BIO (English)
DJ JEAN MARON — DJ, producer and beatmaker — has spent the past 25+ years touring between France, Luxembourg and the USA.
He has opened for artists including Kendrick Lamar, DMX, Mac Miller, G-Eazy, Kery James, Stromae, Booba, Lacrim and Diams, and shared the stage with legendary DJs such as DJ Cut Killer, DJ Premier, DJ Jazzy Jeff, DJ Daddy-K and Khost & Goldfinger. He has also torn up stages at the Winter X-Games and Fresh Island Festival.
He is currently one of the resident DJs of the Mama Shelter Luxembourg rooftop.
His sets are rooted in Hip-Hop and R&B, naturally extending into the Soul and Funk these genres come from — and into anything else that fits, as long as it has stood the test of time or shows real staying power as a future classic. No chasing the trend of the month, no Amapiano or Afrobeats overload. The rule of thumb: carefully curated classics over the Top 40 we'll have forgotten in a month. And if the venue and crowd call for it, closing the set with a touch of French Touch House is never off the table.
As a producer, his catalog includes collaborations with The Game, KRS-One, Mobb Deep, Kool G Rap, M.O.P., Onyx and Lords of the Underground (just to name a few), and has surpassed one million streams.
