Brummie beatmaker dylantheinfamous <\/strong>is back with his second MOONLOOPS<\/a> <\/em>project on Blah Records<\/strong>. The 0121 native delivers 21 interstellar instrumentals, all produced, mixed and mastered by the man himself. He blends lo-fi hip hop with classic R&B cuts, making a beat tape perfect for space shuttle speakers. <\/p>\n Interviews with Mr. Infamous are few and far between, but we managed to pull him away from Ableton for a chat about all things Dylan. We discussed his impressive partnerships with the likes of Obijuan<\/strong>, Jaydonclover<\/strong>, Bisk <\/strong>and CLBRKS<\/strong>, and learnt of an upcoming project under his MC alias Dylan Gray<\/strong>. Find out what it takes to be the definition of a prolific producer and why dylantheinfamous doesn\u2019t want to \u201cpaint stormy clouds all the time\u201d. We have lift-off.<\/p>\n \u201c[Laughs] Drop Ross Barkley <\/strong>man. Definitely get rid of Ross Barkley. I think that\u2019s it man, I think Dean Smith<\/strong>\u2018s doing a good job you know. I think he\u2019s implemented a good little system, it\u2019s not completely around Grealish<\/strong>. But I\u2019d drop Barkley and put Sanson<\/strong> in definitely man, he looks good.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cTo be fair, I kinda make MOONLOOPS <\/em>in the winter months. It\u2019s a bit of isolation and solitude. It\u2019s not a sad tape but it\u2019s quite an emotional tape. It taps into a lot of emotions so yeah, it\u2019s definitely a deeper release than a lot of the other stuff I do.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cYeah definitely. The idea behind that was, you know them early R&B songs with almost like cringey forced emotion, to take that and turn it into something a bit more real and heartfelt is quite an interesting concept that I like working with. I did it on the first MOONLOOPS <\/em>as well and I took from romance movies and chick-flicks that might seem corny on the outside, but you can manipulate and work into something that\u2019s a bit deeper. In my opinion anyway, that\u2019s what I\u2019m trying to do.\u201d<\/p>\n \n\u201cI put my life into it\u201d<\/h4>\n

\nIf you managed Aston Villa for the rest of the season, what would you change?<\/h5>\n
For you, what separates a MOONLOOPS <\/em>tape from your other instrumental releases?<\/h5>\n
The second half in particular has a throwback R&B feel, where does the tape pull from?<\/h5>\n
