Marco V, born Marco Verkuylen, is a modern Dutch DJ. He currently ranks as number 16 on the 2006 DJ Magazine Top 100 DJs List.
Generally considered a tech trance DJ, Marco V was the resident DJ of the "danssalon" in Eindhoven in the Netherlands. After several years of residency, he began to focus on production. Headlining Innercity in Amsterdam 2000 and mixing the Innercity CD of that year was his first breakthrough.
In 2005 he released the critically acclaimed follow-up to his debut "con:fusion" . "200V" (V also to be read as the Roman 5) is a record for every mood.
Marco V is currently working on the follow up of Benjamin Bates' debut album (N.E.V.E.R.L.E.T.A.N.Y.T.H.I.N.G.K.I.L.L.T.H.E.P.L.E.A.S.U.R.E.) which (title: RECYCLOMANIA)was released on May 14, 2007. His Combi:nations III was released on May 22nd and he is currently working on his own new album.
Dutchman Marco V started to spin records at the age of 14, three years before pitch controls were first introduced to turntables. By 1996 Marco was installed as the resident of ‘De Danssalon’, the biggest club in Eindhoven, presenting him with the opportunity to showcase his undoubted talents to the rest of his country.
‘De Danssalon’ soon became the most renowned Friday night in Holland and shortly after Marco had started his residency he met his producing partner Benjamin Bates. Marco and Benjamin began producing tracks together and it was through this artform that Marco was given the opportunity to have his talents acknowledged on the worldwide stage.

Marco V has been known in trance and house music circles for several years. He is known for his inventive, crowd-pleasing, high-energy DJ mixes at some of the world's biggest clubs and events. His production style is recognizable for its uplifting style and constant, hard-kicking drive. His biggest hits are "Godd", "In Charge", "Simulated", "Indicator", which all have a strong, driven sound. Marco V's sound is a mixture between Trance / Progressive / Techno.
Marco V was the resident DJ of the "danssalon" in Eindhoven in the Netherlands, but his productions into the harder side of trance was a contrast of the Club-sound he was DJ-ing in the "danssalon". After several years of residency he focused on his producing and that has led to where he is today. Headlining Innercity in Amsterdam 2000 and mixing the Innercity CD of that year gave him the breakthrough he needed. According to Marco, he doesn't want to be "labeled into a box and plays whatever he likes and thinks that fits this sound".
HUMMMMMMMM THIS SOUNDS SO FAMILAR..:tongue3 "doesn't want to be "labeled into a box and plays whatever he likes and thinks that fits this sound"
