A collection of soothing tracks rooted in a mellow sound, with the distinctive wobble of AKAI’s shuffle groove. A sweet downtempo compilation crafted from a deep love of record digging, sampling culture, and the MPC! The new album from MR BEATNICK, a true East London B-BOY beatmaker, is out now on the renowned label 〈TARTELET〉. It offers a dreamy, intoxicating experience where the light resonance of acoustic instruments, the soft tones of synthesizers, and natural rhythms blend seamlessly.
Track List
〈KIT〉 We’ve stocked the latest album *Terra Arcana* by MR BEATNICK—who has amassed a large following as a longtime resident on NTS RADIO and through releases on renowned labels like 〈INTERNATIONAL FEEL〉 and 〈TIEF〉, as well as his own label 〈MYTHSTERY〉—an album crafted around his beloved MPC! Led by “Catania”—a track where West London-esque broken beats intertwine with Motor City-inspired, melancholic synths and fiery electric piano—the album features 10 tracks where countless influences are delicately woven into subtle nuances. “Footsteps In The Clearing” is also unique, creating a New Age-style soundscape with the complex, airy tones of the kalimba and delicate percussion. This masterpiece weaves together diverse inspirations and moods through the MPC, delivering a blissful listening experience from start to finish. (Original Japanese text by Akie)
