The Engenius Interview

Engenius: Why the live show now?

Marcus Bell: A stream is a moment. A room is a memory.

Engenius: How do you build a setlist?

Marcus Bell: Around emotion, not track order. Take them up, bring them down, leave them wanting.

Engenius: One mistake artists make on stage?

Marcus Bell: Performing the record. The stage isn't the studio — it's a conversation.
