(M. Marino, S. Robinson, A. Zavala)

While recording this EP, there were so many things that happened that constantly tried to break the guys down. But similar to the music they make they build on breaks. What doesn't kill you, makes you stronger.

A Break 2 Build On (feat. Intelligenz)

Ambesa makes music for the ones who been through it and still rise. A self-taught producer and rapper, his sound is raw, reflective, and unapologetically real. Blending gritty beats with sharp bars and spiritual undertones, Ambesa turns pain, pride, and perseverance into poetry.

Passionate about hip-hop in all its forms, my heart beats for the golden era in the US, the late 90s/early 2000s French scene (with legends like DJ Mehdi), and of course, Japanese hip-hop, which has had a huge artistic influence on me. Hydeout Productions, Takuya Kuroda, DJ Mitsu The Beats, Nomak, Nitsua… and many more shape my musical world.

I started as a deep listener, then moved into DJing and mixing, and now, I’m creating my own beats. No matter the evolution, the passion remains the same.

I also founded Ofa Music Group, a collective/label to honoring a specific era and musical aesthetic—where jazz and hip-hop blend seamlessly, where organic sounds meet lofi textures to create timeless atmospheres.
