Art Beatz is a DJ/Producer/Remixer whose creativity and passion for music keeps him working around the clock. “I wake up in the middle of the night to compose a beat,” he says. The Baghdad-born, Worcester, Massachusetts-based creates a sound all his own by bringing together the music of his homeland of Iraq with the current sounds of House/Electro/Dance/Pop. He also draws inspiration from the work of past masters. Art’s brother Bassam, who learned to play music on a church organ in Baghdad, taught him to play music by ear. Art now composes beautiful pieces whenever he sits down at anything with keys, be it a baby grand piano or a Korg Triton keyboard in his home studio. His mastery of Logic Pro allows him to create music in nearly any location.
