Murge

A sonic alchemist, Murge weaves the eclectic and the electric to create dancefloor-centric beats that fill the space and lift the crowd. Unorthodox sounds intertwine to create an expansive aural journey filled with fresh, earthy bass and neoteric instrumentals. Championed by the legendary Sasha and signed to Emacipator’s Loci Records, Murge’s influences are wide ranging and free flowing; from the Cosmic era of disco to psychedelic jazz, from Latin rhythms fused with the elasticity and inclusiveness of world-inspired music. His debut album now has over a million streams to date and his new monthly residency, ‘Murge’s Magic Hour’, on influential UK digital radio station Bloop London, is already one of the station’s most streamed shows. Cusp // Journals is a transatlantic collaboration with Frameworks, indicative of the creativity and collaboration that fuels Murge’s journey. Born of both artists’ desire to perform live again and as a way of honouring the many venues they, and so many of us, find sanctuary in, this joint release is a testament to and celebration of packed dance floors and late night tales. And what a sound; downtempo, organic house fuses with moody sonic textures to create sublime dancefloor grooves. Proceeds of the release will be donated to the venues that shaped each artist.
