Brian “MixEngineer” Kidd

Listen, 16 yo me would be proud right now! Everything I said I wanted to do God multiplied that by 10! Past couple years been the busiest in my life but grateful for all of it! S/O to Pops & Ma Dukes for being the introduction to this music from Gospel to jazz and co-signing them student loans for me to go get my degree in audio🤣 S/O my older siblings too for expanding my music palette! Lastly s/o to my brothers @iampatjunior and @callmeacelegit for the recommendation! I’m honored to join the @recordingacademy 2025 New Member Class—an inspiring global community of creators and professionals who are shaping the future of music. As a member, I now have a voice in the GRAMMY Awards process and a platform to advocate for our industry, support my peers, and grow in my own journey. What makes the Academy strong is its diversity—of genres, experiences, and voices. I’m excited to contribute my perspective and help champion musical excellence around the world. #IAmTheAcademy

We connected, we laughed, we learned… and some of y’all even left inspired to start collecting or step into your first vinyl shop. Appreciate everyone who came through 🙏🏾💛 The next Vinyl & Vibes is already in the works. Stay tuned. P.S. - thank you to @soundoff_hifi for allowing us to use their shop to host our event 🫡

“Don’t check me, check your record collection.” 😂 Brian will be curating some of the sounds at Vinyl & Vibes — but first, here’s his vinyl collecting origin story.

🎵 Surprise... NEW ALBUM!!! 🎶 There's soooo much that we could say about this particular album/experience.. 😶‍🌫️ the sweat and tears (no exaggeration), countless times of wanting to give up, etc 🏜️🏋🏾🏃🏾‍♂️✍🏾🥵😰🫠😓 Regardless, we didn't let it stop us from our Destiny and GIVING IT OUR ALL!!! 🤕🫡🙌🏾✊🏾🌌💎✨ Eternally grateful to God, and our crew + fam for helping us pull through ❤️‍🩹🙏🏾✨ 📜 Forgotten Memories & Analog Mysteries tells the fascinating story of SkyBlew & SublimeCloud, known as The Destined, as they attempt to plan and throw the PARTY OF A LIFETIME!!! What begins as a hopeful mission quickly grows more complicated as they realize the world around them isn’t quite right, hinting at deeper mysteries beneath the surface… Each track unfolds like a new episode, blending story, emotion, and atmosphere. Grab your thinking cap, press play, and prepare to embark on an UNFORGETTABLE journey as you experience the birth of A NEW GENRE: Rhythm Escapism! 🧠📡📻🎶🕵🏾🔎 🎤 SkyPainting by @SkyBlewMusic 🎨🖌️🖼️🌤️🌄✨ 🎼 Melodic Soundscapes by @SublimeCloud 🎹🎵🎶✨ 🎨 Cool Sci-Fi album artwork by @IvyOkami 🎨💛✨ 🎛️ Mixed Masterfully by @MixEngineerK1dd 🎚️🔊🎵✨ 🎤 Additional vocals by JettyVibes and @Essi.Sings 🎙️🎶✨ 🎙️ "Mysterious Radio DJ" voice acting by @JenniferTra 📻🤔 Unfortunately, there was an issue (as usual) so the album won't be on Spotify, and streaming platforms for another few days 😶😓😖 The irony of them "FORGETTING" our album.. 😅 It's cool tho, as I would rather you support the album on Bandcamp anyway. And for what price? 🤔 PAY WHATEVER YOU WANT!!! 😱 No minimum! 🗣️ IMPORTANT: it's recommended that you read the description for each song on Bandcamp, as you'll find some VITAL LORE/CLUES, which adds more to the story/mystery and overall experience.. 👀🧠📗📖🔍 PLUS, the LoreBook comes INCLUDED when you download the album! 😁💿✨ 🗣️📣 CALLING ALL DREAMERS & POTENTIAL DREAMERS.. YOU'RE INVITED TO AN UNFORGETTABLE PARTY OF A LIFETIME!!! 🥳🎉🪩🎶💃🕺🌃🌌🧠💫📜 ✨ Thank y'all for the Love & support, it's truly a blessing to have you on this journey with us 😊🙏🏾💚💖✨ #DigitalArt #Anime #NewMusic #HipHop #RhythmEscapism 🩵✌🏾🎨🌤
