Against the Clock is a series where we give an artist 10 minutes in the studio and see what they come up with. You can watch all the past episodes here.

For this week’s episode we travel to Philadelphia and link up with Noah Breakfast. After starting out with a few experiments in rap & pop production (Big Sean, Wiley, Ellie Goulding), in 2012 he started ‘Rare MP3s’ as a mixing / mastering company. Since then, they’ve been responsible for a decent chunk of modern rap and club music (Shlohmo x Jeremih, Baauer, RJD2, DJ Sliink, Nadus). At the top of 2015, he released a track as part of Ta-Ku’s project ‘HWLS’- but this past year he’s moved quietly back into producer mode – and into new realms of alternative, indie-pop, and RnB. (Christine & The Queens, Wet, Ty Dolla $ign, Tory Lanez, Santigold). As you can see in this video, his studio chops are impressive to say the least.

Above you can watch him make a solid hip-hop beat form scratch in 10 minutes, and keep your eyes peeled for a special guest appearance from FACT Freestyler Grande Marshall.
