MIDNIGHT OIL - VOL 4

We go back in time to 1980 where Osamu Kitajima murders all artistic sensibility blending traditional Japanese music and Psychedelic Rock.

For VOL 5, we pick 'Masterless Samurai' as our sample of choice and these are its reinterpretations.

MIDNIGHT OIL - VOL 10

For this volume of midnight oil we decided to use a sample from a maasai tribe doing a religious chant. It was definitely a tough sample to flip but by the looks of it people had a really good time using the sample. 

Midnight Oil is a beat cypher where we put out a sample, a bpm and people make a one minute (sometimes more) long beat. We then gather their tunes and mix them. If you'd like to stay on top of future updates and perhaps make a submission, do follow us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/midnighttoil/
