I WRITE MUSIC TO HELP ME WITH MY ANXITIES

For over a decade, MaRLo has been one of the most commanding forces in dance music — a producer, performer, and visionary whose sound has ignited the world’s biggest festivals and arenas.
Voted into the DJ Mag Top 100 DJs five times, MaRLo has built a dedicated global following through monumental releases such as “Lighter Than Air” (ASOT Tune of the Year) and collaborations with artists as diverse as Armin van Buuren and Will Sparks, alongside countless main-stage anthems that define his explosive style.
Beyond his studio output, MaRLo has created his own phenomenon — ALTITUDE, a hard-ticket MaRLo concert series that has evolved into a global brand and rite of passage for fans. In 2024, ALTITUDE Malaysia drew a massive 16,000 fans, while ALTITUDE Melbourne 2025 packed in 14,000 attendees. In total more than 50,000 people experience ALTITUDE every year.
Internationally, MaRLo’s vision continues to expand. In 2024 he hosted the ALTITUDE Stage at Djakarta Warehouse Project (DWP), one of Asia’s largest festivals — a landmark moment that solidified ALTITUDE’s global presence. And in December 2025, the journey ascends again as MaRLo brings the ALTITUDE Stage to Creamfields Thailand, marking the brand’s official debut under the Creamfields banner.
Not content to stay in one lane, MaRLo also launched his hardstyle alias – V3NOM, showcasing a darker, more aggressive side. The debut single dropped on Timmy Trumpet’s SINPHONY label (Spinnin’ Records), followed by a collaboration with Se3k on Dutch Master Works (Showtek’s label) — both earning widespread support across the harder scene and festival stages alike.
With past performances spanning Tomorrowland, Ultra Music Festival, EDC, Creamfields, Parookaville, Airbeat One, Transmission, and A State of Trance, MaRLo continues to headline the world’s most prestigious stages. Through his label REACHING ALTITUDE and ALTITUDE RADIO, he remains a driving force in shaping the next generation of electronic music.
Always armed with fresh ideas, boundary-breaking music, and a vision that fuses art and energy, MaRLo isn’t just playing the main stage — he’s building his own. The ascent continues.

Grammy nominated producer, DJ and radio host.
