DESCRIPTION:
4 Track Remix EP Deep House / Nu Disco - Marcus Marr shares his Familiar Five: Remixed EP. The remixed tracks first appeared on the UK producer’s Familiar Five EP, released earlier this year. The record features remixes from Justin Van Der Volgen, Prosumer, Gerd Janson and Ara Koufax.
“It was fun to ask some of my favourite producers to remix these tracks,” notes Marr. “I love Gerd’s remixes and play them loads. Prosumer is a great producer and I’ve been a fan of his for ages. Justin Van Der Volgen I also love - his originals and his remixes are always interesting. And Ara Koufax I’ve been a fan of since their tune ‘Brenda.’”
Marr is no stranger to collaboration, working with Australian musician Chet Faker on 2015’s Work EP. Work yielded two hit singles, “Birthday Card” (Annie Mac’s BBC Radio 1 first play, #1 Hype Machine) and “The Trouble with Us” (#1 Hype Machine). The Familiar Five EP, however, shows him in his individual element, an artist and performer who understands just how to make superb music for both man and machine.
A regular at Berlin’s famed nightclub Berghain/Panorama Bar since 2014, Marcus Marr recently performed a string of single launch dates in North America with The Juan Maclean. He has previously toured with the likes of Hot Chip, Floating Points, Jacques Greene and Optimo, and has performed at the highly regarded MoMa PS1 Warm Up series, Day For Night Festival and Art Basel Miami. Marcus has also contributed mixes to Beats in Space and Boiler Room.

Last FM Information on Marcus Marr
Please note the information is done on a artist keyword match and data is provided by LastFM.
Marcus Marr has been releasing records via DFA Records over the last few years, including 'Brown Sauce' and 'The Music'. A regular at Berlin’s nightclub Berghain/Panorama Bar, the lifelong music obsessive's first encounters with dance music were acid house records which augmented his vinyl collection of rock and soul, and attending all night parties under Brixton's St. Matthews Church. Traveling to the south of England to watch DJ Harvey play a lengthy set, he saw the kind of power a DJ can wield over a willing crowd.
In 2015, Marcus recorded a collaborative 4-track EP with Chet Faker. Titled ‘Work’, the EP was released on 4 December via Chet Faker’s own label, Detail Records. The EP features 'Birthday Card', ‘Learning For Your Love’ , ‘The Trouble With Us and ‘Killing Jar’.
Marcus Marr will release his debut solo album via DFA Records in late 2016.
