Hailing from New York (kinda figures based on the name), Brooklyn Heavies are her Filian (Producer, aka Fillianaire) and Michael Ruocco (DJ, aka Mikey Smiles). The 2 friends and collaborators describe themselves as “two old-school industry cats making background beats for the chillout scene". Definitely talented cats as I've been head-bopping to their new joint "True York" for the past hour or so.
“We make feel good beats intended to make sure your head is bopping while you’re sipping cocktails, lounging with friends, or hanging out in a coffee shop.” Filian says, "We want to make the coolest background beats ever, for when people are chillaxin".
The beat is definitely making me daydream of a careless and directionless walk in New York. Been over a decade since I've been there and I would love to pair this boom bap experience with the spirit of the city.
