Career
In an interview with StyleCaster, Marco credited his growing up in a musical household for first triggering a musical interest. He continues that when 'he was about 13' his best friend introduced him to turntables and scratching records was something he wanted to do 'probably more than anything else [he] did'. At the age of 18, Marco started interning at Mark Ronson's now-defunct Allido Records where he was introduced to DJ AM.
