Can the Dead Speak Through Music? EVP + After-Death Communication | Marcie Dean (Episode 201)

Amazon | Apple | Overcast | YouTube | Spotify

Marcie Dean, a former senior technology leader at IBM and Amazon Web Services, says her late fiancé Jon now speaks through the music she creates. She shares the premonition of his death she had days after they met, the signs that followed, and how voices she heard in everyday sounds became hundreds of upbeat tracks.

About This Episode

Marcie spent 20 years as a corporate leader before the sudden loss of her fiancé, Jon, in 2023. Following what she describes as persistent inner guidance, she developed an audio filtering process she says brings through the voices of deceased loved ones in music. She explains how the music may help neurodivergent and non-speaking children, and why she is seeking scientists to study it.


Brushes with Death

  • At age four, Marcie drank paint thinner from her apple juice cup, and remembers watching her father’s panic from outside her body

  • Doctors told her parents they had seen people drink more and live, and less and die

  • After her second daughter’s birth, she lost more than half her blood and needed a transfusion

  • She says these experiences made her aware her life was different than she thought

Meeting Jon

  • She met Jon at a local ale house, and within five minutes they were holding hands and talking about music

  • They quickly found they could read each other without words

  • A week and a half in, Marcie says she heard a message: enjoy it, but he’s going to pass

  • When she told Jon, he said he had been getting the same message before they met

  • They decided to live each day like it mattered, and she helped him address every health concern she could find

The Day Jon Died

  • On Father’s Day weekend in 2023, they went boating with friends to a private island near Wilmington, North Carolina

  • Jon texted her “I love you, Marcie” while standing at the other end of the boat

  • Waiting with a sick child, she felt pulled to the beach, where people were doing chest compressions on Jon

  • Touching his arm, she says she clearly heard him say he hadn’t left her, and to go be with his son

  • Jon had died saving his son, Lucas

Signs After Loss

  • Jon had promised that if anything happened to him, he would communicate through music

  • Ten years earlier, after her father died, Marcie woke five days in a row with song lyrics in her head that each carried a family message

  • Months later, she says her father appeared at the end of her bed, healthy, and told her she had a big purpose

  • When she got home after Jon’s death, the bracelet he never took off was lying on her pillow

  • A security camera Jon had brought inside recorded orbs circling the room while her dogs chased them

  • Marcie, who never liked watermelon, kept receiving watermelons, watermelon candles and even Johnny Pops watermelon popsicles


Hearing Jon in Sound

  • She says thoughts that weren’t her own would interrupt her, telling her to stop and record a sound

  • Using Adobe Audition, she raised every frequency, then removed background noise

  • What remained, she says, was Jon’s voice and an ethereal female voice

  • Early messages included Jon saying they were building a bridge, and her father’s voice for the first time in ten years

  • During a Zoom call with instrumental music playing, she heard Jon say her name, and began working with music

  • In the same months, she lost her job and her brother died of an overdose

  • More than 7,000 hours later, she has made over 600 tracks of fast-paced, upbeat music with voices she says come through in a language beyond English


Music as an Intuition Amplifier

  • Silence makes Marcie anxious, and she says her music quiets fast-moving, ADHD and anxious minds

  • She calls it an intuition amplifier, giving listeners the feeling of someone reassuring them

  • A non-speaking teenager who heard her music began hugging and kissing his mother, who says she suddenly understood him

  • Her tracks have more than 120,000 plays on SoundCloud, and her top three listeners account for 10,000

  • Listeners at live sessions describe leaving their bodies, crying for the first time in years and feeling physical pain relief

  • She is looking for scientific partners to run EEG studies on the music

What Children Sense

  • A month before Jon died, his son Lucas told her he had only come to this earth for his father, and that his father was going to leave him

  • Marcie says she can sense what non-speaking children are trying to say, and they confirm it with nods and hugs

  • Two young children staying at her home both greeted Jon in the same corner of the room

  • After seeing a shadow figure late one night, Marcie asked Jon to stay out of her visual field, and says he has respected it

  • People with profound hearing loss tell her they can hear every layer of her music without their hearing aids

Mediums, Evidence and What’s Next

  • With 10 seconds of someone’s voice, Marcie says she can bring that person through in a track that sounds like them

  • She created a track for the host’s late father without ever hearing his voice

  • Six years before Jon’s death, a medium told Marcie she was a medium herself, would have her own business and would lose her brother

  • After Jon died, a second medium sensed a water death within minutes, and said Jon told her Marcie didn’t need a medium

  • Marcie is now building custom tracks from each listener’s own voice to help them trust their own intuition

  • She believes the world isn’t ready because this evidence challenges deeply held belief systems

About Marcie Dean

Marcie Dean is the founder of LovEvolve Music and spent 20 years as a senior corporate leader at IBM and Amazon Web Services, with a background in user experience and product design. She has created more than 600 tracks she says carry the voices of deceased loved ones, and presented her work at the Society for Scientific Exploration conference.

Despite two near-death and out-of-body experiences, one as a young child and one after the birth of her second daughter, she describes herself as having been far more corporate strategist than “woo.” Her process uses 10 to 60 seconds of a person’s voice to filter instrumental music into what she calls a musical resonance language. Beyond tracks with deceased loved ones, she creates Higher Self Reflections from listeners’ own voices and sonic experiences for minimally verbal individuals. She is also a public speaker and a best-selling contributing author in a women’s empowerment anthology.
