The very first "beat" I ever made, circa 1996.

Straight up hip-hop production, funny stuff
The Cybertron Sound. Just what is that, one may ask? Ask the one who coined the term, and he'll tell you, it's a state of mind, a time and place that can't be recreated, a time to which people wish they could relive. When you hear it, you just know you're back in those times. The collection of tracks you'll find here are bits and pieces of the The Cybertron Sound's greatest fan's take on the original creations, for personal projects. Just who is the man? No one knows; he goes by a ton of aliases. For the sake of simplicity, just call him Dr. Claw. Hardly anyone knows where he's really from, however it's safe to say he's a "Cybertron" native. Whatever the case, he's a man who seems to have a whole lot of time on his hands, enough to bring The Cybertron Sound to your home.

Story behind the song
This "beat" was from '96, and there isn't much to it. Around that time The Fugees' "Killing Me Softly" cover was all over the place: on the radio, on MTV, on whatever music outlet there was. Big ups to them, but man, I got tired of hearing it. This track (originally done as a test on Sound Recorder in an abbreviated version) is the first "beat" I have ever made. It's really just a loop of an existing song with a sample over it; nothing much to it. There are lyrics to this song, but it was stuff I wrote directly at those who surrounded me back in the day; this was an autobiographical track to a point.
