Last year, Access2Arts challenged our Beats Crew to push themselves using the skills they have learnt from the Beats Workshops, funded by the City of Unley.
“Every Saturday I go to Beats to see my close friends. Beats Crew is a home and a place where my heart goes in making music.”
Lorcan, Beats Crew member
What resulted was an EP of 9 tracks under the guidance of their tutors MC ME and DJ Tr!p.
We are very excited to bring you the inaugural The Beats Crew EP!
The EP is available now to stream and purchase!
