Soul-drenched glitch-hop that pairs live blues guitar with warm analog funk. High-energy electronic grooves for golden hour festivals and open-road drives.
Marvel Years is the moniker of Cory Wythe, a Vermont-based producer and guitarist who emerged in the early 2010s as a key figure in the 'electro-soul' and 'future funk' movements. His sound identity is built on the intersection of vintage soul/rock sampling and contemporary glitch-hop production, heavily distinguished by his proficiency as a live blues guitarist.
Wythe's career arc began with early releases on Gravitas Recordings, where he gained immediate traction for his ability to remix classic rock staples (like The Who and CSN) into modern electronic anthems. Culturally, he occupies a space alongside artists like Pretty Lights and GRiZ, bridging the gap between the jam band circuit and the EDM world. Critical consensus highlights his technical maturity and his success in maintaining organic warmth within digital frameworks. His influence web extends from classic blues legends to the mid-2000s hip-hop production of J Dilla, resulting in a catalog that is both danceable and deeply melodic.
