After a small club tour across Prague over the weekend in early October, where I was out with good friends, we met amazing people and reconnected with old ones. When I got back home, I recorded a new set!
It happened to be on my birthday, October 6th. So, happy birthday to me. The trip, especially the vibes at Roxy, Studio 54, and many others, gave me the inspiration for this one. Enjoy the ride.

My Name is Marvin and music has pretty much always been part of my life. I’ll skip the cliche “ever since I was a kid” story you’ve heard it a thousand times before.

I’ve been producing techno for a while now, and this year felt like the right moment to start fresh. So I chose a new name and put my older tracks up on Bandcamp.

From here on, I’ll be sharing both new and unreleased material on a regular basis. There’s quite a lot in the vault, so expect a steady flow of sounds.

My hope is that some of you will connect with what I do and if a track or two finds its way into your sets, that would mean the world to me.

Stay tuned.
