082: NAMELESS Bedroom Beethovens

    • Music Interviews

Real talk, in 2015 when vinyl was making a resurgence in the hip hop game I blind-bought a Clear Soul Forces record from Fat Beats and the production made my jaw drop. Turns out the whole record was crafted by producer NAMELESS who still vividly remembers his earliest days crafting instrumentals as a teenager growing up in Flint, Michigan during the late 1990s. What that means for me is I can now sit down half a decade later with him to reflect on Flint, making video-game beats while being compared to other producers, being the first act on Street Corner Music, and the rise and fall of Clear Soul Forces. He's come a long way from making beats with the trial version of Fruity Loops and we run the gamut on a myriad of topics that explain and document his 10,000 hours.
