Zirafedge is the solo project of San Francisco-based producer/beat-maker Charlie Yen. He burst onto the scene in 2011 with his debut EP Pretty Things, followed by the dreamy synth-pop album Comfort. Comfort, described by XLR8R as "an overflowing slice of electronic pop with pleasant ambient and sample-laden instrumentation. In February 2013, he dropped "Needs," a mixtape on Daddy Kev's Alpha Pup label, an important label in the West Coast beat scene, and Pitchfork called him an "omnivore," but his bold sampling and clever edits of '80s and '90s pop and soul music are as much about the music as it is about the music itself. Pitchfork called him an "omnivore," and his bold sampling and clever edits of 80s and 90s pop and soul music were a true showcase of his versatility.In May of the same year, "Even Though," a track co-written with his ally XXYYYXX, was released on Kitsune as a five-song EP that included remixes of Teen Days and Slow Magic. The following year, 2014, was another active year, with the release of a remix of Janet Jackson's "Someone To Call My Lover" on SoundCloud, which received over 1 million views, and the track "Even Though" was released as a 5-track EP on Kitsune, led by producer/DJ A Tracks. In the meantime, he signed a contract with Fool's Gold, an excellent electronic dance music label run by producer/DJ A-Trak. No Reason" is his first physical release and a turning point in his career. The sound is a more refined version of his previous approach, with future bass and beat music that skillfully traverses chill, trap, and other styles. The song "Tell Me," with its chopped vocals and bubble wrap riff, is a killer tune that has become a hot topic of conversation around the Internet.Recently, she has also made a splash with her remix of R&B princess Tinashe, a rising star who also made her first visit to Japan, which has already received more than 700,000 views.
