★ MARCO DEL HORNO (Rinse FM) ★
Marco Del Horno's musical journey started back when he was just 16 as a young promoter putting on garage nights in his hometown of Croydon with two residents - Ben & Olly.
Fast forward ten years and Marco is a Rinse FM radio presenter, record label boss, director of his own management company, an international DJ and successful record producer. His two residents didn't do too badly either - they changed their names to Benga and Skream. You might have heard of them...
Urban Nerds Mix: Marco Del Horno
Marco's sound is a mix of house, dubstep, garage and UK funky. “I can play techy records next to tribal records next to electro – then move to dubstep. Having DJ’d now for half my life you learn that its all about progression. Whether a club set or radio show, it’ll always start with a groove and work its way up into full jump up tear out.”
Whilst working for Defected Records, as well as creating his own productions and DJing regularly, Marco also launched his weekly radio show on the infamous Rinse FM, where he was able to cultivate his style of playing house, next to funky, next to tropical and dubstep. This is what gave him his sound, literally sucking up everything around him and channeling it on air for 2 hours every week.
Marco's 2010 breakthrough track 'Ho! Riddim' featured the vocals of P Money, and became Radio 1Xtra's "Tune of the week" receiving regular Radio 1 airplay from the likes of Mistajam, Ras Kwame & Toddla T.
Remixes for Jamie Woon, Roska, Crystal Fighters, Scratcha DVA, Crazy Cousinz, Giggs, Last Japan, Jaime George, T Williams & Kelis have helped further boosted his profile, and his mix compilation 'Bullet Train Vol 1' came out last year to rave reviews.
Marco Del Horno is a perfect example of what makes the UK’s dance music scene such an exciting place to be in 2011 – this is the sound of now.
