IX is Marnix Dorrestein, a musical centipede whose talents seem unlimited. Marnix (Amsterdam, 01-03-1991) is a composer, producer, guitarist, poet, arranger, singer, drummer, thumb pianist and much more.
His solo project IX bundles all of Marnix’ strengths. The music as heard on his recently released mixtape displays an immense amount of love and knowledge of pop music from the sixties, seventies and eighties. A partly electronic instrumentation, exotic influences and the personal taste of the craftsman ensure, however, that IX sounds futuristic rather than nostalgic. IX does not focus on the charts, even though most of the songs the project generates are catchy enough to eliminate all exclusions of what may or may not happen.
