about
ampe_sand is a sample-based producer based near Des Moines, Iowa, with an enigmatic sample selection and warm, textured beats. He started producing music at 12 on Fruity Loops Studio, trying to emulate some of his favorite electronic artists. “I learned early on that the music I love gives me chills. The phenomenon is called frisson. If you've experienced it, you know how amazing the feeling is. Ever since I first felt it, I've known that I want to make music that gives other people chills as well.” Nearly a decade later, ampe_sand is chopping up samples and cooking up beats that induce frisson in others at his apartment studio. On July 5, 2020, he released Deader Alive, a pastiche of sample-based beats intertwined with the dialogue of old Westerns, and dedicated it to his grandfather. On August 12, 2020, ampe_sand released an EP entitled Summe_time Cookups, which features a collection of 6 of his favorite beats from Summer 2020. Right now, ampe_sand is focusing on writing new music and teaming up with local recording artist Save Miu's Ghost to release music of their own brand of bedroom hip-hop. They've currently released two tracks: 237 AM and Murk. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
