The Marzipan Kitten project is all about debuting poorly and then finding those incremental increases in quality with each album. Beholden to no one style, Marzipan has released three EPs and one album, 2014's celebrated Dream Traffic Control.
Featuring Nicole Walter aka Usagi Milku on saxophone, "They Call This Spring?" is an energetic and dancey combination of synths, guitar, and saxophone on top of a driving 128bpm rhythm section. Also notable as the first Marzie & Machine release with vocals.
Remix artist DWAIN reimagines three tracks from the 2021 chillwave EP Marzie & Machine: Tracing an Illicit Waveform.
These propulsive and engaging jungle remixes completely recontextualize the original works, as familiar melodies and harmonies peek through the kinetic and evolving rhythms and breakbeats.
This dark yet hopeful track takes listeners on a minimal synthwave journey, with a woozy lead line floating over a chugging synth bass and gentle pad.
The dreamlike music video portrays two samurai armies clashing on the battlefield before witnessing a momentous spectacle in the night sky.
Five hopeful tracks that arose from a local long-distance collaboration between Marzipan Kitten and Machine Learner.
Created during lockdown in Seattle WA from November 2020 to January 2021.
