Excerpt from Latin Percussion, Inc.:
Mark D'Antonio is a professional Conga player currently residing on the island of Maui, Hawaii. He has been a "student of the drum" since age 9, studying drum kit with a host of talented instructors and mentors. His current musical evolution as performer and producer is a balance of Latin Percussion, a wide variety of electronic music (House, Breakbeat, Tech, Funk) and a foundation built on Jazz and Funk filling his ears from an early age. His drum sponsorship with Latin Percussion, Inc., allows him to travel the globe and perform and record with a wide variety of artists; from George Benson to Willie Nelson; Ras Michael to Paul Oakenfold. His electronic compositions run the gamut of world music styles, drawn upon travel and experiences, but have a common percussive theme running throughout.
