A BRIEF HISTORY OF MCMC
MCMC was born in Mauritius and raised in East London, the youngest of 8 kids. He started his career as most of the great MC’s in UK by toasting on reggae instrumentals at various house parties and dancehalls around London in turn gathering quite a large a following. This motivated MCMC to join the new phenomenon sweeping the nation “RAVE”, leading him to host the biggest electronic dance events across the UK, sharing the bill and stage with THE PRODIGY, SL2, CARL COX, GROOVERIDER, HYPE & many more of the innovators of today’s electronic dance culture. As an innovator himself he dominated this era and help create the persona of today’s D&B MC. Being one to notice raw talent, MCMC took an unknown MC under his wing who went on to became the most revolutionary and now legendary D&B MC ever to have lived STEVIE HYPER D.
MCMC experience and passion has seen him hold the position as an official ambassador and spokesperson for the PRS (Performing Rights Society) and MCPS (Mechanical Copyright Protection Society), promoting awareness of copyright issues among the UK dance music industry and keeping MCPS/PRS informed of the latest developments in club land. MCMC s songwriting ability, charisma, and talent were recognized as valuable assets by London s Stage One Annual Children’s Performing Workshop. This heartfelt, non-profit organization hoisted MCMC to Head Tutor. In this position, he oversaw the staff tutors programs and helped mold the effectiveness of all student/teacher relationships. Moreover he taught groups of 12-18 year old girls and boys how to rap, write songs and choreograph dance routines, stage etiquette, mike projection, and flyer design. With the close of each six week session the group of students would culminate their efforts with a highly entertaining, original talent show. MCMC quotes this experience as “The most important and rewarding job I have ever had”
