Those looking for a good dance party need look no further than the Ritz this Friday, when producer Mark Farina comes to town. Farina is known for being the creator of “Mushroom Jazz,” which mixes West Coast jazz production with East Coast hip-hop beats for a uniquely timeless sound. Farina found his passion for DJing at only 16, when he began performing at underage clubs in Chicago like the famous Medusa’s, where he made a name for himself for his unique style of downtempo and house music. These days, he’s widely regarded as a master of his craft.
