about maro

DJ. Producer. Liberation witch.

As a beacon in the evolving landscapes of house and techno, Maro has emerged as an unparalleled force, not just as a DJ and producer, but as a true innovator and visionary in sound. Born from the diverse cultural experiences of living across Japan, Seattle, San Diego, and Colorado, Maro harnesses a diverse tapestry of cultural sounds, blending the driving force of tech house and techno with the rhythmic essence of afro beats and Latin house. 

As Maro rockets into her third year behind the decks in 2024, her first two years have seen a rapid ascent to direct support and sharing stages for notable artists such as Secondcity, Shaded, Anabel Englund, Atroxx, N2N, MZ Worthy, Hannes Bieger, Ash Lauryn, Rumpus, Baby Weight and Shouse. She curates her signature Maro party series bi-annually in her hometown of Denver, and is consistently in demand for shows and radio mixes from Colorado to New York to Burning Man & beyond. Her debut track, Fuck It, released in March 2024 on Fantastic Voyage, and marks the continuation of a promising odyssey.

It's not just Maro's skillful blend of genres that sets her apart—it's her electric energy behind the decks that makes her an unforgettable performer. Her music creates a sanctuary for the soul, a space where freedom of expression and the joy of discovery are not just encouraged but celebrated. Her sets are more than performances; they are invocations of curiosity, celebration, and depth that aren’t just heard but deeply felt.

 

“Many of my favorite shamans are rock stars. they probably don’t even know they’re shamans but they know how to get to ecstasy and back, and how to take others with them. they may not have a license, but they know how to drive.”
