Watch Mura Masa Make a Track by Sampling Random Records
Mass Appeal is back with a new episode of Rhythm Roulette, this time featuring British DJ/producer Mura Masa. The series challenges producers to make a beat by sampling three records, which are randomly selected while blindfolded.
Born on an island named Guernsey, Mura Masa is best known for his A$AP Rocky-assisted single, “Love$ick.” The breakout track appeared on his self-titled debut album, which was released in July. It also featured the singles “1 Night” featuring Charli XCX and “All Around The World” featuring Desiigner.
Mura Masa picks up his vinyl at Good Records in New York City. The 21-year-old then lays down a beat using samples from William Basinski’s 2017 ambient album A Shadow in Time and The Road’s 1971 rock album Cognition.
