Musical career[]

Coming from a musical family, with his sister also being a DJ, he has been working with music since a child. The Dutch DJ achieved his first residency at the age of 16 years old, where he gained experience in the European club scene.[6] At the age of 17 years old, he was performing internationally, across Europe and soon later around the world.[7] His first big release occurred on the 30th of December 2013 when his single "Riser"[8] on Afrojack’s Wall Recordings achieved a top ten slot in Beatport’s top 100 chart.[9] This track gained him international exposure. Afterwards he collaborated with Laidback Luke, which led to the release of "We're Forever" and "Tell Me That You Love Me".[10][11]

In July 2015, he collaborated with Benny Benassi on "Who I Am" featuring Christian Burns, which was released on Ultra Music.[12] Between 2011 and 2016 he was the resident DJ for Thursday nights in Amsterdam’s nightclub Escape.[13] He also was requested six times to remix work of the Grammy Award-winning producer, Zedd, which led to remixes of “Find You”, “I Want You To Know with Selena Gomez”, “The Middle”, “Happy Now”, “Good Thing” and “Funny”.[14] Later, he joined Zedd's True Colors Tour & Orbit Tour.[15][16]

In 2017, he teamed up with Yves V and released their single "Blow" on Spinnin' Records.[17] Following this, Marc released his single "Thunder" on Steve Angello’s label Size Records.[18] In September 2017, Marc played the closing slot as headliner on the Ultra Music Festival in Bali, Indonesia.[19] In 2019 he released a cover of Blue (Da Ba Dee) from Eiffel65 named "All The Time".[20]

In 2020 he released his collaboration with Fedde Le Grand named "To The Top".[21] and released his single “Losing Focus” on Axwell's label Axtone Records (November 6, 2020).[22] In 2021, he released "Dancing Alone" on Universal Music Group.[23] Following this, he released his collaboration with Afrojack named "Start Over Again".[24]
