Tyme

Tyme is more than just your everyday run of the mill rap artist. Rather than follow the norm, he endeavours to tell stories in new forms, with intriguing insight and off-beat ideas crafted from an often obscure, yet brilliantly strange take on life and all its intricacies. An ability to pen these thoughts in a unique way over his own handcrafted music has resulted in an organic, contemplative and thought-provoking product in his first release, The Screen EP.

Since picking up the pen and pad at age 14, Tyme has followed his own path in music, one less travelled by the modern MC, one rich in a love and admiration for the syncopation within jazz music, the grit of golden age boom bap and the experimentation of electronica. This path unlike many others has been one of patience and dedication, not only to hip-hop music, but to music itself, in all its forms.

Seeking to incorporate his passion for saxophone with his love for the rawness of MPC-based production, Tyme has managed to produce hip-hop music in a way, which mirrors the obscurity and individuality of his ideas and concepts.

Hailing from a dense musical background in saxophone and composition has afforded Tyme a different approach to hip-hop music, an approach and thought pattern that is remarkably reflected in his distinctive and strikingly insightful music.
