Blank Code Podcast 237 – Marteka Fair

What this episode covers

Marteka Fair is a DJ and producer from North Carolina whose work explores rhythm as both structure and sensation. Her background in acoustic percussion informs a deeply-embedded control of time in her sets—favoring nonlinear layering, tonal restraint, and kinetic tension. Marteka is an active performer in the United States. Her performance resume features direct support sets for forward-listening electronic artists like Rrose, Rødhåd, DVS1, and Bloody Mary, as well as performances at Slingshot Festival and The Great Beyond. In the digital domain, she has recorded and released mixes for HÖR, Refuge Worldwide, and THF Radio, expressing sharp rhythmic architecture and hypnotic intensity through these recordings. In March 2025, she released a four-track EP titled “Ether” on Berlin-based W133—raw, spacious, and deeply rhythmic, with an emphasis on percussive structure and temporal tension. She is also co-creating Liminal Space, a live concert series with visual artist Fluxxss that merges sound and image into a shared, sensory environment.
