jing kohn ample soul for all
transmitting from inside the vibe
let those filtered basslines and neck snapping beats you fell in love with the first time you heard it wash over you Favorite track: Veya.

Randy Lowe It sounds new, yet nostalgic. You see shades of the producer that contributed to the soundtrack of one of your favorite anime. But here's the difference: that guy back then, couldn't have made this now. This is beyond simple beat making and repeating patterns. This is a different level of music composition and production. This is a different Fat Jon. Favorite track: You Don't Know Me.

about

Renowned for his pioneering sound, fat jon (Jon Marshall) stands as a defining force in atmospheric hip-hop. As a co-founder of the trailblazing Cincinnati group Five Deez, fat jon helped carve out a new space in underground rap, blending boom bap rhythms with jazzy, spacey textures and electronic flourishes. His solo projects, including his work as Maurice Galactica, have solidified his reputation as a visionary producer. With a career spanning decades, he continues to inspire generations of beatmakers, seamlessly merging deep melodies with hypnotic drum patterns.

His latest album, Obscurity Continuum, showcases his unmatched ability to evolve and captivate. The 12-track instrumental journey begins with signature atmospheric hip-hop beats, rich with ethereal synths and compelling bass lines. As the album progresses, it morphs into energizing breakbeats, echoing fat jon’s distinct, uplifting sound. Each track reveals layers of his craftsmanship, offering a dynamic listening experience that bridges introspective moods and kinetic rhythms, affirming his status as a master of beat-driven storytelling.

“This place, the space from which I create… I’ve seen that I’m actually able to reach people from there.
There are questions about where I live, my nationality, if I’m alive or not, etc. What matters is where the music comes from.
This is the concept of the Obscurity Continuum.”

The album will be released on limited edition 99 copies vinyl LP and digital via Sichtexot Records.

Breath of Love

If you've ever heard Uyama Hiroto's Freeform Jazz, then be advised that this album is actually much slower. Actually, it sounds very similar to "Route 16" from that album. Unlike most albums which are up-tempo in one half and slower in the other, this album is slow throughout. If you enjoy that, you'll probably love this album. Others however may find it repetitive and strangely exhausting to listen to. Randy Lowe

Very relaxing or aggressive at times. This album is riddled with tons of emotion and amazing jazz production. edg3d9
