Eddie Merced’s ‘Spies in Berlin’ is out now via R4808n Recordings. Stream and download here.
Eddie Merced, the Connecticut DJ and producer, speaks a universal musical language with his techno and house fusion. Praised by Laurent Garnier as a rare guardian of soulful techno, Merced’s sound is deeply rooted in his musical upbringing, drawing inspiration from his father’s love for freestyle and early 80s electro.
Head of R4808n Recordings, Merced’s synth-rich productions have found a home on labels like Upon.You Records, MB Elektronics, Circus Recordings, and Mixx Records. As a DJ, he’s ignited dancefloors across the US, UK, and Europe with his high-octane sets. His music, celebrated by industry luminaries such as Colin Dale, Karotte, Ken Ishii, and Claude Young Jr, even caught the attention of Carl Cox, who incorporated Merced’s track ‘Tri-State Hustle’ into a hybrid live set at Ultra Music Festival 2022. Eddie Merced’s mission is to blend technology and soul, taking listeners on a forward-thinking journey while preserving the essence of techno’s roots.
