About Marko

A San Diego DJ with a European approach to nightlife

Marko Drešević is an established San Diego DJ originally from Serbia, bringing a distinctly European approach to nightlife wherever he performs.

Intensely passionate about deejaying, Marko comes alive behind the decks. His musical journey can move effortlessly from laid-back, sexy lounge sounds à la Buddha-Bar, to magnetic house infused with soulful, mellifluous vocals, and all the way into deep-bass underground tech house… music you don’t just hear, but feel wrap around you and pull your hands into the air.

Marko’s greatest strength is his ability to read the room and feed the crowd in real time. He doesn’t simply play music for an audience; he responds to it, shaping the energy as it unfolds. As the night builds, the separation between DJ and crowd begins to disappear — until there is no performer and no audience, just one vast organism, dancing itself awake.

A note from Marko

Why do we dance?

Why do we dance… do we get on the floor to look past our differences, forget our troubles, or are we dancing to please ourselves, or are we trying to please others? When you get on the floor are you showing off, or are you just in awe listening to the bass and the speakers, a pleasure victim of that internal drum that keeps you moving… why do we dance?

  • We dance because we are magically connected to each other biologically, to the Earth chemically, and to the Universe atomically.
  • We dance because all of us have won the cosmic lottery simply by being alive.
  • We dance while we have a chance.
  • We dance because it is all good when we fly free, lost in sound and time.
  • We dance because dancers only think positive thoughts.
  • We dance because we are the force for good in the world.
