Unbeatable Labz















The A-side comprises 4 tracks (2 minutes each, constantly varying in terms of construction and main theme) elaborated either for DJ battles or home listening.

Also on the A-side is a scratch skip ( 66.6 BPM ) divided into 4 parts :

· Beat-Juggling (various sounds + rythms),

· Scratch Music (synths descents),

· Drum-Kit (about 70 kits) for producers or DJ’s doing Scratch Music,

· Skip-Proof scratch (sentences, words, voices).

Lastly on the A-side are 10 “infinite beats” (infinite grooves) specially made to practice your scratches over.

The B-side starts off with a 4-minute, Grime-influenced, 90 bpm scratch sentence (about 400 original sounds, not a single one being taken from another scratch record).

There are 7 electro-grime-battle inspired tracks, specially made for DJ competitions.

To sum it up, this record is the perfect mix of battle records, and composing DJ’s tools.

Unbeatable Labs was created, elaborated and mixed at the “Unbeatable Factory” by Alexandre Vidale.

The sleeve was designed by Inkunstruction (www.inkunstruction.com). They also did the whole visual campaign on Funkstörung’s latest album, as well as for the Ethnies brand (skateboard) and many others…

It was mastered at Studio Linster (Luxemburg) by Mike Butcher.

It was put to pressing and remastered at Translab (Paris).

Pressed at M.P.O.

It took me a whole year, working almost full-time to create this record. I went through some recent tracks just to find the sound or drum kits that haven’t yet been used on a battle record.
