Show Notes
My guest this week is Rhode Island producer, composer, and MPC expert, araabMUZIK. We spoke about the scores for Jaws, Terminator 2, Jurassic Park, and Scarface, pioneering finger-drumming on the MPC, transitioning from producing for rap icons like Cam’ron, Styles P, and Jay Electronica to embracing trance and dance music, the pros and cons of scoring a film for the first time, and the creative process behind composing the music for Harmony Korine’s surrealist action movie AGGRO DR1FT. Come fuck with us.
The AGGRO DR1FT score is available wherever music is sold, streamed, or stolen. Follow araabMUZIK on Instagram and Twitter (@araabMUZIK)
