The beat sets presented here are unedited and as broadcasted live on Sept 18th 2022. Special thanks to Prévention CDN-NDG, and to Suoni Per Il Popolo for sponsoring this event.
The following is the second of a 5-parts video series showcasing 5 beatmakers from the local scene.
BASTIANI.
Bastiani.'s beats are a melt of golden age sample based hip hop with new age instrumentation that is
guaranteed to keep a smooth head nod.
For this Montreal based music producer, music has always had a strong focus, whether as a listener and
fan, and as a creator. From his early teens he was attracted to the low end, sample based sound of
classic productions by other producers like Pete Rock, Q-Tip, Dilla & Madlib. Naturally interested in
instrumental music, this was the jump off point for creating beats of his own.
His latest project "Spheres." still captures that same essence and feel of his childhood's favourite music.
The feeling of being on a smooth ride through space or floating alongside clouds in the sky permeates
through the record. As mainly a beat tape producer, efforts are towards creating a smooth sound bath for
the listener.
In the spirit of embracing new things, this hiphop beatmaker continues to push himself to trying new
approaches to creating. Approaching music as a student, he continues to learn by listening to other great
musicians, taking what he can on the way. Nowadays, the focus is on experimenting and creating new
music on the build up towards his next project.
