Born in Lakenheath, United Kingdom, Marcus “Ritmo” Figueroa had begun his musical ventures at 16. Though his residence has briefly included Tennessee and Arizona, Marcus has been a native to California since the age of 3 where Los Angeles is home. 

As a self taught entity, Marcus held and continues to hold the practice of discipline in his foresight at all times to absorb all he can about the craft. With growth through knowledge he began dialing in his own unique tone and style. Experimenting in all but finding his niche in the indie hard rock genre, Marcus feels most connected and grounded expressing himself through the freedom of rock, where intense and emotional perspectives reside within. 

Through the road of an impactful life among an undeniable bleeding passion, his instrumental music possesses an alluring pull in which his audience becomes enthralled. In the midst of painting their own pineal portraits and connecting with experiences, Marcus’ audience begins to understand the soul and passion that is imprinted through his work. 

Up and coming, Marcus continues to defy any and all barriers that arise purely through will and passionate determination. With a love and admiration of all individuals who pursue and support all forms of art, Marcus remains persistent with all doors open to contribution, collaboration and most importantly continuing to build his legacy to forever thrive through his craft.

***NOW SEEKING A LEAD SINGER!!***

Enso Anima is the sound you hear between your ears when no one else is around. Enso Anima is the reason the rays of a setting sun comfort you into sleep, while the rays of it rising stir you to wake. Enso Anima is the mountain you pass every day on your commute and have always dreamed of climbing. Enso Anima is the house at the end of the dead end street with flaking shutters and knobbly clumps of weeds in the yard and a giant hole in the roof and an even bigger, entirely inexplicable allure. Enso Anima is flipping the fuck out in your best friend’s room to some album you two share, some little slice of heaven on earth that is not quite the same unless it is shared thus.

Enso Anima is digging your fingernails into your cheeks and becoming intoxicated by the smell. Enso Anima is busting the faces of the dozens of sweaty bodies in the mosh pit around you and being entranced by the potency and harmony of violence and love. Enso Anima is sitting out in front of your ex’s house for hours, imagining burning it to the ground, and finally blowing a sadistic kiss and laughing all the way home, your monster fed and tucked away. Enso Anima is eating an entire lemon in six bites, skin and all. Enso Anima is climbing a tree in a lighting storm, just to feel death breathing down your neck. Enso Anima is the door or window or manhole or gate or safe lock or fire escape that you know is silently begging for you to break and enter. 

Enso Anima is the kiss with a little bit of bite, the shovelful of earth thrown onto a grave or a newly planted tree. Enso Anima is watching the world end and having a hand to hold. Enso Anima is the secret you keep in a part of yourself so deep you cannot even make sense of it, the cross that you bear that gives you strength because it lets you know you have the right to live. Enso Anima is watching someone cry and knowing you’re going to love them forever and a day.

The universe wants to be noticed.
