Marenn Sukie

Chris Roth, AKA Marenn Sukie is an accomplished sample manipulator whose richly organic sounds call to mind ‘Rounds’ era Four Tet and the sophisticated jazz of Cinematic Orchestra. Mining audio gold from the widescreen productions of classic 70’s music Roth balances an interest in contemporary beat culture with a winsome eye for the golden sounds of the past. “My tracks have usually around 30 different samples in one tune,” Roth explains “I make a point to never sample ‘loops’ – it’s a mix of pitching samples then maybe adding a synth for bass lines.” The Mosaic EP spans a wide range of moods and tempos – genre is fluid in the world of Marenn Sukie; house, drum n bass and jazz bleeding together, creating a beguiling blend all Roth’s own. Released May 11, 2018 – from Bandcamp
