British multi-instrumentalist Luke Marzec on his new album 'Something Good Out Of Nothing (Side A)'

"Nothing brings you back to yourself like seeing an old friend” says British multi-instrumentalist, producer, and singer-songwriter Luke Marzec who has returned with his evocative new single, "Growing Up With You". The track is a deeply personal tribute to the relationships that shape us. Blending warm, vintage R&B textures with modern production, the soulful track is a stirring reflection on the power of shared history, the joys of reunion, and the enduring impact of lifelong connections. The song is taken from Something Good Out Of Nothing (Side A), which was released on March 28, 2025. SWOMP caught up with Marzec for an interview. "Those formative teenage years shape who we become, and the friendships that were forged then influence the way we love, connect, and see the world," Marzec continues. "I’m grateful to still have that group of friends who know me better than I sometimes know myself. This song is a toast to late nights, deep conversations, and the joy that carries us through life’s ups and downs." Written over several months and inspired by the stark beauty of the windswept landscapes of Dartmoor in South West England, "Growing Up With You" combines a haunting saxophone drone—manipulated through the Morphagene sampler—with a lilting drumbeat, bass, and piano. The result is a hypnotic groove that evokes both the nostalgia of youthful adventures and the grounding comfort of old friendships. The song, featuring live drums by David Beauchamp (Johnny Flynn & the Sussex Wit, Jeffrey Lewis & the Junkyard, Dr. Dog) and bass by Marzec, was recorded in his studio in Buckfastleigh, Devon UK, capturing an intimate, organic feel. Citing the soulful rawness of Alabama Shakes’ “This Feeling” as an influence to the song, his ability to weave storytelling with intricate production results into the experimental warmth of his own unique sonic palette is both deeply personal and universally resonant. As a continuation of the themes explored in his previous single, "I Can’t Get You Out of My Mind," Something Good Out Of Nothing is a reflection on memory, connection, and the paradoxes of modern life. Marzec, known for his genre-blending approach, fuses vintage soul, jazz, and electronic elements to craft a sound that is as timeless as it is contemporary. Having studied classical and jazz styles at the Royal College of Music and Trinity Conservatoire, Marzec first broke onto the music scene with his debut EP Chances in 2017. His journey has since seen him collaborate with acclaimed artists, including Maverick Sabre, VC Pines, Benjamin Francis Leftwich, and Jazzanova, as well as Johannes Brecht on the widely appreciated Voicing Something—remixed by Adriatique. Marzec continues to push his musical boundaries with Headroom, a London-based jam session that he hosts, featuring top jazz and electronic musicians from across the city. He is also part of Lazy H and the Loose Cables, an experimental synth-jazz group known for its avant-garde soundscapes. Follow him at https://www.lukemarzec.com/.
