He Almost Quit Music… Then Martin Garrix Supported His Track

He almost quit music. Then Martin Garrix supported his track, and everything changed. In this episode, I talk with Marc “Arcando” Bandecchi, who opens up about the moment he almost gave up in 2023… and how staying consistent and authentic brought his career back to life. We break down how his “Jungle” remix took off, what led to his collab “Set Me Free” with Martin Garrix, and the mindset shift that helped him fall back in love with producing again. If you’ve ever felt stuck, lost motivation, or questioned whether it’s all worth it, this one’s for you. 🎧 Watch next: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLMGoMHFJcnfhK68eb7wzQhJueBw-k3pL5 🔥 Join the Artist Coaching Community: https://linktr.ee/artistcoachingnl ⸻ 💬 What we talk about: • Almost quitting music in 2023 • Staying consistent when motivation disappears • How authenticity builds trust & momentum • The story behind “Set Me Free” with Martin Garrix • Finding your sound again through simplicity • Advice for producers feeling lost ⸻ ⏱️ Chapters 00:00 Intro 02:43 Martin Garrix support & how the collab started 05:16 Almost quitting in 2023 07:01 Losing motivation and clarity 09:54 Staying consistent without big results 12:57 How the “Jungle” remix changed everything 14:14 Finding confidence again through authenticity 15:29 How “Set Me Free” came together 21:10 Writing songs that feel right instead of forced 24:19 Learning to enjoy the process again 27:47 Staying true to your sound in drum & bass 31:04 Overcoming doubt and staying consistent 35:40 Advice for producers who feel stuck 38:22 What’s next for Arcando 🙋🏼‍♂️ Get coached by us: https://linktr.ee/artistcoachingnl ❤️ Follow us on: https://youtube.com/@artistcoachingnl?sub_confirmation=1 https://www.tiktok.com/@artistcoaching https://www.instagram.com/artistcoachingnl

Thanks Marc for sharing the interview, not only did it make my morning at work better 😂, but it was also really interesting and cool. I can’t wait to listen to the album you’re working on and all the collabs with the names you mentioned, they’re sure to be incredible🔥

Yo Marc, really inspiring interview! You talked about LUFS and making tracks loud enough, and mentioned that oscilloscope method — sounds super interesting, never heard of that way before! Wouldn’t it be a cool idea for a video on how to make your tracks loud enough, etc.?
