1995 Speakerbox (BoomBap Instrumental - 90's Eastcoast type beat)

This beat here really reminded me of the late great Jay Dilla and his production work with the Slum Village 2000 "Fantastic Vol.2" LP.  The drum kit used was from Illmind Blap series 5.  The beat gave me a vibe of going shopping at high end stores for some reason so that is how I came up with its name.

Luxe Plex (BoomBap Instrumental - J Dilla Slum Village type beat)

Sunbeam (BoomBap Instrumental)

I track I made in early 2022 with old samples I had for 20 years that I never used until now.  I didn't know where this beat was originally going to go, but it felt uplifting to me so I named it "Skyline" since I felt like hovering over buildings listening to this.

Let me know what y'all think or hit the like!

Skyline (BoomBap Instrumental - D.I.T.C Drum kit)

When making this beat, I wanted a relaxing ASMR vibe but when I got the guitar sample and chopped it, I started to hear EPMD's 1989 single "So Wat Cha Sayin" and decided to play it like that.  The drums were originally programmed but I hated it and incidentally found a break off of Havoc's "Infamous Album Kit" from Mobb Deep's 1995 "Party Over".  This ended up being an interesting beat where you have a smooth ambient relaxing vibe mixed with elements of classic Hip-Hop.

Feel free to like, re-post, comment on your thoughts, or hit me up if you are an artist that want to collab.

Deep Concentration (EPMD vs Mobb Deep - Chill Ambient Hop Mix)

This beat was made during the Spring of 2022 with drums from the D.I.T.C Studios drum kit.  I'm a big fan of D.I.T.C. by the way with Showbiz, AG, Diamond D, O.C, Big L, Big Pun, and the rest of the crew.  I almost wanted to throw this beat away however since it was so minimal but ended up labeling it a "Keeper" afterwards since I still liked the vibe and eventually named it "Green Meadows".  I went back to this beat added more FX and with a little arrangement and processing on the drums, this beat is starting to really grow on me.  I'm thinking of doing an Instrumental album for 2023 and this probably will make the cut.

Green Meadows (BoomBap Instrumental - D.I.T.C Drum kit)

Please like and share if you dig it, it'll help me a lot in expanding my online presence.  I'm open to any artist collaborations as well.

This beat was done in early 2022 but I expanded on top of it a week ago.  The major change up was originally not intended but it was one of those things where I experimented using instruments and sounds in the same key and it seemed to work.  I liked the feeling and it gave this night to morning vibe to me so that's how I came up with the name.

The foundation of the beat was done on MPC software but mixing and second half of the beat was done on Cubase.  The drums are from the D.I.T.C drumkit I have so it kinda has a Eastcoast feel to it even though the instruments have a more smooth Westcoast vibe.

Better Day Tomorrow (BoomBap Instrumental)

This is another beat I did a while back but finally got to arrange and mix it.  I wanted to go with A Tribe Called Quest type of vibe or something similar and started off with the Rhodes piano chord progression and then laced the MPC drums over it.  Then I found random samples to build on top of the foundation and came up with this.  With all the random vocal sound FX added, it made me just come up with the current name for this beat. 

Hope you like it!  Let me know if you like or hate it and thanks for listening!

Live On Stage (Instrumental Boom Bap) [A Tribe Called Quest Vibe]

Waves and beach vibe hoping to be a relaxing classic hip-hop instrumental experience.

Waves and Sands (Instrumental Chill-Ambient Hop Mix)

Just another track off a new beat tape I'm working on.  This one uses hip-hop drum kits by illMind but I feel like it leans more chill ambient to me.
