Based on verified information:
808 BEACH is the dynamic collaboration between two seasoned music veterans: producer/multi-instrumentalist John "J-C" Carr (known for Nu Shooz's hit "I Can't Wait") and percussionist Bill Coleman (of Mtume fame). Together, they dive deep into the realms of electronic, soul, and funk, crafting a signature sound that blends classic influences with contemporary dancefloor energy. You'll often hear the punchy beats of the iconic Roland TR-808 driving their tracks, alongside rich basslines and lush synths, giving their productions a warm, retro-futuristic vibe.
As evidenced by their recent work, 808 BEACH is highly active in the remix scene, putting their distinctive spin on tracks like The Sundays' "Here's Where The Story Ends" and Byron The Aquarius's "WHATEVER DADDY SAYS," alongside releasing their own original club-focused cuts such as "LET's GO!" and "PILE DRIVER." Their project is all about creating infectious grooves designed to move bodies and evoke the spirit of classic electronic soul.
