Finally a new release from Flex Unger. Port Beat Service is a series of albums that will focus on beats made with portable devices. Each volume will focus on a different device.Volume one is compiled of all beats made with the iMPC app by Retronyms. Most of the beats were made while commuting in the NYC subway system on an iphone. You can hear many samples of subway performers,subway sounds and even the sound of a plate vibrating in an empty sink all crafted into head nodding beats that fall into the music styles of dub,instrumental hip hop and braindance. The sounds of homeless subway singers,vibraphone players,asian instruments,bucket drummers and everything else the NYC subway has to offer sonically.All sampled directly into the app via headphone mic no additional equipment was used other than pro tools and some processing.The release date is of note because Dec 17th is Flex Unger's birthday.
