Welcome to SmallBeats Productions Official Myspace page.
I was born and bred and currently still reside in Manchester.
I lived in Moss Side for good part of my early years then moved over to Old Trafford (M16) at the age of 9.
I started out like most producers MC'ing with school mates, but as I got older I gradually grew more of an interest in music. I would spend all my money on cds, tapes and vinyl and would never leave the house without a walkman.
Music has always been a massive part of my life. I reckon I would have been a DJ if it wasn't for my hunger for doing beats.
I started out using ACID Loop based production tools. Putting together little drum patterns and layering samples over them. But 3 years later I'm more experienced and have learned everything I can about Music production, recording, sampling, composing, mixing and mastering. Most of my knowledge has come from other producers, DJ’s experimentation, books and videos. I've got a bedroom studio and use various tools including Cubase, Reason, FL Studio and external keyboards Yamaha, Axiom 61...... But I can get on Macs too and have used Pro Tools and Logic. I've also recently been using live drums. So look out for me, black Ringo.
I've got loads of influences and feel inspired by most music whether it’s Rap, Rock, Soul, Indie, DNB, Electronica or whatever. I think it’s definitely healthy to keep my mind open for ideas. People who know my productions would definitely say SmallBeats Productions is 'Diverse'.
Although, most of my inspiration comes from US Rap and UK Grime.
I think this does filter though into my productions but keeps that diversity, which is what defines my style.
More recently I’ve been working with various independent artists around Manchester and have started branching out and working with artists around the UK, mainly London and even collaborating with artists overseas in the US. Advances in modern technology have made this possible.
I'm open for collaborations so if you require original and modern bangers for your MIXTAPE OR ALBUM!! HOLA AT YA BOY FOR MORE INFO!!
