Arts The Beatdoctor

Residents in the area of Utrecht, The Netherlands, have reported seeing a certain shady figure lurking about the local hospital. This individual is dressed in some sort of freakish doctors’ attire, including coat, stethoscope and a scalpel the size of a small sword. It's rumored that he has been able to infiltrate the medical staff, referring to himself as 'a new kind of medical expert' called a 'Beatdoctor'. All that is known so far is that he goes about the hospital, indiscriminately prescribing unhealthy doses of cinematic, dark and melancholic hip-hop beats to unsuspecting patients. When confronted with these reports, the medical staff has been quick to distance itself from the practices of this shadowy individual, describing his brand of medicine as 'unusual', 'evocative', and in some cases even 'dangerous'. The point of his experimental treatments, and the side-effects they might have for his test subjects have seen rampant speculation from keen observers in the field. Now it seems his plans can finally be revealed...

Arts is currently working on his side project The Q4 (with producers Sense and STW), soon to be released on Project Mooncircle records, on a live performance with a choir at the Cantat festival in Utrecht, and on the follow-up of his critically acclaimed debut album Transitions.

Arts The Beatdoctor and FabFilter

"I use all the FabFilter plug-ins, all in different settings. FabFilter One features heavily as the bassline in my remix of Skiggy Rapz' "Sure Shot" (release: may 10th 2009, on the Bang To The Boogie EP), while the Timeless plugin can be heard when I'm performing, it's on it's own send track, making maximum use of the midi learn function to control feedback via a midi controller."

"FabFilter Pro-C is my weapon of choice for sidechain compressions within Cubase (which is convenient since it's in the VST3 format)."
