BALANCE Show - Hosted by Spacewalker

DJ MARCIA CARR

London born and raised, globe trotting music selector and tastemaker Marcia Carr, also known as Marcia DaVinylMC has been contributing to the UK dance music scene over four decades already.  She’s a stalwart, an aficionado, and a woman who’s definitely not content with sitting still.

As a DJ – in the last few years she's helds residencies at Jazz Cafe, The Cause and Soho House – her club sets weave together a plethora of sounds that pay homage to the Black roots of dance music – past, present and future.  You can find her spinning everything from house to disco, gospel, funk and dubstep, but there’s always a distinct soulfulness or jazzy touch that permeates her selections

That versatility is something she’s honed over the years from playing at venues across the world with some of the biggest names in house, Detroit techno and broken beat, on top of hosting regular broadcasts on different radio stations, including Rinse FM - alongside guest appearances on BBC 6 Music, BBC Radio 1, Reprezent, Soho Radio, Balamii - her monthly show "¡Take the Con!" on theboatpod.com draws in a diverse support of followers.

But not only will you find Marcia front of house, she also works behind the scenes helping others with their own musical endeavours.   

Marcia is currently receiving much interest for her joint compilation album project 'Soul Damn Funky' Vol. 2, a release with Brighton's Russell Ruckman.   

As well as being a music journalist and independent consultant, she also runs music PR and artist agency, Talking Music Productions, and is the founder of Girlz B Like – a vinyl-only platform held at Grow, its home in Hackney Wick that spotlights women selectors and DJs - celebrating their tenth birthday in the autumn of  2025, with the release of a debut, limited edition 7-inch vinyl release to mark the milestone.

Coastin' 12 by Spacewalker

Our September edition in the First Word mixtape series is delivered by the legendary DJ Marcia Carr. A pioneering selector, broadcaster and champion of soulful music in all its forms, Marcia has been a central figure in London’s underground for decades. She’s brought her deep, wide-reaching knowledge to clubs and festivals worldwide, as well as the airwaves via stations including Mi-Soul, NTS and more. Known as “the DJs’ DJ,” her sets move effortlessly through house, soul, disco, jazz, gospel and beyond – always with passion, depth and a spirit of connection at the core.

On the mix, Marcia says:

"Music is me. Connected from birth. Black in soul, colour and feeling. Music is me. Spiritually motivated, it is kind, it is joyful, it is impassioned, it is real and compiled with sincerity within, 1Love Marcia, the DJs' DJ x"

BALANCE - Show #523 (Hosted by Spacewalker)

And we've finally reached the end of 2016! Ultimately it has proven to be a rather forgettable year overall, and it appears this is a universally shared sentiment. Yet again, Albert Ayler's theory that music is the healing force of the universe has been put to the test, and luckily, it's proven to be as accurate as ever! 

Breaking from tradition and my usual countdown of the top albums, tracks and EPs, I thought I'd mash them all together in one 90 minute mix, which I think you'll agree, makes for a much better listening experience.

Wishing everyone a Happy 2017!
