MARK McCABE

Mark McCabe is an Irish Dance Music Icon. His single “Maniac 2000” marks a moment in time and has long achieved cult status, he put the “Oggy” into Irish Dance music.

Released over 20 years ago, the single reached Number One in the Irish Charts and stayed there for ten weeks, in fact it’s still the second biggest selling record in Ireland ever. This was only the start for Mark though, he has since had a thriving musical career both as an artist and on radio. He was signed with New York tribal house legends Twisted Records and remixed songs for some of the world’s biggest artists, most recently remixing Gavin James’ “Nervous”, along with releasing music under other aliases. He established himself as a DJ on pirate radio early in his career and he since blossomed in this side of his career too, highlights include editing RTE’S alternative station 2XM and becoming Director of Music and Sound at RTE 2FM. Highly sought after as a live performer Mark has travelled the world playing to fervent crowds including a jam packed set at Electric Picnic, that was the highlight of the weekend for many. It is not just in Ireland he is revered, he’s in demand all over the globe from Abu Dhabi to Sydney and regularly packs out venues. This to all intents and purposes is Mark’s prime time, but we’re sure the best is yet to come!
