Marius Cultier was born in 1942 in Fort-de-France, Martinique. He was recognised a highly talented and gifted child who, at the age of nine, conducted with the L'Office de Radiodiffusion-Télévision Fançaise, the French national public broadcasting organisation. He also cut his teeth as a radio presenter, hosting a popular show 'Punch en Musique', a rapid and precocious rise that further cemented his name as a musical prodigy.

Cultier recorded his debut album in 1969 and by the mid-70s was crafting unique sound, a sound that was part jazz, part funk, and - most importantly - part Martinique. Indeed his debut album was entitled 'Marius De La Martinique' and by the time he recorded what is considered his breakthrough album, 'Ouelele Souskai', Cultier was on the way to creating a real buzz around this new style that was infectious, funky and laden with a distinctive synth signature, bubbling and stabbing keyboard lines and melodic flourishes to create a sound that is unmistakably Cultier, and only Cultier.

After many years, Cultier's 'Ouelele Souskai' is available once more, on a lavish vinyl repress, officially licensed and finally presented to that standard that Cutlier's music deserves.
