Mark Jones is one of those renaissance men you can’t help but admire — he’s put in thousands of hours to his craft, dirtying his hands in so many different kinds of art (even forming a band, Perfect Day, after finishing art college and putting in his time behind another record label). Soon he was able to parlay his administrative and creative experience in various labels the label he founded, Wall of Sound, has been kicking around for the past 15 years, and recently resurrected the career of Grace Jones. His label is definitely geared more towards the electronica side of things, but the artists on WOS are diverse in their respective styles of spinning and mixing. Among them: The Shortwave Sound and Norwegian electronic gods Royksopp. Right now you can go to Red Bull Music Academy and get a listen of the various artists he’s brought on board Wall of Sound.
