Description
Wax Museum Records (Australia) is proud to present their sixth label release from Melbourne’s own, Dyl Thomas (Milwaukee Banks/Polo Club/Pang Productions).The beat tape came to life as Dylan explains; “I was one
of those kids that grew up on a steady diet of 90's
hip-hop. There was something about it, something
spiritual, something raw and unfuckwithable. I admired
the producers sounds, and how they were all using
simular equipment but able to get their own style that
was distinct. Pete Rock is just one among many i
admired and looked up to.
I had been listening to a fair bit of newer music at the
time i made this tape. I sat back one day and said ‘you
know what, imma go back to basics and make some
head nodders’. So i pulled out the MPC 2000XL,
listened to a shitload of Pete Rock records and just
made like 4 beats a day for like a week, and this is what
came out of those sessions, raw loops and beats taking
inspiration from Pete's music.”
The result is a 12 track beat tape of original soul sampled productions by Dyl. His montage to the one and
only Pete Rock. Originally set for a digital release, once
we heard the full tape we had to put it on wax!
