Mac Declos is a DJ, producer, and rising figure in the French techno scene, originally from Paris. He grew up immersed in an artistic environment: his father was a blues guitarist and his mother a singer and dancer, which deeply influenced him from a young age and gave him an innate sense of rhythm and groove.
Initially passionate about dance — first hip-hop, then contemporary — he earned a degree from the Centre Chorégraphique National in Roubaix before turning to electronic music. His transition from dance to DJing happened naturally, thanks to his understanding of movement and rhythm.
At just 19, Mac Declos won two music competitions that opened the doors to major festivals such as Nördik Impakt and Astropolis, performing alongside well-known artists.
