Franciscus Marnick, resident DJ and co-founder of Nachtkantoor, has established himself as a versatile DJ who continuously pushes boundaries. With his sets, he takes the audience on an unpredictable journey through the darker corners of various genres: from post-punk and new wave to electro, EBM, acid, progressive, jungle, dubstep, house, and techno. No genre or tempo is too foreign for him. This is evident in his monthly updated playlist Before The Dance, which he plays at Vreugde Vuur in Amsterdam.
His music is an anthropological journey, blending elements from different eras, regions, and sounds, with the goal of making each set a unique experience. His free-spirited style adapts to the energy of the space he’s in, ensuring that no two sets are the same.
In addition to his work behind the decks, he has organised countless unforgettable events and raves with Nachtkantoor over the years. He can also occasionally be heard as a radio host on Open Source Radio. With a vision that blurs the lines between music and experience, Franciscus Marnick continues to position himself as an artist who refuses to settle for the conventional. Expect the unexpected, time and time again.
