Boom Bap In Quarantine

This project explores an adaptation of Baltimore Boom Bap Society’s approach to group improvisation in hip hop, through the conditions of social distancing during quarantine in 2020-21. I created initial electronic parts that I sent to musician friends, to which they recorded their own improvised parts and sent these back to me. I mixed in each person’s remotely recorded part and sent it on to the next person. A few artists were able to come to my studio in person to record. The process of creating these collaborative tracks became a way to maintain a feeling of connection to my musical community during the COVID-19 pandemic.
