Born in the Bay Area, raised in Somerset, England, and currently living in Los Angeles, Beatnick Dee is a producer whose discography includes work with Faith Evans & Biggie, Blu, Fredwreck, October London, Jehst, Ras Kass, Vinnie Paz, Trizz, Chuuwee, and Big Twins. Having grown up in England, Nick was exposed to a variety of musical genres from a young age when his father began taking him to Glastonbury Festival. Out of all the musical styles at the festival, it was Hip-Hop that really caught Nick's ear, leading to his first experimentation with beatmaking. After years of accumulating knowledge in records, gear, sampling, and production techniques, he began collaborating with artists, making a name for himself and solidifying his trademark sound. It was after a visit to LA, as an intern at Tres Records, that his mind was made up — he had to make a permanent move. Only 6 months later, it became official — Beatnick Dee was now a Los Angeles-based producer. It was this relocation which led to the evolution of his debut album, Creative Medicine, and subsequent projects, most recently his collaborative album, Patience, with rapper, Pheo, and his first instrumental project Order & Chaos. He landed his first major-label placement in 2017, co-producing with Fredwreck on a track that features an unreleased Biggie verse, alongside Lil' Cease, for Faith Evans' King & I album. With his sights set on more placements, collaborations, and sound design, the multifaceted producer is one to watch for 2020 and beyond.

#Throwback to 2017 at my old studio in Silver Lake. This room used to get so hot that I had a couple records warp 🤦🏻♂️ and the traffic was so loud, it was hard to record without my mic picking up the noise. Nice view though 🤷🏻♂️ Shot by @reallynathan (at Silver Lake) https://www.instagram.com/p/CgCo1PdJWC6/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
