I came across the hashtag #MinimalBeats on my Instagram (@marshenmusic) and I was inspired. I don’t know what others mean by minimal beats but this is me taking the idea and trying it out in my own way. I was surprised at how with just the simplest kick/snare drum loop and one ambient sample loop and Koala Sampler performer effects I could make such a simple beat remain interesting for four and a half minutes. Let me know if you agree or disagree :)
Dirt is easily one of the best Hip Hop songwriters and the founder of my crew Shadow of the Locust. You can find him popping up in my music often as well as in his own classic albums and new sounds! Planet Plex
Codak is the DJ/Producer/Emcee that mixed my solo album and he has blessed my projects with beats and guest appearences. He rips the mic with energy and a lot of heart! Planet Plex
Reveal is one of the newest Shadow of the Locust members and has a monster style and delivery. His street album "God Choosez the Foolish" is a great start and features cover art by yours trully :) Planet Plex
