With his bands Circular Breathing, Peshkar, Gnawa Impulse, Boobinga (with Armin Metz), BiOS, O.Ton Projekt, Mantra Tribe and Didges Brew and his solo projects, he developed his very personal access to the didgeridoo.

In addition to rhythmic vocals used in jazz and various cultures around the world, Marc also uses mouth-percussion techniques modified for the Didgeridoo, such as “beat-box” (mouth drums). He owes his particularly percussive and punchy playing style to the pulse of his hometown of Berlin.
