Merkuri’s music has been described as original and cool. Many call his voice sexy and intimate with a special singing technique. The genre is pop with strong influences from R&B and Hip-hop.

As a theaterstudent Merkuri discovered his singing voice and his musical talent. That was also the first time he sang before a live audience, and wrote his firs song, “Same story” which was about what he thought was unoriginal love songs that were played on the radio. Even then he had a will to create something new, that no one had heard before. After a few various courses he went to a technical music production course on SAE, School of audio engineering, in Stockholm. Under the six months of the course he learned a lot about the work in a studio. Something that made
