We got a chance to sit down with Trip Trop, two brothers from Los Angeles who refuse to have their sound siloed to one specific genre. Join us for our third Artist Spotlight to learn more about what motivates Michael and Matthew to create genre defying music, market their sound, balance producing and life, and create their own brand.

Lastly, a special S/O to the Artists We’re Watching this week: Runnit and BYNDED.

Our second Artist Spotlight is a very special one. Akki, is a tech house producer in Brooklyn by the way of Australia and Singapore. She is absolutely tearing up the NYC house scene and it’s only a matter of time until she’s in everyone’s ears. We had the good fortune of seeing her open up for Tchami at Analog in Brooklyn and that’s when we knew that we had to have her on the show.

As you’ll hear in this episode, she is more than just a producer/DJ – she is a role model and icon for women in the music industry. She supports and empowers female producers through her guestmix series “Midnight Snack”. The talent she showcases in the series is amazing; however, one must not forget that she has some serious talent of her own.

Listen to the episode to hear more about Akki, her thoughts on empowering women, the trends she sees, and much more.

And as always THANK YOU for listening.

Welcome to Episode 14 of Beyond the Beats. This week we started off with our brand new section – On Repeat. On alternating weeks, one of us will share a track that we cannot stop listening to (it may not always be edm).

In the new music section, we covered new tracks from Crankdat, Loge21, The Chainsmokers, Martin Garrix, and a Eric Prydz remix of Camelphat.

Delving into the world of EDM, the topics covered include the awesome production from Gesaffelstein’s Coachella set, more bad luck for Ultra, lineup releases, and the controversy surrounding Marshmello’s collab with Tyga and Chris Brown.

We’d also like to thank Akki – a future Artist We’re Watching – for inviting us to see her set at Schimanski, NYC. Samir discusses his experience and how awesome her set was. S/O to Aazure, Westend, and Will OB who Samir also saw play. Definitely some artists to watch as well.

Swipe up on the episode to find the full show notes; or check it out on Facebook at 2pm PST. Follow us on Instagram (@btb.pod); Twitter (@podbtb); Facebook (@beyondthebeatspodcast).
