Marquis Compressor picks up right where under appreciated band Discovery (the side project of Vampire Weekend/Ra Ra Riot Side ) left off. It’s a mix of soul, electronic, and broken synthetic beats.

About this song
Alternative project from an influential London-based producer/engineer, Marquis Compressor is the secret alias that’s making music for music’s sake. The soul of r&b, the room-shake of filter house, the grit of alternative rock and the tight early-reflections of the eighties; it’s all there with crisp transients, exotic ambiance and dramatic effect. Named after the elusive piece of studio equipment, loved by many, updated by it’s designer unsatisfying so and defiantly never to be re-released or updated, Marquis Compressor (the band) parallels this steadfast refusal to conform to the masses whilst providing something unique, sought-after and elusive.
