Trappist-1d (Album - 2023)
Trappist-1d speaks of the search for a home. On this journey to an Earth-like exoplanet, many everyday problems are addressed. Our environment is known to us, but a distant planet is not. Often we strive for the unknown and escape the momentary state, despite not knowing if the destination will really be more pleasing. The album is intentionally not written explicitly because the story is meant to represent a struggle that most people deal with to a certain extent.
The Journey is the goal is one of the main topics of this album. As you go, you learn about what it is that you want and where you are really going, as long as you go. Eitherways you always bring yourself along on the journey and only changing the environment, will not immediately satisfy you and will still have to work on living a good life.
Musically the Album is very diverse and ranges from Soulful Hip Hop Beats, to funky grooves, Dubby Basslines and instrumental parts all the way to African percussive elements and even trappy drums. Most drums are live played though by Producer REEL BEETZ, which give this Album his unique touch.

2012 trap infused sonics mixed with fast rhythmic rapping is what makes this ep stand out. the synth and 808 heavy productions by strychine give this ep a unique throwback trap vibe. closing the ep with a more introspective look the song roots speaks about jay jules’ relationship with hip hop
U.N.I.T.E.D. (EP - 2021)
The 6-track EP plus Bonus Cypher is a call for collaboration in the otherwise very self-centered rap world led by lone wolves. The compositions are all written by talented young multi-instrumentalist Gabiga. The EP with soft lo-fi beats which often contain live elements like, guitars or electric bass, reflects a dreamy state, fitting to the utopian idea of a united world. Each song is enhanced with guest rappers, creating diverse perspectives related to the different themes covered on this EP. Every letter of the word U.N.I.T.E.D. represents a song throughout the EP.
One Shot (EP - 2019)
One shot is the first approach to recording live music and a band and also producing the songs myself. The pounding drums and heavy snth bass gives this ep a uniqe energy that electrifies the listener.
Cripple Life (EP - 2017)
born out of boredom this demotape reveals the musical ideas i have had since i was young; raw, diverse but also smooth and thoughtful. There was nothing better to do than to make music while being locked at home with a cast on my foot.
