Hi! I'm Lee. Welcome to my blog. Here we talk music: news, reviews, interviews, tips, tutorials and more. I'm also working on the upcoming podcast Influenced as a guest, writer and researcher alongside music aficionado Mark Williams and friends. Watch this space! I have been a lover of music for as long as I can remember, an amateur lyricist for 25 years, a music writer for 15 years and a hobbyist musician and blogger for almost 10 years. My tastes range from jazz to house to hip hop and I love helping artists from all genres develop their sound. My music, videos, reviews and interviews have been featured in a variety of magazines and websites, including: B-Boy Tech Report Gimme That Beat Humanhuman Audio Skills Dream House Beats Where Did the Road Go Beat Tape Co-Op Push Power Promo Drum Magazine You can find my music on Bandcamp: Monkey Mind Sounds AKA LeeTNB And you can find me on Facebook: The New Beatmaker page Lee's personal page
An exciting bit of news. Life and Death Productions (of Anno Domini Beats fame) have just released their first drum kit, 'Life and Death Drum Kit Vol. 1', and, as a special gift, have made a selection of the samples from the pack FREE to readers of The New Beatmaker.
Included in this free taster pack are 13 hard-hitting drum one-shots, which will beef up your beats and help give your tracks a more epic feel.
The full kit has already garnered praise from producers Ear 2 Tha Beat (The Game, Onyx, Bushido), Dansonn Beats (MOP, Kool G Rap, ESPN) and Rhapsodist Beats (Tajai, Street Light). As anyone familar with Life and Death's work will know, the standard of these samples is top drawer. Enjoy.
