The debut release on Electrik Playground comes courtesy of northern wonderkid Mark Maitland. Mark’s recent tunes have caught the attention of some major players as diverse as Carl Cox, Krafty Kuts and The Utah Saints. The Utahs were so impressed with his music, they asked him to work closely alongside them co writing and engineering some of their new productions, including remixing the new Girls Aloud single "Loving Kind". They have since tipped Mark to be the next big thing in 2009.

Taking time away from engineering, Mark has produced 2 original tracks which truly show his musical diversity. First up is “Lazy Monday” - a peak time record with a subtle yet hypnotic riff that definitely crosses musical boundaries.

Next up is “Woodpecker” - a dubby, twisted techno bomb with deep bass and delay driven riff patterns all knitted together with clever percussion and tight rising LFOs. A real dance floor destroyer!

Two very different records both of a very high quality and staying power guaranteed to move any dancefloor.
