“i am so overcome with emotion. I hope Cory Rosen realizes how much this means to me. this is the first award i have ever accepted because i respect all the behind the scenes work he does for our local Lancaster music scene. people like him MAKE the music scene.

i have never gone on a podcast before because of my speech impediment! but his vibe is so kind & he shared his struggle with a similar disablility. i felt comfortable with my social anxiety. so i am literally i tears right now” – Benjamin Oaks

monster dancehall / reggae album ‘HIERONYMOUS’

“it’s FINALLY READY! my monster of a mega album which has consumed my creative life the past 9 months is FINALLY READY to SHARE! 🤯😍

this album has taken me about 9, 10 months, which is like 5x longer than any other recent album of the past few years

this album honors two of my biggest influences:
hieronymus bosch
& reggae / dancehall / maroon culture

the past few years m musical journey has been mixing trap beats with soul & reggae elements

these instrumentals were made during my daily beat meditations

they are a bit too busy for vocal collaborations
so i release them for your enjoyment & enlightenment :)”

warm up like a “Summer’s Day”

Rad music blog Death or Desire gave a truly incredible review of “Summer’s Day” – a spoken word + jazz collaboration between our cofounder & creative director BenOaks & new lyrical artist LEE MORR.

“a beautiful blend of spoken word and jazz that captures the essence of a lazy summer day spent with a lover. It’s a must-listen for fans of Jazz Fusion and those who appreciate the art of spoken word.”

“Summer’s Day” can be downloaded only on Bandcamp!
