Zouk Genting’s year of indisputable dance continues as Dutch DJ Mark Sixma takes over the decks at the Zouk Genting stage on Saturday, 6 July 2019. So come one and come all to experience the beats and tunes of one of the global dance scene’s luminaries.
Born and raised in the Dutch city of Breda – known as the capital of dance, being the home of Tiësto and Hardwell – Sixma first captured the attention of the dance scene with his song Destination 6 in 2007. Among those enraptured by the tune was legendary DJ Armin van Buuren, who featured it as Tune of the Week on his radio show A State of Trance. Armin then became a major supporter of Sixma, naming his next single Fade 2 Black as Tune of the Week again and featuring Sixma’s tracks in his annual A State of Trance compilation.
Further collaborations with dance stars such as Faruk Sabanci, W&W and KSHMR continued, with Mark Sixma also creating mega hits on his own. His 2013 single Reqium made it to the top of the Beatport trance chart, becoming the biggest trance track of the year and cementing his position as a dance hitmaker. In 2014, his remix of Adagio for Strings once again hit #1 on the Beatport chart, knocked off only by another Sixma tune ‘Falling Back’ – the first time an artist replaced his or her self on the top of the chart and the first time an artist had simultaneously occupied the #1 and #2 spots on the Beatport top trance chart. This reputation has brought him a fierce live following, with Sixma being a regular fixture on global dance music festivals like Creamfields, TomorrowWorld, A State of Trance and Ultra.
So get ready to move into a groovy state of trance with Mark Sixma at Zouk Genting on 6 July 2019. Tickets can be pre-purchased for RM65 at www.zoukgenting.com and for RM75 at the door.
