Italian composer and musician Gigi Masin is somewhat of a living legend on the ambient music scene. His beautifully dreamy track “Clouds” from 1989 slowly began getting more traction in the mainstream when Björk sampled it in 2002 on her track “It’s In Our Hands”.
Masin’s music has also been a favourite to sample among hip hop artists, most notably when Post Malone sampled “Clouds” on his 2016 track “Big Lie”, produced by DJ Mustard, and on the track FLOATIN’ by Japanese rap group 舐達麻..
Masin continues to have his work sampled in music from all over the world and can count artists like Oneohtrix Point Never and Caroline Polachek among his fans.
