In the ‘Valley of the Tiki Beats’, the pacific rhythms of exotica are transformed into tropical hip hop of a rum-fueled-faux-jungle. New Bang creates an immersive audio collage of exotica samples and musicians brought together over dirty beats and grooves. Nashville Hip-Hop Producer New Bang had always enjoyed sampling from often neglected exotica, lounge, and other strange records; but with the revival of all things Tiki, it’s the perfect to dedicate an entire project to this style of beats. Starting with just an MPC1000 and using records, ‘digging for exotica samples and dirty drums; the project soon grew in scope as musicians were brought in to add texture and melody. Though exotica has often been used as a trusty sample source, Valley of the Tiki Beats developed a unique sound of Hip-Hop Exotica.
