About this contributor

While most teens we're getting their licenses and learning to drive at the age of 16, Mack was flipping through Record bins and spinning vinyls. Starting from the Roots; Blues,Folk,Reggae and Rock n' Roll his library includes the foundations music is made on while not ignoring contemporary experiments currently being etched in plastic.
