“…freeing music by making music free…” – Gramatik
During the birth of sampling music, creativity and competition among disc jockeys made for a swell of original music. The technology of layering records/tracks with one another became a trend that continues today.
“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.
Epigram expands the complexity and sound from Gramatik. The international touring producer, digs deep within himself to find new avenues to paint in musically.
This summer Gramatik will be touring in Europe and North America. On select dates, such as at the Summer Camp Music Festival and at Camp Bisco, he is set to perform with Big Gigantic and GRiZ together on stage as Big GRiZMatick.

“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.” – Gramatik
