Marina Van-Rooy

Marina Van-Rooy is a vocalist from Liverpool who was active on the 1990s dance scene. Now dubbed a 'rave veteran', she was signed to Liverpool's DeConstruction label, where she issued a pair of heavenly house singles; 'Sly One' in 1990, and 'Let You Go' in 1991. The latter was remixed by Sasha. Both were club smashes and are considered Haçienda dance floor classics to this day. Marina was produced by the team of Ian Martin Wright, Steve Cummerson and Peter Coyle (ex-Lotus Eaters) who were also part promoters, with 3Beat and John Kelly, of G-Love, a legendary monthly Thursday night out at The Mardi Gras Club off Bold Street in Liverpool. These days, Marina is out of the music business and in recent years has been working as a make up artist.

Things were quiet for Marina after her last single until February 1992, when she recorded a radio session for Peel's show. She performed three new tracks; 'All Heaven's Open', 'Honey Drip' and 'Staying With Me', none of which were ever released officially.
