Mark Archer is the driving force and the man behind the mask of cheeky old skool rave outfit Altern 8. Inspired to buy some musical equipment by the Electro sounds he had discovered at a young age, Mark had the right pieces of kit and the knowledge to start soundtracking the early acid house explosion. Quickly getting signed to a label under the strength of his Detroit techno inspired Nexus 21 project, Mark and producing partner Chris Peat created Altern 8 to cater for the more ravey sounds that they were enjoying at clubs and events around the country. Wanting to keep themselves anonymous under heavy boiler suits and masks, the duo went on to become icons of the scene and Mark’s sets that pay homage to that heady era continue to fill dancefloors to this day.
