From the shimmering hook of 'Cold in California' to the wide open energy of 'Sweet Dreams', Marcus Layton’s sound is built for connection - music that feels both personal and massive. His remixes for artists like Rihanna, A$AP Rocky, and Gorillaz have become staples in clubs and playlists, redefining how pop and electronic music collide.

His breakout hit 'Wrap Me In Plastic' became a global cultural moment, reaching over two billion streams in China alone and igniting one of the biggest viral waves in TikTok history. The song crossed borders and platforms, earned multi-platinum status, and placed Marcus among the most impactful producers of his generation. It also reached #84 on Billboard and Google’s Top 100 Most Hummed Songs Worldwide.

On stage, Marcus brings the same emotional clarity to the world’s biggest rooms. From Lollapalooza to SonneMondSterne, his live sets blend precision with spontaneity, built for movement and shared moments. Based in Berlin, he creates in a studio that feels more like a laboratory than a factory. His music reflects a unique duality: grounded yet expansive, introspective yet made for crowds.

Recently, Marcus stepped back to explore new directions and refine his sound. A bold new chapter is emerging genre-blurring productions, cinematic storytelling, and fresh emotional depth. In 2026 his upcoming work promises electronic music that surprises, connects, and feels human, driven by curiosity rather than formulas.
