Meet AraabMUZIK And Watch Him Killing It In A Beat Battle | The Creators Project

We recently met up with AraabMUZIK to talk about his live beatmaking craft on the MPC, but more so to see the kid in action. Speed is no object to Araab, and it assists him in doing what no other producer can. Playing full compositions live without the assistance of a backing track, Araab treats the MPC as an instrument and pushes the outer limits of what it’s capable of. Whether he’s at the head of a packed club or seated at a table in the studio, he gets the same fierce look on his face as he leans back and effortlessly jackhammers the 16 pads with his fingers in perfect time.

His prowess got Araab noticed by DukeDaGod, who brought him on as a producer, having him create beats for Dipset artists Cam’ron and Hell Rell, among others. Despite his hip-hop pedigree, Araab’s 2011 album Electronic Dream is a bold foray into bass music, repurposing anthemic club hits into hard-as-hell cut time bangers. With such a move, Araab shed predictability, insisting that he won’t be pigeonholed.
