Beatox

 

Beatox (a.k.a. Adam Fainman) uses his voice as a multi-layered instrument. A vocalist, rapper, virtuosic beatboxer, and producer, he is capable of making unusual sounds into soothing beats. Dynamic beatboxing, clever lyricism, and introspective storytelling intertwine with lush, chilled-out production. On his latest full-length album, Been a Long Time, the Winnipeg artist delivers lighthearted raps and grooves galore, distilling his hip-hop, soul, funk, and jazz influences into an infectiously laidback record.
