it's a freak show for your ears

Somatoast has become a quintessential name in the world of psychedelic bass music without ever having latched on to the label. Mark’s sound is diverse and ever-evolving. Ranging from psybient downtempo to glitchy bangers, he never settles for stagnation among any one style or tempo. Yet, each song is distinctly his. Such a concoction welcomes experimentation and emotion on the dance floor both in the music and the listener— ushering a fresh and unique take on electronic music and the sound system experience.

Somatoast’s album ‘Creation is Creation’ clocked a combined 300,000 plays within the first month of release. Across multiple albums, he has sold over 2000 vinyl records and counting, often selling out the pressings within a day or two. Somatoast’s tour history expands internationally, including plays in Australia, Mexico, Israel and Canada.
