Babido's Theme by Daev Martian
STY TRU BTS drops Babido’s Theme, Daev Martian’s textured and imaginative opener, blending nostalgia, beats, and cosmic hip-hop vibes.
Kicking off his forthcoming album, the single opens with the sound of a child playing—a subtle nod to his recent journey into fatherhood—before rolling into hip-hop flows with a trace of Latin Swing, layered bass, broken electronic textures, and celestial, floating vocals. The result is a chilled, upbeat ride: soulful, futuristic, and unmistakably Daev Martian; a forward-thinking hip-hop journey with heart and imagination.
Hailing from Johannesburg, South Africa, Daev Martian is a boundary pushing producer who blends hip-hop grit with jazz sensibilities, electronic experimentation, and a soulful edge. A longtime collaborator with Stay True Sounds, Sió, and the SA collective Nlite, he crafts tracks that are innovative, tight, and sonically immersive.
