This was really cool. I love when Ableton showcases artists.

His sample collections are not just ambient sounds, but also pieces of memories.

Refreshing to watch someone develop their own art as opposed to following everyone else. This is what art really should be.

I like KMRU's creative flow. Cool perspective on music making.

All hail Ableton for doing that - but most of all - all power to this guy KMRU. Truly deep and inspirational. Fantastic

I love KMRU's vibe and I love Ableton for making videos like this! Inspiring indeed.

Just saw KMRU at the Barbican in London with Cortini. Amazing, intense and loud. Very good. So nice to see the Lyra 8 so well controlled and the visuals were just glorious.

I love the playlist. It's motivational, inspiring and sometimes very meditative.

Kudos KMRU your music has amazing depth & character. It was great to learn about your influences and creative processes. 😊

What a amazing way at looking at music, thanks so much for this.

This is a fascinating peek into a very creative mind. Thank you.

Fantastic take and realization on changing your sound scape to change your music. Much appreciated KMRU!

Best 11 minutes of my life in the last few weeks. Thanks for sharing this documentary that adds such depth of extra information to our understanding of KMRU and his music. I’m excited to go and learn about his grandfather’s work too.

I'm ever learning new things from you. Thanks Kamaru for all the great stuff you are doing for the community and inspiring change.

love the music. very glad to learn about KMRU.

ayyyyyy one time for 🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪 #abletonnairobi

from Kenya with love.... long live soundsafari artists!!!

pleasure to watch and listen

beautiful, inspirational . Thank You

beautiful piece. inspired to get out and capture more field recordings + enjoy some KMRU music

Wow, so interesting, amazing to hear someone talk about sound in the way that he does. Gonna go find his channel now!

Fantastic feature. KMRU 👏

Great work as always KMRU.

Beautiful KMRU. Excellent work.

Amazing video, thank you very much for sharing... Big up! ^^

KMRU - Jar is such great and inspiring album. Really takes you places.

Please more of these documentaries!

Very deep and engaging music. The true artist is able to use all to create beauty. A very deep sensitivity and intelligence.

Totally love this, kaka! Great job! I’m so proud of you.

fantastic insight and advice for anyone working in this aesthetic!

Def feel the man. I strive to be different, that's what feels good to me. Everyone should be authentic, we all dont fit in the same genre

More people like this man please, let go of rhythm and more focus on what emotes from sound.

woahhh 🔥🔥 love the effort and intention made to communicate how reflective and introspective this process is. Thank you for sharing!!!

Talking about the influence of his uncle, there is so much experience behind this music in terms of influential development. I guess the listener would not guess that the music was from an African source but that may be the influence of Berlin and his contemporaries there. It makes me glad to see someone from Nairobi getting the chance to experience these other things. I have some electronica from musicians in Kampala, Uganda, where the approach is radically different to European sources I know. I used to worry that African musicians moving in the mainstream would spoil this kind of regional identity and originality but mostly the process is an exchange. To work in "Pop" there are big compromises to be made, whoever you are, wherever you are from. If you are not interested in that industry arena, you can keep your freedom. You get to keep your individuality and your dignity.❤

I much like his thoughful approach.

Good stuff @ableton love ur videos. 👍🏻

Beautiful and so inspiring, lovely portrait...

Freakin amazing docu, I love KMRU.

Re piola el men

Прекрасная история 😌✨👌

drainnnn ganggg

I’m inspired. African ambient, you can’t go wrong!

Really cool approach and energy. Would love to know what mini wind screens he’s using. I would prefer those single mic screens more to the bigger overarching one I’m using. Pointers would be much appreciated.

"I do want to make something different" sounds like Four Tet and Bonobo

I need to find a nice field recorder and mic boom ... ☮🔥

Kenya FTW

9:04 what he is using to mix 8 channel audio?

What kind of microphone do you use

what s the headphones that's on him?

A student and six Genelec monitors? Gratulation.

exactly next to these rails i lost my keys last month.

:43 Dude straight leaped off the bus

when will Ableton be supporting muti-channel tracks?

bro has a Lyra 8, Razer laptop, chase bliss pedal, midi keyboard, audio interface and a top of the range field recorder and is taking about not having much, the irony hahahaha
