Artist Spotlight: Tape B

Bridging the gap between old school and new school comes bass music’s latest trailblazer, Kemal Berk Alkana, better known as Tape B! Based out of South Florida this producer/DJ has heavily become known for his unique mastering of Hip Hop and Bass music. 

Gaining his start 6 years ago back in his bedroom at UCF, Tape B has created a collection of nostalgic flips and classic OG dubstep hits that have caught the likes of major artists like Zeds Dead, Excision, Liquid Stranger, Griz and many more. In the past month alone, Tape B has taken over stages at some of this year’s most popular festivals such as Lost Lands, Triple Rainbow, and Waakan Fest. He has also just released a guest mix on Zeds Dead’s iconic DEADBEATS RADIO that holds 6 unreleased tunes and has quickly become a fan favorite of the series. 

Tape B’s genre-bending experimental approach showcases how differential and necessary he is as an artist. Bringing back that old school dubstep sound with some fresh flare has allowed Tape B to breathe new life into spaces many of us had long-forgotten. From his drippy flips to his legendary singles, he has quite literally taken the bass scene and flipped it upside down. 

We are extremely eager to see what beats Tape B will be bringing to this year’s Goldrush Music Festival on October 7-9th at the Phoenix Raceway in Arizona. You do not want to miss this set! Get more information about the festival and grab your tickets here.
