Detroit-born
Producer/Engineer/Songwriter Urb Tactics has been at it for
about 11 years. It all started in 1996 when he “borrowed” a
Casio keyboard from a high school music room. “When I was
younger, I was really into art…as far as sketching and
painting, I was actually pretty good at it, very good
infact….but as the years went by I simple became bored of art
altogether and luckily I gained access to a hidden talent that
I could have easily never tapped into, due to the simple fact,
back then, fruity loops and all these other silly programs
wasn’t popping’ off back in the 90’s…it was basically hardware
and if you didn’t have the money, you wasn’t going to have
it.” Urb spent hours in his room making “beats” with that
cheap Casio, even hotwired together a 4 track recorder with a
voice-activated recorder and a 2nd tape recorder. “What I did
was splice the wires from the microphone on the tape recorder
and crossed them with some wires from the tape recorder and
ended up being able to record 2 signals at a time….and I was
using cassettes and we all know how the cassettes could be
recorded over, but with a little bit of distortion, so I know
I was good for about 3 or 4 tracks and then I had to stop
[laughing]…those beats were beyond wack, but I was dedicated.
11 years later, Urb has stepped far and beyond a crude Casio
and tape recorder setup and now has equipment such as the
Roland fantom and the legendary Nord Lead 2x, “I’m a bit older
now and my money is right so I’m able to get my hands on
quality equipment and at this point, the music is paying for
itself, selling beats for a couple thousand here and a couple
thousand there, its almost like I’m getting the equipment for
free because whatever money music brings in for me, goes right
back into music, its an investment process….something that a
lot of the new jack beat makers out there don’t really
understand, they only understand a free copy of fruity loops
and a mouse in a lot of cases, which Software is fine….but if
you’re serious about ANYTHING, you should have no problem
putting money behind yourself and staying on top of upgrading
your tools for your craft, this is how it is in every
profession and music isn’t an exception.”
