Marshall Watson

(Highpoint Lowlife) Releases || News

Marshall Watson has been busy cultivating his sound for many years now - from the regular club nights he ran in New Orleans (from '96 - '98, which involved a mutant hybrid of keyboards, sequencers, and the then-innovative pioneer CDJs) to his dub techno project Polar Frequencies to now. Having settled in Seattle, where he has befriended local hip hop producer and label owner Jeremy Moss of Zero BPM records, Marshall released his first track on a compilation of Seattle hip-hop and down-tempo.

Marshall's music indelibly leaves his unique mark on the indie-electronic landscape and injects a healthy dose of originality, soul, and a kick up the arse for anyone who thinks all you need is the correct software to make beautiful music!
