An exhilarating, genre-defying triumph that elevates Mark Masguro to a class of their own.



We came across Mark Masguro and their latest release, “Whispers,” and were immediately captivated by its immersive quality and multidimensional artistry. From the very first notes, the track reveals a graceful yet propulsive energy that is best appreciated through headphones, where its spatial design wraps around you with subtle momentum. The soundscape moves like a satellite in slow orbit, creating a gentle disorientation that paradoxically feels invigorating, as if the music is physically rotating within your own head.


What follows this entrancing introduction is a dramatic tonal shift. The beat drops in with the weight and resonance of a thunderclap or a heartbeat, echoing through the chest and grounding the listener in a visceral, corporeal sensation. Mark Masguro’s production choices here are both understated and potent. They demonstrate a refined sensitivity to spatial acoustics and dynamic movement that elevates the track’s impact.


Following that immersive onset is the stunning entrance of the vocalist, a near-ritualistic chant that fuses tribal cadence with contemporary pop sensibilities. This fusion feels as if it’s performed by a synchronized ensemble of dancers, where the voice doesn’t just ride the rhythm but becomes rhythm itself. The vocal line functions percussively, snapping into alignment with the beat, while the swirling sound bed continues to pulse behind it, enhancing the hypnotic pull of the piece. What also impressed us was the command in the delivery. There’s a quiet authority in the execution, a smooth and confident presence that doesn’t just recite the lyrics but asserts them with intention.


As the performance unfolds, ethereal background harmonies layer in, with soft, sustained “ahhs” creating a choir-like ambiance that further enriches the emotional texture.

And then, the lyrics:


“Close your eyes in the cradle you’ll stay”


This line, coupled with the lullaby-like delivery, brought a revelatory clarity. The song is, at its core, a modern, emotionally nuanced reimagining of a bedtime lullaby. It walks the tightrope between soothing and exhilarating, awakening a childlike comfort while elevating the sensory experience with its layered production. The duality of calming nostalgia and adult-forward electronic arrangement was masterfully achieved. It made us realize how deeply crafted “Whispers” truly is.


“Sleep little one in the sweet escapade”


These words finalize the intent. They suggest a journey into rest not through stillness, but through emotional and sonic ascension. What Mark Masguro achieves here borders on psychological songwriting. The track pulls on deeply encoded musical memories by mirroring familiar chord structures and melodic archetypes from our birth, possibly echoing something akin to a reinvented Canon in D. The result is an outstanding example of creative engineering. It evokes a universal emotional response while remaining entirely original in execution.




We couldn’t be more impressed with this remarkable release by Mark Masguro.

And, after this experience, we were hooked. So we immediately turned to the extended release “Summer Night's Dream (Extended Version)” by Mark Masguro and Beatman, eager to dive deeper into his sonic world. What greeted us was a sparkling, high-energy introduction, characterized by glittering synths that danced like starlight across the auditory field. A gentle vocal overlay introduced anticipation, which quickly transformed into a burst of intensity with intricate drum patterns and a sophisticated, syncopated beat. The low-end pulsed like a second heartbeat, intensifying the emotional grip on the listener. The vocalist returned, this time soaring with echoed finesse and exhibiting a range that danced between gentle release and powerful conviction.


What followed was an unexpected cosmic interlude. The synths swelled into a celestial solo performance, as if the track had momentarily broken free of gravity. The arrangement felt loose yet intentional, like a rhythm emerging from raw inspiration rather than strict notation.


As the beat continued to build and evolve, the effect was an overwhelming sensory climax. It culminated in a final vocal resurgence that was radiant, exhilarating, and wholly immersive.


We’re thrilled to have discovered such a boundary-pushing visionary like Mark Masguro. This artist's persona and creative endeavors stem directly from the vivid imagination of Markus Magro. Rather than conforming to traditional structures, Masguro dismantles barriers with each release. He crafts intricate, thrilling compositions that stir the senses and ignite dancefloors across the globe.


We are beyond excited to follow the journey of Mark Masguro and Beatman, and can’t wait to hear what’s next.
