Abstract Creations
This band consist of 5 hip-hop producers ( DJ Akademics, Hyconcepts, Kaftan from VSD, Iheartwhiskey and DJ Eye Con ) all coming out from North America, Europe and Australia. We rape the kicks, snares, and hi-hats. We have the smoothest drum patterns that'll make you flip.
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
We all just basically met and had something in common. It all made common sense to become a group of producers. Hopefully, we can add emcees in to the crew so we can produce for them.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
No, but we hopefully will in the near future.
