DJ Marcus first got on the decks in 2001 while residing in Austin, TX. He quickly became a regular in the Austin afterhours scene playing 4-6 hour sets. The afterhour's scene begged for dark progressive house and his original favorite labels were Baroque, Fluid, and Hooj Choons.

To this day his favorite mixed set is Deep Dish's GU:021 Moscow.
