Since his start in the late 90’s, Q.Rock has evolved from DJ to rapper to the producer to engineer. Now, he finds himself in Los Angeles, juggling responsibilities as a musician and entrepreneur. His music output has suffered as a result, but all that stops now with this latest release!
“Tales From The City Of Refuge” is a short collection of songs that are “in the works” as Q says. In his own words “I’m tired of fussing over mixes in my bedroom and rehearsal studio. The mixes will never been completely done, in my opinion. Even when I think I have a sound that I like dialed in, I will change my mind in a few weeks and want to remix it or change everything, and that is also counterproductive. So I plan on releasing as much as possible, work in progress style.
I dump my early reference mixes on Soundcloud and YouTube, just to get a buzz going, then put them out on retail platforms like Spotify. Plan on future remixes for everything I work on.” DIY is the name of the game here!
The ep has nine cuts, all produced by Q.Rock639 except for “Same Old Story”, which is produced by Dekastro for Dekastro Music. The songs subject matter stick to the script, women, weed and personal woes. Q.Rock639 blends lyrical styles and beats, ranging from dancehall reggae to boom bap lyricism. Q.Rock639 plans on more releases to come this year as well.
Make sure you check out “Tale From The City Of Refuge” on Bandcamp now and on all major outlets in the next few weeks. Stay tuned for more info from Q.Rock639 as well!!
