His dream career at the time was to become a DJ. His first self-produced single, <strong>Pull Up<\/strong>, was released in 2017 on the 4B MACA sublabel. He started out as a producer of trap and dubstep style bass sounds, but over the years he changed his music to house music.   <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"has-text-dark-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-e76018c9489995eeee04758c8c35accb\">He perfected his music during the COVID-19 pandemic in the <strong>United States.<\/strong> In <strong>2020<\/strong>, he released Marco <strong>Polo, a tech house track<\/strong> on the compilation Illegal Mixtape Vol. 3. from Malay. He played his first pure house set as a DJ on <strong>New Year&#8217;s Day 2021.<\/strong> Eventually, he began experimenting with old cuts and reworked several tracks, including<strong> Funky Town by Lipps, Inc.<\/strong>   <\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/acraze\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/paradiseopenair.sk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/acraze-1024x677.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-25752\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n<p class=\"has-text-dark-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-e7c67450b9b4646ff92c2b18f89a5eee\">In 2021, he scored a worldwide hit with a <strong>new version of R&amp;B group Cherish&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/tyITL_exICo?si=MF2euW6cwS7tOwgX\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Do It to It<\/a>.<\/strong> The track was first played in Orlando on New Year&#8217;s Day 2021 and has since been featured in sets by DJ Snake, Malaa and other well-known DJs. DJ Snake called the song &#8220;the song of the summer&#8221; during a performance in Brooklyn. The single version was released on August 20, 2021 and has since gone viral. DJ Zedd used the song during his set at EDC Las Vegas and mixed it with the popular theme song from <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/DxzdRri8o6o?si=XNWxKOsegXnmi_7N\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Squid Game<\/a><\/strong>.    <\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"ACRAZE - Do It To It (ft.
