Dirty Disco is a DJ duo consisting of Houston-native Mark De Lange and Londoner JD Arnold.[1][2]
Members
JD Arnold started DJ-ing during the disco era in the 1970s in the United Kingdom where he has worked at Heaven, a nightclub in London. He was invited for a visit to the United States by a friend in 1981, and moved there because he enjoyed the environment. De Lange (DJ Mark D) began DJ-ing in 1984 and has been the resident of Roxy, Club Pacific Street, Rich's, XM Satellite Radio (ch 81 BPM) and 104.1 KRBE radio. He now owns and operates nightclub/bar venues throughout Houston. The duo soon collaborated and started a record label with the same name – Dirty Disco.[1] They have been hired on numerous remix projects including Casablanca's "Enough Is Enough 2017" Donna Summer & Barbra Streisand, Diana Ross's "Upside Down/Coming Out" 2018 mashup along with other artists like Enrique Iglesias, The Trash Mermaids, U2, Paris Hilton, GusGus, Olivia Holt, Janet Jackson, KC & The Sunshine Band and others. To date, Dirty Disco has had numerous Billboard #1 dance singles on projects they were hired on and have numerous Billboard top 5 singles on their proprietary record label Dirty Disco Music (DDM). They continue to produce dance singles at a record pace, sometimes a track a week. Both De Lange and Arnold were Billboard reporting DJs.
