About Marc Ayza
Ayza’s artist-run Bandcamp identifies him as a Barcelona drummer and composer whose work moves between jazz and hip-hop. A 2026 New Barcelona Post profile places his home in nearby Premià de Mar and documents his continuing Barcelona role coordinating Jamboree’s Monday jam sessions.[1][2]
The reported profile traces his leader catalog from Deejah through Offering, the 2008 project that brought his interests in jazz, beats, hip-hop, and groove into a single ensemble language. Ayza’s Bandcamp preserves Offering alongside Live At Home, Deejah, and the earlier 1, 2, 3, ETC.[2][1]
Ayza’s later projects include Social Base, featuring vocalist and flutist Erin Corine, and Freedom First, which incorporates writing and live recitation by Keith LaMar. The Jazziam showcase profile documents the Social Base lineup and its blend of jazz, groove, electronic textures, and improvisation.[2][3]
