The Beat Renaissance

Archive for the ‘ Video ’ Category

It seems I’m constantly on a quest to better the T.B.R brand by working with different and talented people so I had the oppurtunity to submit some music for 2 commercial specs the homie Berman Fenelus was directing. You can here in the background one instrumental joint that I stripped the drums to which was actually a hip hop beat of mine. You can here in the second commercial spec the music has a more House/Pop feel. So there you have it background music produced by BSKI alias BeatsbyBSKI for The Beat Renaissance. Shameless Plug.:^). One.




In October 2008 I stared on a journey to study audio engineering. I attended SAE Institute New York for 9 months taking up their Audio Technology Program. I learned a lot in these 9 months, but beyond the learning experience I meet a bunch of cool people. During project we would usually be bugging out with each other while we were recording. In the video below, I’m walking around the school on the last day of recording the the final project. I had finished my project earlier that day, so I was recording my other classmates as their were wrapping up their projects. Every room in the school was packed, so I stared walking around and asking everyone bout their experience at SAE. DASH 2 STAND UP!!!!!!



I have the honor and privelege of being the first to exclusively post the unofficial official Jay-Z Summer Jam performance “D.O.A” video . I shouldve post it sooner but better late then never. By far this is the best backstage/onstage video taken so far of Hovas performance at 2009 Summer Jam. Other blogs and websites need to get on it and post it. This video really needs some attention. Shot and edited by Director/Photographer Berman Fenelus with his Canon for AAC Films.

I’ve heard alot of remakes of classic hip hop songs. But I just feel this guy Kobane has a way making the song his while paying homage at the same time to the original. And “Bonita Applebum was my SH*T. So much that I had a cassette with “Bonita Applebum” on Side A and Side B when I was younger.Oh and I wouldnt let my cousin Michael give me a shape up if my life depended on it. Peace Mike. lol.

Following Kellons’ work for quite sometime I might say I was quite impressed when I saw this piece of work he conjured up for one of his last school projects. We actually went to see the screening of this short but yet potent and introspective look into the past of Mr. Innocents’ childhood years in Public School. I was impressed and inspired Kellon. You really stepped it up on this one. Cant wait to work again with you. Great work on this one.
