ARMADA SPOTLIGHT INTERVIEW:
“A grand entrance is no more than fitting for this vocal diva. Marcie’s sweetening, seductive voice first hit the airwaves in 2006, leading the way to a solid career in music. Within a few years she’s grown out to a renowned singer/songwriter, working with some of the best producers the dance scene has to offer. Her latest soul sketches and vocal cord reflections were ‘I Come Running’ and ‘Broken Wings’, two beauties out on the Coldharbour Red and S107 label.
Besides that, she also hosts her own radioshow ‘Behind the Lyric’, in which she interviews the best vocals lads and ladies and provides listeners with the latest vocal tracks out there. With her name travelling across the scene and plenty of spotlights pointing at her, it’s right about time for a look behind the voice of Marcie.”
DJ MAG– Sure Player of the month – 5/5:
“Steve Birch feat. Marcie- Edge of The Ocean”:
“Serendipitously arriving the day summer turned up, Steve Birch opens the batting for a new DeepBlue offshoot with this deckchair companion. The original’s is vocal-lite, but what there is quickly gets under the skin. Shot skywards by Birch’s ever-shifting production and powered by great melodies and a big bass-line, it’s not lacking dancefloor savvy either. The raft of remixes rock as well with Soren, Tasardi & Update Project respectively adding house, electro and
chillout elements…5/5″
PROMO ONLY
“You guys created a really beautiful track, and definitely something that is going to get the dancefloor moving. I can’t wait to see the video”.
IDJ MAGAZINE:
“Yamin feat. Marcie- Know You” (Total Digital Recordings):
This uplifting vocal trancer features the dulcet tones of Marcie, who has done an excellent job, as has Yamin whose level of production on this track is faultless.
For people who like things more driving there is a Ronny K presents Onyx Remix which from the onset pounds along with great pace yet still manages to be a real spine tingler.” Danny Slade 4/5
MIXMAG:
“Ali crowns a great month. London’s golden boy wastes no time this month, Untame me features the haunting vocals of well traveled US singer Marcie who’s guested for all the major trance producers and it’s a statement to Ali’s current status in the production ranks. This is electro meets dirty funk, all laid down on a bed of Ali’s funked up techno. Marco V has already said he adores it!” 4/5 (Guffy – Mixmag)
BOSTON WEEKLY DIG: “Pick of The Week”
“There are plenty of female vocalists in trance music, but Marcie stays on top with consistent output, true determination and a heavenly voice….”
UK TRANCE ALLIANCE: “Yamin feat. Marcie- Forward Motion”
“If i should put this track in a genre it would definitely be “sugar sweet trance” On the first listen i felt in love with this one, and stay’d on repeat the whole day! Not heard such a succesfull vocal trancer in my opinion. I am all over it! It has everything you want in a vocal trancer, and will hopefully go in the books as example for the specific genre.”
IVIBES.NU:
“A feature on singer and songwriter, Marcie Swartz, and her unique and popular radioshow Behind The Lyric…”
Change-underground.com
“ What offsets the thick foundation though are the lovely vocals of Marcie which are a standout element here. Sparsely placed and well processed with just the right amount of effects Marcie’s vocals add a heart wrenching element to the dark undertones that feature so heavily in the records framework. It’s a case where the producer knows to just let the vocal do the work for the most part and the results are just perfect.”

UK TRANCE ALLIANCE: “Damien S. & Marcie- Love Me & Leave Me”
“I really like Marcie’s vocal work and since her great release ‘Forward Motion’ which was done
alongside Yamin for Motion Music earlier in the year I have been eagerly awaiting this track.”
DANCERADIO.GR:
“One of the most frequently appearing vocalists in trance and progressive tracks gets behind her lyrics. When you are super busy like Marcie, who frequently appears in various electronic dance music projects, prepares and presents her own radio show, and performs in various clubs and party events all over the world, it is a miracle that she manage to get some free time to respond to the interview that follows. Whatever you wanted always to ask this very different and unique voice behind the tracks Her answers proves that behind her voice and lyrics there is a great artist who respects deeply what she does and she loves every minute devoted in whatever she touches. If you go to this year Maimi Winter Music Conference certainly you should check out the events that she is going to perform live her lyrics and this experience will be one that you will never forget.”

STARFLEET: “Check out this soon to be Dance hit by, Jake Shanahan featuring Marcie, “Don’t Stop” on Freefall Records. Excellent Trance flavored project that has great potential for a wide variety of clubs, mixshows & radio. Hot production loaded with great energy & smooth vocals by one of our favorite female artist, Marcie Joy. She adds so much to any project that is a part of. I say Trance, but you could easily categorize this as a Progressive to Electro House project, running around 132 bpm. Regardless of what style you call it, your dancefloors will be packed & your phone line should light up, every time you put this in your mix.”

Excelent energy on all remixes. This has very good potential to pack up your dancefloors any time of the night & or light up your phone lines if you’re doing a mixshow.”

There’s no way to pick the best of these remixes because each will work in the right club or mixshow. Don’t pass this up, give it a spin & watch the party take off mid to late night in the club.”
STARFLEET RECORD POOL: “D:folt feat. Marcie- Exhale”

TRANCE.NU
“Untame Me features the female vocalist Marcie who is cropping up all over the place at the moment. The slinky and seductive vocals are an acquired taste but they are driven by relentless, breathless production and add yet more variety to the [Ali Wilson- Watchmaker] album.”
PARTYSAN SLOVENIA Interview with Marcie and Matthew Hoag. PROGRESSIVEHOUSE.COM: “Neon Stereo & Marcie – Fuck me baby”
“Even if filthy electro is not what i opt for in general, this little package has quite a few elements that could propulse this track into a possible club crossover status. Both remixes show talent and Marcie’s voice looks to be fitting just right with the lyrics. Wish i was in the studio listening to the live recording.”
S.A.L.V.A. [02-Dec-2007]
WWW.YOUR-SCENE.COM: “Neon Stereo & Marcie – Fuck me baby”
“I’m loving this release. It definitely gets the hormones rushing! All the mixes are solid, but I especially like the Toxic Avenger remix who bring in some heavy, off the wall French/German Electro. Its bangin’ and bad ass for sure.”
DJ LEKO OF VYBE RADIO MIAMI:
“Since hearing my first ‘Marcie’ vocal track, I’m absolutely hooked and I can’t wait to hear the next release! Vocalists of her ability and musical intuition are a producer’s dream!

europop, progressive trance, & house. I am amazed at this talent….”
TRANCEDJS.DK by DJ Sasj
“Mm. En lækker intro med bløde sweeping strings og klokke ringen agtige lyde tager dig ind i den helt rigtige stemning, soft og opløftende der får et smil frem på læben. En dyb progressiv bassline sætter ind og så ruller man ellers derudaf med lækre, mystiske, dybe, mørke og intenst fangende elementer, på toppen af det hele frydes vi med de smukke vokaler fra Marcie som simpelthen er sublim! Super fedt track må man sige.”

Timothy Allan & Marcie – One Night Stand EP
This new bit from New York’s Sea To Sun… is a bouncy houser with a mix of tribalish rhythm and tougher electro sounds permeating the mix, with a sassy, rhythmic vocal running over the top – but not overused. The production has a bit of a Prok & Fitch feel to it – crisp and classy.
The vocal is effected and edited wonderfully, and the result is something that could fit into a trance, prog or tech set with ease. B-side Somebody is a deeper trancer, with a vocal with a tinge of Madonna to it, some moody tech stabs and monotone bass giving it all a classy sound – by contrast, the slowed-down hard dance sounds of Skywings’ remix are anything but.
BEATZBASE:
“the Skywings Remix that wins it for me”
Small Press Reviews: Nothing In Your Eyes
“The pathos in these lines is palpable, and the remainder of the song swirls cinematically with drums crunching underfoot and an icy synth line from Android Invasion lingering in the air like frosty breath. All told, a two-minute odyssey into the darkness of a love gone cold.”
