MC MAGICO

Hailing from Colombia, MC Magico burst onto the UK Latin Urban scene in 2005, recording two singles with inimitable Basement Jaxx and appearing in various club and radio sessions, magazines and festivals including Glastonbury, The Big Chill Festival, and The Secret Garden Party.
He was also featured as a performer on the MTV show "Barrio 19" and his music can be heard far and wide, from the theme tune to Channel 4 hit show 'How to Look Good Naked', American shows such as 'Sweet Sixteen' and 'WWE Smack Down' and the popular computer games ' Battlefield Bad Company 2' and worldwide best seller 'Just Dance 3'.With a plethora of collaborations with internationally renowned Latin music producer Alex Wilson, MC Magico represents the fresh new face of multicultural diversity in the UK.



As Reggaeton peaked in the UK in summer 2005, Magico's talent was in demand. Aside from "Shake up" and "Wheel and Stop", produced by legendary British dance duo Basement Jaxx , Magico also featured as a guest MC on a remix track by Supafly INC (under 2AM Productions) with the massive hit "Lets Get Down" released by Universal Records, taken from the album "Urban Heat".
With success on his hands, Magico co-wrote the Salsa-ton track "Sube Lo" released on Alex Wilson's album "Inglaterra" CD (2006) and due to the popularity of the song, progressed onto producing a complete album called 'Latin Urban' with Wilson for West One Music. Recently MC Magico songs have been featured on 'Colombia's Got Talent' and the 2011 US film "From Prada to Nada".
In 2010 MC Magico became a BA (Hons) Recording Arts graduate at the SAE Institute in London. After receiving his Audio Engineering degree, Magico now focuses his energies on music production and song writing, not only for himself and his band but other artists as well. In 2011 Magico worked again with Alex Wilson on his latest release 'Salsa Veritas', co-writing and co-producing two of the songs on the album. His innovative ability to craft fluent and influential music has attracted the attention of many artist and producers, ranging in genre from rap to R&B, dance to pop.
Magico is currently in the studio, working on his next release due out soon and is still causing a storm on the Latin music scene. Magico fuses the sounds of Colombia with the influences of the UK urban music, as well blending in diverse musical styles effortlessly, including Reggaeton, dub-step, dance and hip-hop. He has performed around the UK, in clubs like The Jazz Café, Islington Academy, The Marquee club, The Barbican Centre and headlined at the 2011 Leeds Loves Latino festival. With a firm following and a pioneering style, Magico continues to delight audiences around the UK.
