BEATDOWN Artist Profile: Baseck

Baseck got his start saving up lunch money and selling Nintendo cartridges to buy his first mixer at a Lancaster thrift store in 1994. Thus he began his dark foray into scratching and turntable trickery and has been hooked ever since. Baseck has a style made up of breakcore, broken beats, droning atmospheres, and slaughtering noise, which creates a beautifully fucked collage of sound. His tools include a GameBoy, kaoscillator, turntable, dollar beat machines, and he can be found along side long time collaborator Cristina Fuentes in thier project: Sonic Death Rabbit
