Beat Rabbi & DeepSpace5

about

Casey Birch grew up 1700 miles from the birthplace of hip-hop. Borger, TX is “the gateway to the Texas Plains”, and is best known for hosting the world’s largest fish fry each June. While many kids in the Texas pan handle were picking up guitars and dreaming of becoming country rock stars, in 1986 Casey heard the Fat Boys for the first time and fell in love. In the late 90’s Mr. Birch began DJing and producing beats on his MPC. Armed with a giant collection of dusty breaks and rare grooves, Casey created his own brand of boom-bap, and Beat Rabbi was born. Beat Rabbi earned his first major production credit in 2000, when he provided the beat for “Divine Lines” on Dirt’s sophomore LP A War to Restore. That same year Beat Rabbi was contacted by Manchild of Mars Ill, and invited to meet with members of the then fledgling Deepspace 5 crew. The meeting would lead to Beat Rabbi joining DS5 just in time to produce the lead single from the crew’s debut album The Night We Called It a Day. Rabbi brought the thump with “Stick This In Your Ear” which continues to be a fan favorite among DS5’s ever-growing fan base. While Rabbi was making a name for himself with guest-spot production, he was also working on a full-length album with his group Circumcised Mind. Together with emcee Apologetic they released the album “The Real Battle” in 2001, which showcased Beat Rabbi’s rough and raw beats. The selfreleased project has been compared favorably to early releases from the Quannum Projects rel
