Gramatik just dropped his first album in 2 years, “Epigram” and its completely free to stream and download. Gramatik, you are a legend among men. I’m four tracks in and this is absolute fire as expected. I am without speech, just turn the bass up people because this will guarantee to make your weekend.
“On my first few releases, I would sample music from the 40s, 50s, 60s and 70s that could be flipped in a cool way. I specifically like combining samples from like 5 or 6 different songs from different genres and different eras of music, taking bits and pieces of each song and warping and tuning them all together to form a new song. We call that collage sampling,” explains Denis Jašarević aka Gramatik. “I still do that sometimes, but for Epigram I sampled my musician friends. It’s a bigger challenge to make a good song that way, which helps me progress as an artist. You’re also able to achieve a higher level of originality, if you’re successful.”
Praise for Gramatik:
“At festivals and venues around the world, Gramatik turns bass music into a supremely musical affair” – THUMP
“Gramatik creates a whirlwind of genres that span hip-hop, funk, jazz, trap, dubstep, and everything in-between.” – THE HUFFINGTON POST
“Denis Jašarević is one of Brooklyn’s most compelling producers. His signature brand of electro-funk has helped to make him one of festival season’s biggest names.” – FREE WILLIAMSBURG
“Few EDM pioneers are making as much noise as Slovenia-born, Brooklyn-based artist Gramatik…he isn’t your average fist-pumping, build-and-drop kind of DJ. His music is rooted in blues and funk, like much golden age hip-hop.” – .MIC
