DKODA - Not The Same

https://vehmix.bandcamp.com/album/compliment-a-samurai-champloo-tribute-tape

5th full length project. A tribute to my favorite anime series of all time. I watched it a couple of years ago and it amazed me how cool and badass it was. I would listen to Nujabes and Fat Jon a bit before watching, being inspired by their works and legacies. Once I heard about their contribution to this anime, I immediately had to watch, getting hooked to the story, beats, and all those fight scenes in the process.

I know I'm a bit of a late cat when it comes to finding out about this anime, but this is a tribute to Samurai Champloo, Nujabes, Fat Jon, and the many others who worked on it.

thank you <3 I hope this did it justice.

Dreams (Let the beat play)

Welcome to the many Dimensions of DKODA. I try to create audio worlds within my own sonic universe. 

*I mix creatively and not for radio, I have nothing mastered on here* 

I curate to help relate!

I’m on this grind 24/7 people, come along for the journey. My page just showcases my development as I practice beat making every day. I just post the results up on here as soon as I finish a new one. 

This page mostly acts as a personal record of all the sampled music I’ve made over the last 15 years, since I got deep into my MPC's and started teaching myself. I just make what I feel and try to translate what’s in my head so people can hear it. I was exclusively using Koala Sampler for iPad since September 2023 but as of June 2025, I now own an MPC X Special Edition so all new beats from now on will be made with that like the old days! Please bear with me as I try to master a new tool! This also means my 2 year iPad and Koala Sampler phase has come to an end 😢 I hope you enjoyed the 1400 beats I made with it!

Having synesthesia, I see the colours, shapes, textures and movements of the sounds in my mind whenever I hear sound/music, plus scenes in my head. I try and use samples to paint and capture what I feel or want to say. I’m all about the feel.

Thanks for taking the time to listen, comment and follow, it's definitely appreciated. All music produced by DKODA (Pronounced Decoder).

‘Top Tracks’ are not the best tracks!
