Born and raised in Livorno in 1985, 5 years ago Marco Effe decided to swap the warm Mediterranean climate to reside in the industry honeypot, Berlin. The Italian is considered to be one of the most promising talents surfacing. Next to no time at all, Marco has transformed his career, utilizing a global stage to achieve world-wide recognition.
In 2007 Marco began to compose his own music and immediately felt a burning desire to publish his first release “Wet June EP," released in November 2008.
Following on from the rich success of his debut release, Marco continues to never look back, never quite satisfied with his work, hotly pursuing perfection. Determined to further his collaboration work, together with the established label Big City Beats (Frankfurt) Marco’s talent was truly unveiled to the world with his career up and firing.
2010 saw another release of “Malaysia/Muar EP” (one of his EP’s numerously played by Richie Hawtin in that year) once again making a hugely influential impact on the entire global club scene. Such a distinctive mark left a strong impression, landing himself on Break New Soil, Gregor Tresher’s marvelous label. This allowed him to get in touch with Tresher´s booking agency, enabling him to become a member of their internationally star studded family affairs roster.
Marco Effe moved to Berlin in 2011 and a year later he releases “Jellied Eels” on Cocoon’s Dots & Pearls 2” It’s easy to hear why this has been sitting in the sets of Sven Väth and Luciano for some time. Marco Effe is also part of “Raw Verse” a new alias he uses to produce special tracks receiving recognition worldwide. Marco is by now without a doubt a young and extremely ambitious artist, who can already put a check mark behind most of the top ranking events and clubs in Europe, such as the Watergate Berlin, Time Warp Italy, Cocoon Club Frankfurt, Studio 80 Amsterdam, Sankeys Manchester, Harry Klein Munich, and many more. The high-class labels such as Break New Soil, Cécille, Sci+Tec, Tronic, Cocoon Recordings are appropriate for all his latest releases.
