Marcus Chen, who records under the name Clarifier, has been producing ambient and lo-fi music for over five years. Based in Seattle, the 28-year-old software engineer turned full-time musician crafts immersive soundscapes designed for focus and contemplation. His approach combines field recordings from the Pacific Northwest with carefully processed synthesizers and found sounds. Chen's work has been featured on several "music for productivity" playlists and has found an audience among remote workers and students.
