Born Anthony Michael Marsh on October 18th, 1984 in San Diego, California. The name Ampsterdam derives in one part from Anthony's nick name "AMP" given to him by his family almost from birth. The nick name "Amp" could also characterise his high energy lyrics and explosive "amplified" performances being "Amped up". In third part he took on the name after Leonardo Dicaprio's character "Ampsterdam"in the popular motion picture "Gangs of New York". Like Anthony, Decaprio's character" Ampsterdam", grew up without a father in a city where the replacement to a father figure's honor and discipline, may very well be a gang of hoods who pride themeselves in being fighters. This to Amp was all too familiar. So having grown up being influenced by the inner-city lifestyle of hippies, pimps, playas, gangstas, and husstlas; As well as having a multi- cultural upbringing in part to his mixed ethnicity, Amp began to convey the lifestyles he had seen and lived through writing music.

After getting the flavor and results he wanted out of his finished product. He coined the phrase "SUPER MUSIC".
