Marley Carroll
Marley Carroll’s unassuming origins as a classically-trained percussionist were shattered after he took top honors at a statewide DJ battle at the prodigious age of 17. The experience catapulted him into the spotlight and catalyzed his path as an artist. In the years following, he evolved into a dynamic electronic music producer, world-class turntablist and captivating live performer with three full-length albums, multiple singles and remixes, and countless DJ sets in his cache, along with acclaimed appearances at iconic electronic music festivals like Coachella, Decibel and Moogfest.
With his 2018 album, Flight Patterns, Carroll infused his style of highly-detailed atmospheric dance music with samples and textures from the natural world, evoking comparisons to downtempo luminaries Four Tet and Boards of Canada. Bird songs, field recordings, gongs, deep basses, wooden percussion and plaintive analog synths provided the substrate for expansive instrumental songs with the kind of three-dimensional depth that invites immersive, intentional listening.
In 2022, he returned with Voices, a four-track EP inspired by the heartache of missing raving during lockdown. Like the best underground dance music of this era, Voices combines the drum-heavy intensity of the dance floor with the luminous nostalgia of late-night afters. The emotional resonance of Voices lingers long after a first listen and it seems destined to become both a DJ staple and essential listening for fans of underground dance music like DJ Seinfeld, Godford and Caribou. Voices captured the attention of prominent outlets like BBC Radio 1, BBC Radio 6, Radio Ibiza, KCRW and KEXP and provides a brilliant anticipatory window into what’s next for Carroll’s sound and evolution.
