After years of crafting hits behind the scenes, MARZI is stepping into the spotlight with his latest single, “Dancing & Crying,” set to drop on March 25 via Modern Delivery, a brand-new dance and electronic label. With a GRAMMY-nominated background in hip-hop production, MARZI’s transition into dance music marks a pivotal moment in his artistic journey.
Having worked with heavyweights like 6lack, Swae Lee, Nav, and Travis Scott, MARZI felt the urge to create music that was truly his own.
“I started this project because I was fed up with working on music solely for other artists. I got tired of putting my future in other people’s hands and putting my dreams on hold. Over time, I outgrew the rap scene I came up in, and my taste evolved into something new.” – MARZI
The inspiration for “Dancing & Crying” comes from a melody that had been stuck in his head for years—a piece initially conceived for hip-hop, now reimagined through the lens of house music. The track’s emotive piano melodies and pulsating rhythm stem from a defining moment at Porter Robinson’s HARD Summer performance, where MARZI witnessed the deep emotional connection between music and the audience.
“This song has been stuck in the back of my head for years, so finally being able to finish and release it feels incredibly satisfying.” – MARZI
Merging his hip-hop roots with electronic elements, MARZI brings a fresh production style to dance music. By incorporating custom drum kits and dynamic, live-sounding percussion fills, he delivers a sound that is both organic and modern.
“Live drum fills aren’t unheard of in dance music, but I think they’re underused. I want my music to blend live elements with modern synths and production styles to create something unique.” – MARZI
With “Dancing & Crying,” MARZI makes a bold entrance into dance music, proving himself as an artist to watch. This release also marks an exciting debut for Modern Delivery, a label dedicated to pushing the boundaries of innovative electronic music.
“Dancing & Crying” drops March 25—stay tuned for MARZI’s next chapter.
