Music has always been a part of the life of Dutchman Mark Otten. Coming from a rich musical background, he gets involved in dance music at an early age. At the end of 2003, the first track under Mark’s own name came out; Mark Otten and “Mushroom Therapy”. A beautiful progressive trance track which got released with a remix from none other than Armin van Buuren on the B-side of the vinyl.
For this week’s vlog I sat down with Mark in the Artone Studios in Haarlem, to ask him about the story behind “Mushroom Therapy”. Besides that, you will hear more as well about his job as a coach and of course we spoke about how Mark got involved with Martin Garrix and his work at the STMPD studios. And Mark also shares for the first time ever, why he isn't DJ-ing anymore at the moment.
Enjoy and thanks for watching!
Also make sure to check out my second interview with Mark, in which he tells the story behind the Rio Addicts track "Crossroads"; • The story behind "Rio ...

What is your favorite Mark Otten production / remix?

Mushroom Therapy (Lightscape Mix). One of my top tunes of all time.

All of his early stuff is amazing and in my playlists. My top 3 would be: 3. Mark Otten - So Serene (Menno De Jong's Heading South Dub) 2. Mark Otten ‎- Mushroom Therapy (Lightscape Mix) 1. Mark Otten - Tranquility (Markus Schulz Coldharbour Mix)

It was the AvB remix that made me fall in love with this tune, probably my second fav trance melody of all time and the greatest release on Armind. I'm really hoping for Ashkan Fardost (Envio) interviews someday, i really want the story behind Touched by the sun. Great vid, i was really anticipating this one. :)
@muzikxpress
@muzikxpress 3 года назад
Thank you! And I would love to do an interview with Ashkan about that one, but .... Since this is "just" a hobby for me and since advertising revenu on RU-vid is VERY minimal, I don't have a travel budget for these vlogs. That means I can only do interviews with people based in The Netherlands (where I live) or people that visit The Netherlands for gigs etc (which isn't happening much now due to COVID.....). Ashkan is based in Sweden and he's not really in The Netherlands often (don't think he's DJ-ing anymore either tbh). So for now an interview doesn't look very realistic. I have friends in Sweden, so I would love to do some interviews there one day, but then I definately need a bunch of donations (same as for my Frankfurt trip from 2020), otherwise I'm afraid this won't happen (I'm not a millionaire :P). And just to make sure, don't do Zoom / Skype interviews BTW, all my 100+ interviews are face to face (and I want to keep it that way). So, I would love to do that interview, but I'm afraid it won't happen anytime soon ;-) Thanks for your understanding!

A very nice interview. Very detailed. Good to know Mark's career has progressed well. When he stopped releasing his tracks on Armada, I thought he had left the scene ala VDM. I miss his sounds. Like all the singles and remixes he has released under his name on Armada. M T and Tranquility are my faves. I am glad I got to see him DJ at Lumi 2017. Can't remember if I met him or not.

I was listening to Mushroom Therapy (on Universal Religion vol 1 cd in the car earlier). I was wondering if you'd done an interview with Mark Otten. Then I get home and I see this. Weird! It's such a beautiful track. far more sophisticated than most trancers. He's a profound and intelligent guy. Nice to see some Quested / PMC monitors in his studio.

Zoals altijd weer een ontzettend leuk interview. Ik ken Mark vooral omdat Armin van Buuren hem vroeger veel draaide in zijn sets. Ik wist echter niet dat hij Martin Garrix geholpen heeft. Weer iets nieuws geleerd😀

Thanks for another great interview. Mark Otten is definitely one of my favourite producers. Armin van Buuren introduced me to his Rio Addicts - The Distance track in ASOT 2007 2 CD album, and I loved it. And that bassline in So Serene and melody in Tranquility, in combination with all those layers... good stuff!

Desperately sad to hear about Mark Otten's health issues! My very best wishes to the guy! I was sat at home taping the AvB Essential Mix when I first heard Mushroom Therapy, it genuinely had a profound effect on me. I'd been playing trance and the harder stuff for quite a few years, and then I heard his Lightscape Mix of Mushroom Therapy, then i fell in love with proper progressive, which is still what I play today. I bought the vinyl the first chance I got. I've still got it. And Tranquility, So Serene, and a few of his remixes. I adore his remix of Elevation: Largo too! But Mushroom Therapy is stil my favourite MO track. I'd love to hear the original mix of Mushroom Therapy! I've actually asked Cream of Cream (PL) & Deep Fog to remix it for while, but no luck yet. Anyway, stay happy Mr. Otten!

Thanks Paul! And yes, that was a very personal story, I'm sure it is not easy to share things like that. Mark is great guy, I really hope he can start DJ-ing again one day, fingers crossed! Edit: this is the Artone Studio in Haarlem, located in the same building where Mark has his studio, so this one is not Mark’s studio. But as a location for the interview this was absolutely perfect!

I was disappointed to hear "Tranquility" playing in the background, as that pretty much means it won't get it's own story video. I loved this video anyway, Mark Otten is one of my favourite trance producers for sure.

Sorry, I’m not really looking for suggestions right now and I don't do requests either. Let me explain; I have a loooong interview wish list still, so ideas enough. Since this is "just" a hobby for me and since advertising revenu on RU-vid is VERY minimal, I don't have a travel budget for these vlogs. I can only do interviews with people based in The Netherlands or people that visit The Netherlands for gigs etc (which isn't happening much now due to COVID.....). Soliquid is not on my list (for now). He's based in Hungary and I can't remember seeing him here in The Netherlands, so not very realistic to get him for an interview. And I don't do Zoom / Skype interviews BTW, all my 100+ interviews are face to face (and I want to keep it that way). Thanks for your understanding!

Twan please do an interview with Tiesto featuring his In Search of Sunrise like his remix of Imogen Heap or his ISOS series. It's been 22 years since the first one was released.
@muzikxpress
@muzikxpress 2 года назад
Not gonna happen. He’s not doing interviews related to his trance past. Plus he didn’t produce anything himself, so questions about the production / inspiration etc would be pretty awkward 😂 So I’m not even going to try to get an interview with him, it won’t happen, so not going to waste my time 😉 Oh and I only do interviews about originals, not about remixes or mix compilations. That’s not what my channel is about 😊
