We‘re back! For „Samsara“ our two friends & reknowned label representatives @7apes & @itsmetheintern finally joined forces again to craft another beautiful & jazzy beat rendition - because it‘s a never ending cycle of creation & inspiration. Loop in & don‘t forget to add this to your favorite chillout playlist!
This was special: For „NBGL“ from upcoming album „Rebirth“ we teamed up with @johannesarzberger@silvanstrauss@7apes & @hazeofbass and captured a wonderful @blockopera live session in the newly opened studios of @livehub.berlin 🎥
Two more sessions incoming - super happy we found a proper way to showcase the musical genius behind the tracks - besides our captivating short films with our lonely astronaut. Feel free to support! ⛓️
We are beyond excited to share our second single „NBGL“ with you
Once again, the incredible @rick.yng and @dossnichtuno created an artwork and performance that doesn’t just accompany the track – it expands it.
This is only the second chapter – more singles will follow via @blockopera , each with its own visual cosmos, slowly connecting and forming the album.
Drop a 💚 and share your thoughts below.

After a brief solo hiatus with several successful singles, collaborations & side projects, it’s time to continue the journey of Berlin-based beat pioneer @7apes . For “Hell’s Kitchen” our label buddy & multi-instrumentalist does what he loves doing the most: Melting punctiliously played Hip-Hop drums with jazz-infused basslines into a heartwarming and spot-on jam for every music head’s joy. With @blockopera , 7apes is also gearing up for his 2nd studio album “Unlearning” in 2025 - stay tuned! 🔪
Introducing Block Opera’s holy trinity: @titus_martinu , @packed_rich & @7apes , who joined forces for „Blurry Boundaries“ live session at Delphi Theater in 2023, finally reunited in Berlin to hit the studio again. For „Trio Delphi“ each producer has added his own musical finesse, be it the dreamy guitar, the jazzy progressions on the Rhodes, or the piano solo that gets backed up by the hefty string ensemble to take the song to its climax. Rooted in hip-hop, this is modern, beat-driven jazz at its finest. „Trio Delphi“ out now! 🏛️
