Marc Kinchen is a long player in the dance game
Marc Kinchen, aka DJ and producer MK, has seen empires rise and fall. The 44-year-old began his career in the early 1990s — deep geological time by music industry standards. All has changed utterly across intervening decades.
“Back in the day you would DJ to promote yourself — you wanted to get hired to do remixes and produce,” says Kinchen from his home in Los Angeles. “Nowadays you produce and do remixes in the hope of getting hired as a DJ. It’s basically the opposite of how it used to be.”
