My name is Amedeo Corona, otherwise known as Amed One. Basterd is my greatest project. It represents the purest shit, at the highest level. 

Today, Boom Bap is washed. So much wack shit goin on, so much phony shit. 99% of people don't even know what real boom bap is. They know the sound, but they couldn't tell you the first thing about it. I'm here to change that. One day, real boom bap will return, in full effect, stompin suckaz along the way. I'm here to lead the revolution.

The Style Runs Deep

We don't just "make real boom bap", we live it. This ain't no hobby, it's our gahdamn life. We ain't here to cut corners, take shorts, we here to do it right. The Authentik Way. Our shit is pure, boiled down to the essence. True and livin. 

Thru drum kits, my mission is to provide authentic high quality tools to create Authentik boom bap music. 

Out of my own genuine love for the art, I unintentionally create high quality authentic boom samples on the daily. I share them on this site. The love is real, and the style runs deep.

Authentik

Anyone can say their shit is authentic, but few can prove it. It's not easy, it takes patience. A lot of it. Most turn away when they figure out the pain that comes with it. It takes more than twice as long to make a beat, it costs twice as much, the gear is old as fuck and often needs repairs, the list goes on. On paper it makes no sense to go the truly authentic route. But for those with a true passion for this shit, it doesn't matter. And that's what makes it special. Only someone with a true love for this shit would even consider putting themselves thru the headache of creating real boom bap. But nowadays, it's far from a headache. It's a tedious process and I love it. I wouldn't want it any other way.

Boom Bap in it's purest, highest form, comes from the 90s, and as a result, you have to be willing to give up the tempting advancements of the 20th century if you want to be truly authentic. By committing to authenticity, you give up convenience, control, speed, and more. You are left with a highly limited, slow practice. It's obvious why so many don't, it's really not easy. You have to be willing to spend much more time and money, just to do less. But that's the true art. The limitations are what push it to exceptional heights.

More importantly, it's not the tools that made the sound, it's the person behind them. It's not just the samples, it's who you are. True authenticity requires a true artist. An authentic artist. No phony, wack shit, that shit manifests itself thru the music and we can all see it. In this art you gotta come true.

There is nothing I love more in this world than pure boom bap music, it is one of the most beautiful things I have ever seen in my life. Thus, I have dedicated my life to it. I ain't goin nowhere, you can expect to see me leading this authentic bap revolution til the day I die. The muthafuckin Prophet.

We out, peace
