MPC & SP-1200 Beatmaking (Core Roster Selector)

KNXWLEDGE (Knxwledge) is a documented selector and collective member of [CRATE] Low-End Crate Alchemists & Unquantized Beat Konductas. Representing Detroit, MI / Oxnard / Los Angeles, CA, KNXWLEDGE helped shape CRATE's battle wax legacy, hardware craft, and international sound system sessions.

“Rejecting rigid computer quantization, J Dilla turned off time-correction on his Akai MPC3000 to invent a human, drunken-time feel that reshaped modern music, while Madlib, Peanut Butter Wolf, and The Alchemist dug into Brazilian, psych-rock, library, and soul records worldwide.”
