Google’s I/O event took an unexpected turn this year when Marc Rebillet, known for his quirky tunes and eccentric robes, kicked off the pre-show. With millions of followers on YouTube and TikTok, Rebillet’s entrance from a colossal coffee mug, screaming “GOOGLE!” in his rainbow-clad “Loop Daddy” robe, set the tone for his energetic 20-minute set.

Rebillet wasted no time showcasing Google’s latest innovation, MusicFX’s DJ mode. With a few taps, he blended viola vibes with hip-hop beats and chiptune sounds, creating a musical fusion. But the real magic happened when he let the audience steer the ship, feeding the AI with eclectic requests like Persian tar and flamenco guitar, resulting in a captivating mix of sounds.
