New Show: Marcie presents Behind The Lyric


We are very excited to announce the launch of Behind The Lyric on Mugasha! Marcie is one of the premier vocalists in the EDM scene today. She has teamed up on tracks with the likes of TyDi, D:Folt, Yamin, and many more and seen DJ support from the worlds top acts: Armin van Buuren, Tiesto, Paul van Dyk, Markus Schulz, Ferry Corsten, Paul Oakenfold...the list goes on and on. How about I just let Marcie tell you about the show in her own words. Take it away, Marcie!


Hello!

I'm Marcie and I'm excited that all the episodes of Behind The Lyric are now being shared on Mugasha!  

I'm a Singer/Songwriter with releases out in many genres. As a listener and a musician, I am always interested to hear how Artists come up with the ideas for their tunes. What stories are they telling? What happened in their life that makes them want to write, and how does music help them in their life?

Behind The Lyric features Singer/Songwriters telling the stories behind their Dance Music tracks. I've interviewed Jes Brieden, Paul Oakenfold, Ferry Corsten, Nadia Ali, Jaren, Zara Taylor, Roger Shah, Matt Darey, Tara McDonald, and many more. It's a show that focuses on the craft of songwriting, and the personal elements that go into an artists work. The show also explores the impact of songs on listeners. I wanted to get away from the 'hype' and image oriented elements of the scene. My show is meant to focus on the heart and soul of the artist and the listener.

I hope you will enjoy listening to the artists personal stories mixed atop the music much like a director's commentary on a dvd.

The artist participation has been phenomenal, with each bringing unique insight into the lyric writing process. It has been an amazing whirlwind of activity putting this show together! When I first started it, I could only dream it would go as far as it has. I'm grateful that the artists have opened themselves up on the show, and I love the feedback I get from listeners. I've learned more than ever before about how music is a lifeforce for so many.

Thank you for listening. Please come visit me online, and I hope you enjoy all the episodes of 'Marcie presents Behind The Lyric' here on Mugasha!

Best,

Marcie


So there you have it. Marcie really hits the nail on the head. The show is like a director's commentary to some of the biggest dance music tracks and artists. Very unique, very cool. We are very excited to have the entire back catalog of Behind The Lyric and of course all the future episodes. She has done some amazing interviews on her show and, undoubtedly, has lots more planned.

Welcome aboard, Marcie!
