K90: Red Snapper, Urban Anthems & 25 Years of Hard Trance

This week on Hardhouse History, Paul Glazby sits down with one of the most distinctive names to emerge from the UK hard trance scene, K90, aka Mark Doggett, for a journey through more than 25 years of music, clubs, live performances and an ever-evolving creative career.K90's route into electronic music was anything but planned. A mate losing his job, a Commodore Amiga and a free music-making program eventually led to a four-track hardcore EP being signed to Kickin' Records within six months. From there came years of learning, experimenting and doing whatever work was necessary to fund the dream.Mark takes Paul inside the evolution of the K90 sound, from his early love of electronic music and The Prodigy through acid trance and ultimately the records that would define his career.And, of course, they talk Red Snapper.Mark reveals the brilliant story behind one of hard trance's most enduring anthems, including how a record label mix-up meant the track we all know as Red Snapper was actually supposed to be called Genetic. Even more remarkably, it wasn't originally considered the lead track. Twenty-five years later, people are still requesting it in his sets.The conversation also dives into K90 Live, his love for Frantic and KOKO, Daedalus Records and the career-defining Urban Anthems, featuring tracks including Deliverance, Red Snapper, Chemical Love and Breathe. Mark also drops a tantalising hint about a huge project being created for the album's 25th anniversary.But K90's story didn't stop on the dancefloor.Today, Mark's career also includes composing orchestral music for film and television, including work heard on the BBC and MasterChef. He explains how he moved into scoring, writing to picture, working with live musicians and why sometimes the most powerful piece of music in a film is no music at all.From underground raves to orchestral strings, this is the story of an artist who has never stopped evolving.This is K90.
