After more than three years of brainstorming, experimenting and collaborating, DJ Nu-Mark’s debut solo album Broken Sunlight is finally available. Featuring guests including Bumpy Knuckles, Large Professor, J-Live, Aloe Blacc, Charles Bradley, Quantic, A-Skillz and more, Broken Sunlight showcases DJ Nu-Mark’s love of hip-hop, funk and cumbia.

Included with the release is “Nu-Conduit” a 50-minute behind-the-scenes look of Nu-Mark’s life on the road and in the studio, including the making of Broken Sunlight, performances across the globe and his critically acclaimed “Toy Set” live performance.

“A lot of things in my life were broken. My group broke up, my long term relationship broke up, the music industry and economy seemed to be broken. So it was time for me to take a break,” Nu-Mark explains. “And that’s where the title of the record stems from. It’s not so much I’m broken. I’m moving towards the sunlight these days. It’s more like a tale of perseverance and forging ahead through difficult times.”
