His mother was a recognized ballerina who used to perform both spanish dances and ballet, first ballerina of the group formed by the "Flores Sisters", and member of the "ROMERIA" shows along with recognized names such as: Maria Antinea, Pedrito Rico, Lola Flores, Carmen Amaya, Juan Legido, etc. Following her dream, she traveled around the world however, an accident at the early age of twenty five finished her professional career. Mariano remembers his early years when Maria de Jesus(Mother) listened to the classical vinyls of the great composers: Bach, Vivaldi, Paganini, Beethoven, Chopin, Tchaikovski, among others, and several times he could see Maria with eyes full of tears when the only remembrance of the unsuccesful effort was tearing her soul apart. He felt all that pain as well and cried many times without knowing certainly why. Music put a seal to his life under her influence, classical compositions are part of his daily basis, due to melodies, feelings, and the remembrance from the past, wich are the reasons for his style and compositions. At the age of eight years old he listened for the very first time to "Kiss" with the big promotion of the record "Dinasty" throughout the world, their daring looks caught his attention inmediatly and that was the push Brascich needed to start appreciating rock and roll. Right after Kiss came Queen, Deep Purple, Rainbow, Yes, The Beatles, Jimmy Hendrix, Scorpions, Motley Crue, Wasp, Europe, AC/DC, and others. In the very beginning had the influences well established, in other words, wasn't too difficult for him to take them to the instrument. Mariano had an old spanish guitar that belonged to his grandfather, an antique from 1930 wich he used to practice for twelve and sometimes fifteen hours a day, he still hangs it on the wall like one of his most valuable heirlooms. Thanks to such an effort he formed the first band in five months named "Apocalypsis Rock" with a Christian message about "The final Days", after that he began working with a band called "The old locomotive from the West", name taken from his native town "Gral. Rodriguez" located at the very west of Argentina, plenty of railways. Later on he goes back to the Capital and creates the third project "Pact of blood" with marked influence of classical music and performers as Malmsteen, Cacophony, Rainbow, Purple...
