Starcrossed

2012 release, a stunning instrumental album from Batsauce. Born Britt Traynham in Jacksonville FL, Batsauce's resume includes production work for artists such as the Abs, Mr. Lif, Vinne Paz, Dillon, Qwazaar, Akrobatik, Patrick Evan, Bahamadia and George Clinton. He has produced hundreds of tracks over his 12 year career, and has built a reputation as one of the world's adept and adaptable beat makers. Batsauce may be best-known for his work as one third of the Smile Rays Starcrossed takes to the Shakespearean notion of forbidden love epitomized for all time in 'Romeo and Juliet' and gives it a futuristic or shall we say contemporary twist. It tells the story of an alien who falls in love with a woman on Earth, which often leads to trouble, even for other Earthlings. Batsauce draws on a wide range of cultural influences, but brings them all into harmony for the kind of progressive beats that he and his circles have dealt in for ages, but which have lately returned front and center to industry dominance.
