DJ Back To Mars

backtomars.jpg

With a background in classical and contemporary dance, Back to Mars was born in Brazil and lives in Amsterdam. Her DJ career started in 2001 and her music style is a blend of warm Progressive and twisted Psychedelic Full-on Trance, also travelling into Electro and Deep House. With uplifting and surprising mixes, Back to Mars takes the public into the experience of feeling the power of music through her sets.

Real name?
Marcia Larroid Ghisi

DJ name?
Back to Mars

How did you choose It?
I lived in The Elf in Amsterdam, a multi-national squat with more than 100 occupants. This was a community of artists, musicians, DJs, shamans that hosted many parties. While living there I thought: 'If, one day, I become a DJ – I will be Back to Mars!" DJs play back to back and when I lived in England before that my nickname was Mars. So there it was: Back to Mars! It was meant as a joke!

Vinyl junkie or CDs?
CDs. They're easier to travel with because they are smaller. I also find it handy to have the Q set automatically so I don't have to search for it every time.

How many CDs do you have?
No idea. I need to count them. Maybe 400?

What style of music do you play?
Progressive and Full-on Psy Trance, Electro and Deep House.

Where do you DJ?
In Holland, I DJ at Psytrance parties and regularly at Siberië, Kokopelli, Rokerij and Korsakoff. I also play in other countries like Brazil, Belgium, Germany, Italy and Spain.

Your ideal DJ gig?
At a nice festival in the sunshine!

Last CD you bought?
The last music I bought was various loose tracks in Deep House and Electro from Beatport. For example: Unai & Vibrasphere, Nick Holder, Dubrazil, Groove Collective, Natural Electronic System.

Current musical obsession?
Deep House and ultra fast Full-on Psy Trance – not together of course!

Top 3 all-time dancefloor favourites?
Cydonia – Freakshow
Dark Nebula and Ozzy – The Hiss
Freq – Strange Attractor

Worst request?
At a Psytrance party: 'Do you have Bob Marley?'

Favourite internet radio station
