7apes is a producer & multi-instrumentalist based in Berlin. Early participations in trip-hop, UK-electro, jazz, reggae and heavy metal bands, and a long-standing activity as a producer and songwriter for other artists paved the way to lush drum patterns and sloppy bass lines, jazzy chord progressions and futuristic synths. His African roots are omnipresent in his rhythm heavy, sample fueled productions, with an unerring aim for the right vibe. As an operative part of the network & label, 7apes calls Block Opera his home for his instrumental works.
