About

I’m louidbeats a beatmaker and live drummer based in Nairobi, Kenya, bringing 7+ years of production and performance experience across Afrobeat, Drill, Trap, Gengetone, Dancehall, and Hip-hop. I focus on hard, punchy drums and catchy melodies, with an industry-standard mix and master that helps tracks sound ready for release.

I also perform live with drum sessions for churches and SCB rehearsals (Kenya House Complex), and I enjoy working fast—often delivering custom beats in 24–48 hours. Through freelancing since 2016, I’ve produced 180+ beats for local artists, and I’m always aiming to match my sound to the artist’s vision, whether it’s a new sound direction or a ready-to-drop project.
