About MARXOXO
Marxoxo is the bratty air-pop project of independent trans Filipina artist, Mar. Marxoxo’s writing pulls inspiration from personal drama, dreams, and diaries, snuggling lightly between the hyperpop of Charli XCX and innocence of Britney Spears. But more than that, it’s a juxtaposition of identities, reconciling growing up in a humble hick town with proudly growing into herself.
Marxoxo’s latest project, 𝘍𝘢𝘯𝘵𝘢𝘴𝘺 𝘝 𝘙𝘦𝘢𝘭𝘪𝘵𝘺, is a testament to their duality as the mini album chronicles romanticizing a toxic relationship then grappling with its dire dynamics. With poignant and fun lyricism coupled with crisp production and features from Boy Sim, Sabby Sousa, and Nitrah Neon, 𝘍𝘢𝘯𝘵𝘢𝘴𝘺 𝘝 𝘙𝘦𝘢𝘭𝘪𝘵𝘺 solidifies itself as a cult classic.
Marxoxo is a sought after fixture in hyperpop, alternative, and LGBTQ+ scenes, performing regularly and curating their own Club XOXO concert series. They’ve also been featured by tastemaker indie blogs, TIDAL’s editorial We Are Everywhere playlist, Grindr’s New Music Friday playlist, and Charli XCX’s “Charli” live tour.

About ‘ANYWAYZ’
Cult popstar Marxoxo casts an angelic spell in new airy-pop bop “Anywayz.” The R&B- inspired song was originally written as a “self guided meditation to tune out the noise and hone my diligence,” said the artist. Between the soothing synths and bouncing 808s, Marxoxo’s falsetto coos their tenets of self empowerment and ambition. With bratty lyricism that echoes Tinashe and angelic dream pop harmonies reminiscent of Yeule, she preaches resilience by “shaking it off like I am Mariah Carey.”
The release comes coupled with a choreographed music video featuring Marxoxo waking up in an impressionist dream world before breaking the simulation into the pop world. The video is a surrealist metaphor for the mental fortitude required to live your life authentically and unapologetically, a lesson learned innately in their identity.

My nickname is “The Amnplifier”. Why? Because around here my focus is on being a conduit for providing greater outcomes that people come here for. My day to day “work” is living in the moment, and I love helping others concentrate on finding their connection to themselves through their experiences.
Why start a music environment? The truth is I love music, I love writing, and I love life. I work with musicians every day, and I feel certain that I will be until they put me in the ground. I have been managing people in businesses of some sort for over thirty five years so along the way I have developed some “wisdom” from my regular and constant “observations”.
Amnplify your experience. That is what we want you to do here, and if you want to let me know why you do, or don’t, shoot me a message on Facebook.
Hope you enjoy yourself here and find something that hits you somewhere.
