Mister Modo & Ugly Mac Beer

À propos

With their lo-fi aesthetic and crackling blips of analog, the French DJ/producer pair Mister Modo & Ugly Mac Beer concoct dark, murky soundscapes that reflect their hip-hop heroes <a href="spotify:artist:2pAWfrd7WFF3XhVt9GooDL">MF Doom</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:4iCwCMnqsNZ6atvRiADgtn">RZA</a>, and DJ Muggs. <a href="spotify:artist:5Julda6z6GzFQyKQZLee4F">Mister Modo</a>'s expertise leans more toward crafting beats while <a href="spotify:artist:3UnSlb3cSKqGqjWyQ7Jvo6">Ugly Mac Beer</a> serves as the main scratch technician. <a href="spotify:artist:3UnSlb3cSKqGqjWyQ7Jvo6">Mac Beer</a> had established his own record label, Diess Productions, in 1999, which was mainly focused on DJ-related vinyl and beat-juggling material, before teaming up with <a href="spotify:artist:5Julda6z6GzFQyKQZLee4F">Modo</a> for the first time on the 2005 7" "Weed with Roots in Hell." The duo gathered similarly minded hip-hop artists, like <a href="spotify:artist:19rdse7ewbuvNcCSb4hg0n">Mike Ladd</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:20W9F94ZPbzoMqxuekMgKi">MF Grimm</a>, and the Monsta Island Czars, for their full-length effort MO Dougly Weird Stories, released on Diess in 2007. ~ Cyril Cordor, Rovi
