Marcus Marr: "High Times"

He’s back! London-based producer and DJ Marcus Marr just dropped his great new track “High Times” on DFA, which marks his first release since last year’s much-played “Rocketship”. A crowd favorite from Marr’s live set, “High Times” channels the electric guitar stylings of Nile Rodgers circa 1979, and makes good use of the producer’s trademark whizzing synths as well as additional vocals from Nandi Bhebhe.

“Once I had come up with the guitar parts I then added all the other instruments one by one ‘til I had an arrangement I liked,” Marr says. “I’ve been playing it out for ages and it always works.”
