Biography edit · view history
Mark started in the games industry in 1992, with Mindscape. His first title was Wing Commander Amiga and continued to write music and design sound effects for their Amiga, SNES and PC titles. He stayed with Mindscape for 5 years before being made redundant, and went freelance to write the music for the Playstation port of Duke Nukem.
After this, in 1997, he took a position with Bullfrog / Electronic Arts and wrote the music for a number of AAA titles, then moving to a sound design and lead role. In 2003 he left to tour with a band.
The touring gig fell through, and after a number of contract jobs Mark moved to Scotland for a couple of years working on a number of games for Visual Science, all of which were cancelled when the company went into administration in 2006. Mark then went full circle and moved back to Electronic Arts. 6 months later, EA announced the closure of the Warrington studio. He then moved to Codemasters, in 2007, working on sound design for their racing titles before going freelance in 2017.
He is currently working on a number of projects including BeamNG.drive.
