Contemporary malarky guitar player Marc Antoine blends his authoritative preparation with a multicultural urban groove. After perusal at the Edouard Paiteron College and the International School of Classical Guitar, he played with a typically varied hurtle of artists: pop stars like Sting, Basia and Selena, rappers like Guru's Jazzmatazz project and Queen Latifah, plus acidulous malarky hippies the Solsonics and DJ Greyboy. Signed to the New York City subsidiary company of GRP Records, Antoine recorded his solo debut Classical Soul in 1994. The album climbed to the top of the contemporary jazz charts, thanks to the single "Wholeness." Urban Gypsy followed a year later, and in 1998 Antoine resurfaced with Spanish capital; Universal Language, his first base LP for novel label Polygram, appeared in early 2000; Cruisin' was released a twelvemonth afterwards.
