About Øbed

Øbed is a Ghanaian artist creating music from the heart of the capital Accra. He is a singer, multiple instrumentalist and a self taught music producer and audio engineer. At the young age of 6, his father taught him to play the piano. From a heavy christian background, he played the keyboards in church where he developed a musical ear and occasionally picked up the bass and lead guitars. He developed an interest for soul, funk and jazz music and would spend hours studying legendary jazz pianist Herbie Hancock and American Keyboardist and record producer Robert Glasper.
Growing up, Øbed was inspired by Jon Bellion to pick up music production. He toyed around with Ableton Live and FL Studio and later Logic Pro. He began making music for the fun of it. Øbed has composed with renowned Ghanaian Gospel artist Cwesi Oteng on numerous projects and has served as his keyboardist on numerous live shows. Øbed has also produced a song for Amaarae dubbed “Spend some time.
Øbed is a cofounder of the Ghanaian creative collective Superjazzclub (often stylised as Superjazzclub), together with Ghanaian artists BiQo, Seyyoh, Tano Jackson and Ansah Live. His sound is usually influenced by old soul and funk music mostly very melodic and lush chords together with afro elements such as percussion and heavy drums.
He released his debut single titled ‘Søber’ which features his peers from SJC, Seyyoh and Ansah Live. The song was made available on August 19, 2018 and has since received positive reviews from some music enthusiasts. The artist is bent on exploring the sound and creating music that is timeless.
As an artist I’m more concerned about getting the art across the world so it is motivating to be apart of a project which shines light on digital artists. Collaborating with other artists means that I can listen and punch in my unique ideas to create magic. Collaborating with others also means that I get the chance to engage and see through the lens of other creative artists which I can channel to bring out a paranormal sound.
