  • As part of our new Re-record feature focusing on Black artists in electronic music from 2001 through 2020, we're doing a week-long Mix Of The Day takeover. MARRØN is one of Amsterdam's most exciting DJs. Starting out with an African-influenced sound called Afro Deep, his sound has since evolved into a lithe, kinetic form of techno focused on bounding beats and rushing melodies—music that never sits still. As a cofounder and resident of Eerste Communie, he's helped foster a community for fast, hard-hitting techno in the Dutch capital, but as you'll hear from this mix—for Eerste Communie's own podcast series—it's not just about beating you over the head with kick drums, but finding space, emotion and tension in the genre, too.
