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!

Kings in Crowns are a new hip-hop triumvirate that artfully combine edgy soul, fierce attitude, and a pinch of good ol' southern charm and grit. The group was conceived in 2012 by rapper Onehunnit and producer BIGfoot BEATS, who had met up and collaborated through SoundCloud. Soon after, Onehunnit called in fellow Dallas native Charley P. to complete the trio. Together they have a chemistry that not only complements each rappers' flow, but also emphasizes the raw power hidden in the mystical beats provided by BIGfoot. With this lyrical dynamism and the majestic and clever sound constructions, there is something captivating and almost esoteric about the music of Kings in Crowns. Its spontaneity will keep you on your toes, but the grooves it drops into are hard and fresh enough to keep your mind focused on the cadence and content of the words. And with influences that range from MF DOOM and Busta Rhymes to Curtis Mayfield and Stevie Wonder, it is no wonder that these three southern gents have created such an interesting and eclectic sound. Kings in Crowns are just starting to take their first baby steps as a group, but it is clear from their debut singles that they have the talent, vision and drive to conquer and reign in the hip-hop world. For now, however, they are just here to make killer music, to have fun, and to relax your mind

Old Moody Bastard Hip Hop as fuck making beats since 2007
