about

March 11, 2022: Spartan Jet-Plex aka Nancy Grim Kells (they/them), the founder and facilitator of Grimalkin Records, is releasing a handmade mixtape called My Way.

2021 was a rough year, and by the end of it, I could see that the past year had paid an unfortunate toll on many folks in my life, including myself. Loop Sessions DMV, a monthly event, was a small bright spot for me that began in February 2021. I participated in the monthly events in the DMV chapter along with three additional sessions via Loop Sessions Montréal. Through the monthly events, I met many wonderful musicians and beatmakers, learned a lot about different musicians and bands from folks who selected the monthly crates, and challenged myself to stretch as a musician. Most of all, it has been a ton of fun.

This album features all of the Loop Sessions tracks that I created over the past year (2021) and in the order that they were made. Together they tell a story of the ups and downs throughout this past year and create a story of struggle, hope, and faith through dark and troubling times. I am also not a traditional beatmaker and so they also approach the idea of sampling and song creation through the use of sampling and sample packs in an alternate way to traditional beatmaking.

This album releases via Grimalkin Records. I made a limited amount of handmade mixtapes of this album to sell on Bandcamp. Proceeds support Grimalkin Records' current fundraisers.

"Loop Sessions assembles Beat Builders under one roof for a gathering of music production and networking. Using the equipment of their choice while sampling from the same vinyl, participants have a few hours to put their creation together. There's no contest; just creative content!"
