Crankin Joe - Riddimaker

Myspace Editor
Pimp MySpace

I started playing music with percussions like djembé and binghi while i began selecting with my brethrin Migwaan (Straight Sound System). Then I learned to play bassguitar playing above reggae versions till i met Mehdit8 with whom we formed a drum&bass section who became ''The Officials''- backing band in 2005. I started to create riddims first with a Korg M1, my Bass, and a Boss Br8 digital recorder, then i turned to a computer using softwares and plugins. My works are mostly inspired by caribbean musik but also from american and french Hip Hop productions. Since Now I’v collaborated with local Swiss and French artists like Karriah, CharlyB, Phat Cat,T-Angel, IllWill.... Contact me if you are interested by some riddims, basslines or percussions.
