favorite.

I have. I’m sure @PEN1S_ISLAND has seen him and I know I got video from @jachapman from a Farina party once.

Probably my most seen non-local DJ. The mushroom jazz thing is a series of downtempo recordings. At parties, he’s playing house music sets unless otherwise stated. It’s like if Sound Tribe is doing a special set, they label it so everyone knows.

I love his house sets. Definitely go, @WhoDatVols . He plays some stuff I don’t care for (certain large labels) but it’s all done tastefully sandwiched between classic house, deep house, new shit, whatever. Dude is awesome.

Were you there when OL opened for him in AVL like 6-7 years ago and Farina played Franklin’s Tower?

I’m listening to this again. He covers so much territory. Don’t worry about genres. It’s all psychedelic dance music.

What DaddyJack said. You should go @WhoDatVols One of the first shows I saw here in Austin was a co headline show with him and Nightmares on wax. That shit was dope.

I dont remember the Franklins Tower, but maybe lol. Have seen them together.

Also saw Farina open for a jamband at Pisgah. Maybe it was Tribe?

I could/would see that.

That show and the Cut Chemist/Dj Shadow co headline show were soooooo buttery. Vibes were thiccc

I didn’t see the open to close part. I wouldn’t be surprised if he does warm up with some mushroom jazz.

Before I had a med card in Portland I met this stripper at Mark Farina on Halloween in 2013 who plugged me into some blow that night. Ended up getting her to deliver me hash oil for a while until I moved down to Newport Beach that next summer. Definitely go Mark Farina is a legend brah.

This was my favorite music thing I attended last year. Vibes were high.

Currently in Outrun mode but like 30 minutes ago we were on some funk stuff.

Is it on 420??

Just threw on an old Magic Tape by Magician.

I remember seeing him when he was a part of Aeroplane at Bisco Inferno in 2010 iirc. Shit was fire never seen Red Rocks get down like that day. Pretty sure it was the same bill with the Crystal Method and Booka Shade.
