Detroit-born Producer/Engineer/Songwriter Urb Tactics has been at it for about 11 years. It all started in 1996 when he "borrowed" a Casio keyboard from a high school music room. "When I was younger, I was really into art...as far as sketching and painting, I was actually pretty good at it, very good infact....but as the years went by I simple became bored of art altogether and luckily I gained access to a hidden talent that I could have easily never tapped into, due to the simple fact, back then, fruity loops and all these other silly programs wasn't popping' off back in the 90's...it was basically hardware and if you didn't have the money, you wasn't going to have it." Urb spent hours in his room making "beats" with that cheap Casio, even hotwired together a 4 track recorder with a voice-activated recorder and a 2nd tape recorder. "What I did was splice the wires from the microphone on the tape recorder and crossed them with some wires from the tape recorder and ended up being able to record 2 signals at a time....and I was using cassettes and we all know how the cassettes could be recorded over, but with a little bit of distortion, so I know I was good for about 3 or 4 tracks and then I had to stop [laughing]...those beats were beyond wack, but I was dedicated. 11 years later, Urb has stepped far and beyond a crude Casio and tape recorder setup and now has equipment such as the Roland fantom and the legendary Nord Lead 2x, "I'm a bit older now and my money is right so I'm able to get my hands on quality equipment and at this point, the music is paying for itself, selling beats for a couple thousand here and a couple thousand there, its almost like I'm getting the equipment for free because whatever money music brings in for me, goes right back into music, its an investment process....something that a lot of the new jack beat makers out there don't really understand, they only understand a free copy of fruity loops and a mouse in a lot of cases, which Software is fine....but if you're serious about ANYTHING, you should have no problem putting money behind yourself and staying on top of upgrading your tools for your craft, this is how it is in every profession and music isn't an exception."
