from Alternate African Reality – Electronic, electroacoustic and experimental music from Africa and the diaspora, released January 29, 2020
KMRU (Kenya)

KMRU is a strong, independent and unique individual whose sensitive and abstract musical flow delivers diverse sounds with soul, warmth, ambient and a touch of nostalgia. Born in Kenya, Nairobi, KMRU was exposed to many cultures growing up. He picked up music at High School as a subject before joining the school’s choir where he would perform and help the teacher in transcribing music. As a young boy, KMRU was surrounded by musicians, Joseph Kamaru, his grandfather whom he grew up listening to alongside other eclectic selection including Bobby McFerrin, deadmau5 among others. At 16 he learned a few musical instruments with the focus on Classical guitar. He joined Kenyatta University and which he is majoring in Music Technology. His reason for studying music was because he felt that as a classical guitarist, he had to deepen his overall music knowledge; develop his music reading, advance his music theory and learn about music technology. Months later he discovered the art of music production through his classmates, Hendrick and Amenya, who had been producing for a year now. Making music followed with lots of experimentation and recording sounds. “I would always record class lectures and students laughing in class and mess around with them on Ableton.” Collaborating on the way with Hendrick, a year later, KMRU was signed with a German record Label, Black Lemon Records, in September 2016 jump-starting him to making more music and collaborating.
