1. Hey MARQUS and SNAJDER! Glad to have you here to talk with you about your latest release ‘UNBREAKABLE’.
SNAJDER: Super excited to be here! We’ve poured a lot of emotion and energy into this track, and it’s always meaningful to get to talk about that process.
MARQUS: Thanks a lot for having us! It’s always a pleasure to talk about the music we care about — and UNBREAKABLE is definitely one of those tracks.
2. Can you please tell us more details about ‘UNBREAKABLE’? How did it come to life and how did you meet each other?
SNAJDER: ‘UNBREAKABLE’ is a really personal track for me. It was born out of a tough period in my life — I was and still am battling cancer, and music became my therapy, my escape, and my strength. I wanted to create something that captured that fight, that resilience — not just for me, but for anyone going through something heavy. That’s where the core message of being unbreakable comes from. It’s about rising, even when everything is pushing you down. I met Marqus through the music scene — we connected instantly, both musically and personally. There was real chemistry in the studio from day one.
MARQUS: We met online back in early 2024, I believe through mutual friends on Facebook. One of us added the other — I can’t quite remember who — but what I do remember is how quickly we clicked musically. We shared a very similar vibe when it comes to EDM, especially the melodic but high-energy sound. UNBREAKABLE is our latest Future Rave-inspired release, with an emotional vocal, uplifting energy, and a powerful drop. We wanted to make something that hits both the heart and the dancefloor.
3. What sets ‘UNBREAKABLE’ apart from your previous work, and why should listeners tune in?
MARQUS: UNBREAKABLE captures something very honest and euphoric — it’s emotional and melodic, but still has that festival edge. For me, it represents everything I love about Future Rave: the tension, the atmosphere, the lift. It also shows how our collaboration has evolved — it sounds more mature, more focused, and more impactful.
SNAJDER: What sets ‘UNBREAKABLE’ apart from my previous work is how raw and real it is. This isn’t just a track you vibe to. It’s more than just a dance track; it’s an anthem of survival, strength, and self-belief. Compared to my earlier releases, which leaned more into feel-good energy or club vibes, UNBREAKABLE has a deeper emotional layer. You’ll feel it in your chest — but there’s also this vulnerability that I haven’t explored this openly before.
4. How would you describe your sound?
MARQUS: I’d say my sound is a blend of Future Rave, Progressive House, and melodic big room energy. It’s dark, emotional, and euphoric — I love creating tracks that build tension and then explode with feeling.
SNAJDER: I’d describe our sound as emotional, energetic, and empowering — a blend of melodic electronic music with powerful drops and honest storytelling. It’s where vulnerability meets intensity. My influences come from both the underground and the mainstream, mixing deep feelings with festival-level energy.
5. Who is MARQUS and SNAJDER and why music? At what age did you each get into music and how?
MARQUS: My journey started in 3rd grade singing in a choir, but I dropped that pretty quickly for skateboarding. When I was around 12, I discovered electronic music — my first CD was Trance Energy 2002, and I used to make mixtapes with a dual CD/tape deck. That passion grew fast. By 13, I was producing music in Reason 2.5 and later moved to Cubase, which I still use today.
SNAJDER: I started messing around with DJ gear when I was about 12, but it wasn’t until my teenage years that I really dove in. It was never just about the beats; it was about expressing what I couldn’t say out loud. Production came later in life, and that’s when the mission changed — I wasn’t just making tracks, I was building anthems for people who feel everything deeply and fight silently.
6. Do you remember the name of the first song that made you love electronic music?
SNAJDER: It was the album Daft Punk – Homework that got me inspired to electronic music.
MARQUS: Absolutely — Warp Brothers – Blast The Speakers. That track was on Trance Energy 2002 and it completely changed the way I heard music. I was hooked instantly.
7. Who or what has been your biggest inspiration throughout your music journey?
SNAJDER: When it comes to music production, my biggest inspiration has always been Swedish House Mafia. Their ability to make music that feels both intimate and made for huge crowds is something I’ve carried with me ever since.
MARQUS: Artists like Swedish House Mafia, Avicii, Axwell, Angello, Ingrosso, Martin Garrix, and Deadmau5 have played a massive role in shaping my sound and vision. They showed me that electronic music can be both powerful and deeply emotional.
8. What’s the one activity you love doing in your free time when not making music?
MARQUS: I really enjoy slowing down when I’m off the grid — spending time with my girlfriend, relaxing with our cats, going for walks in nature, and just letting my mind wander.
SNAJDER: When I’m not making music, one of my favorite things is playing padel. I also love spending time with friends and family, and I’m a huge Formula 1 fan — the speed, the strategy, and the adrenaline really speak to me.
9. Can you tell us more about your dream and future collaboration and what do you hope to achieve in the next 5 years in your professional career?
SNAJDER: One of my biggest dreams is to collaborate with artists who’ve shaped the sound and energy I’ve always looked up to. I want to play on major festival stages around the world, and launch more collaborations with both established and rising talent.
MARQUS: I’d love to collaborate with someone like Axwell or Martin Garrix someday — people who really understand the melodic power of EDM. In five years, I hope MARQUS is on main stages at festivals like Ultra or Tomorrowland.
