Footage From Marco Polo's Album Release Party In Toronto

Some footage from Marco Polo's "Stupendous Adventures of Marco Polo" release party, at which fellow Toronto producers Frank Dukes, Rich Kidd, and MoSS, as well as Marco himself, were asked to flip some well-known samples. Frank Dukes tackles Seals & Croft's "Summer Breeze", Marco works with Al Be Sure's "Night and Day", MoSS manages to make The Bee Gees "Stayin' Alive" sound gully (no joke), and Rich Kidd gives Melanie Fiona's "It Kills Me" his own personal twist.

First Single Off Of New Marco Polo Album

In preparation for the release of his up coming album, Marco Polo along with Duck Down Records have released it's first single: Radio by Exile (Featuring Torae & Ruste Juxx)

Months back the homey Exile asked me (Marco Polo) to remix something off his “Radio” album which was a very dope concept album. He sent me the stems to the beats and I used different sounds from about 4 different beats of “Radio” to make this remix, then I asked Torae and Ruste to jump on it.

You can checkout the track listing and preview his up coming album, The Stupendous Adventures Of Marco Polo. The album currently has a release date of June 29th.
