Marjen "you are here. so am i." (2006)

Marjen "you are here. so am i."
(192 kb/s)

9 untitled tracks

Solid downtempo, some of y'all will find this worth checking out. If you're feeling it, support the artist by purchasing copies at Non-Existent Recordings.



From the press release:
"After years of hiding in the shadows of the Saskatoon, SK music scene while developing his own musical style, instrumental hip hop producer Marjen has put together his professional debut album 'you are here. so am i.', released on his own independent record label, Non-Existent Recordings. This project has a strong emphasis on melodies that range from dark to dream-like and drums that refuse to stay dull and repetitive and be relegated to the background, opting instead to make their presence known and confidently lead the songs. The result is a short, but powerful album whose songs gently, yet firmly, push aside the sometimes narrow boundaries of hip hop, as a result appealing to fans outside of the traditional hip hop audience as well. This is music made by a man who is not trying to reinvent the wheel of instrumental music, but rather trying to add his own personal piece to the bigger picture."
