Ever since her earliest releases, Marhu has always demonstrated a willingness to push creative boundaries. After appearing as an 'emerging act' on Beatportal's radar in 2022, the Belgian DJ/producer’s career began to take shape and her journey to become a regular face amongst ARTCORE Records’ supremely gifted roster had begun.

In 2024, Marhu appeared on ARTCORE’s OFFSónar 2024 VA with her track ‘Bansuri’, followed up with the 4-track ‘Bhajan’ EP, drawing inspiration from a wonderful mix of traditional Japanese and Indian instruments in the process. 

Earlier this year, Marhu was selected to feature alongside Valentinø on ARTCORE DUO II as part of the label’s forward thinking DUO Series – a concept which sees different artists feature on a single EP release. Whilst more recently, Marhu collaborated with Mexico’s Interactive Noise to produce the incredible ‘Sonic Ninja’ which was included on Paganotto’s most recent label VA offering, ARTCORE OFFSónar 2025.

On 11th September, Marhu returns with a new two track EP titled ‘Mamichula’, with the title track featuring the vocals of MC Arlene. “The Moment I heard MC Arelen’s incredible vocal, I was hooked. Collaborating with her on Mamichula has been pure fire. I love blending worlds with talented artists from other genres, and working with Arlene was an inspiring experience from start to finish.”

‘Mamichula’ steers proceedings into familiar territory with Marhu once again merging leftfield influences with pulsing electronic musicality. Once Arelen’s opening gambit concludes, a hot rush of revolving synth and bass notes begin to loop around a bellowing accordion lead, even more of Arelen’s Latin-led vocals, and a dextrous blend of driving techno and psy-trance.

B-side, ‘Solo Si Puedes Papi’ completes the release with the same flamenco imbued heat as it opened, further blending world heritage sounds with electronic music. A whiplash of shimmering melodics and stomping percussion distils to half time aside a tough-talking vocal component and warm woodwind led melody before surging back to full-speed and closing the EP in fervent fashion.

In 2022, Indira Paganotto established ARTCORE with a clear vision in mind. The primary aim behind creating this label was to acknowledge and elevate the unique sound associated with Indira, which, until then, had not found a suitable representation in any existing label. It's widely recognized that this distinctive sound has been gaining rapid popularity and is finally receiving the recognition it rightfully deserves.

However, it's essential to note that ARTCORE will not be confined to a single genre. Instead, the emphasis will be on preserving authenticity and ensuring high-quality musical output. The label will serve as a platform that celebrates artistic expression, relevance, and musical heritage. Also, ARTCORE enables the opportunity for artists to be mentored directly by Indira is at the core of ARTCORE.
