This week on Behind the Beat, I sit down with producer Retrospec. We get into his early and current influences to building his signature sample based sound and how he approaches working with different artists. Retrospec also shares insight into his recent collaboration with LaPiri and his contribution to 83rd Strike with Passport Rav and Bloo Azul. We also talk about identity beyond the music, how his 90s-inspired aesthetic connects to his sound, and his thoughts on staying authentic in today’s fast-moving industry. And of course, we had to get into gear talk…including his take on the new Akai MPC Sampler. ?
