DJ Nark (Bottom Forty, Massive)
Nark, aka Kevin Kauer, founder of Bottom Forty and Nark Magazine, has devoted his life to dance music and club culture. Nark, also known as Kevin Kauer or KK, is a pivotal figure in the dance music and queer scenes of the Pacific Northwest.
As the head of Bottom Forty Records as well as owner, booker, and lead resident at Massive Club in Seattle, Nark has spent nearly two decades shaping nightlife and culture in Seattle into a flourishing and creative community. Massive, which opened in late 2023, stands as a modern cultural and dance music hub in Seattle. Additionally, Nark co-runs Young Hearts alongside artist Simon Malvaez, a cross-generational event in San Francisco that reintroduces classic disco to new audiences while championing queer, trans and POC communities in a traditionally less diverse arena.
Beyond the music, Nark is a passionate advocate for queer rights. Recently, he played a key role in passing Washington State's Bill 6105, which decriminalized queer bodies, introduced liquor to strip clubs, and secured workers' rights for entertainers, fundamentally transforming the state's nightlife landscape forever.
As a DJ his sound is rooted in analog warmth but remains a flurry of diversity bouncing between classic disco, acid house, techno and back again. As a producer and remixer, Nark has released on labels such as NEIN, 2MR, Soulclap, Mr Intl and more.
