Marcus Intalex, born Marcus Kaye, was a pioneering force in the drum and bass scene hailing from Manchester, UK. As a DJ, producer, and label head, he became synonymous with soulful, forward-thinking electronic music through his work on labels like Soul:r and Revolve:r. His tracks like "Crackdown" and "Keep Your Cool" blended lush melodies with rugged basslines, earning him respect across multiple decades of D&B evolution. Beyond his solo work, he collaborated with artists like ST Files and nurtured emerging talent through his labels, becoming a mentor figure in the underground scene. When not making jungle, he explored house music under his Trevino alias, showing his versatility long before genre-blending became trendy.
Tragically passing in 2017, Marcus left behind a legacy that still pulses through the culture. His 2020 remaster of "Universe/Lose Control" and posthumous releases like the "Fourfit EP 08" prove his music's timeless appeal – whether through head-nodding rollers like "Lubbly Jubbly" or the brain-melting synths of "Acid Monday." More than just tracks, his career represented D&B's heart: raw creativity, community focus, and that sweet spot where soul meets the underground.
