Marquis Hawkes – “Summer Memory”
Earlier this month Berlin based electronic don Marquis Hawkes churned out a brand new track ahead of the release of his album. Well, his album is out now thanks to the folks over at Houndstooth and we just wanted to revisit the exquisite track “Summer Memory” to give you a taste of what you’re missing! This soulful electronic cut kicks things off with soothing jazzy instrumentals that lead into a potent drum treatment and a special electronic guitar riff that completely has us losing our cool. (more after the jump)
Suddenly you’re hit with a slew of instrumentals and styles that shouldn’t be together in one track, but somehow Marquis creates a totally fresh new groove that will peak your curiosity up until the last few seconds. Its a crossroads of hip-hop, jazz, electronic, rock and house that keeps on giving! Catch the genre-defying gem down below. And grab your copy of the album here.
