Brainorchestra is a content man right now, and deservedly so. The Elizabeth, New Jersey born and bred producer just dropped his now fourth project his year, all excellent, and he has at least four more in the works that he can’t help but excitedly mention over the course of our hour-long Zoom. Brainorchestra, born Andrew Melo, seems more hyped about each new tape he mentions than one before it, feeling each is a tangible step forward from the last. When Brainorchestra makes a beat, raps, or even paints the only person he is trying to impress is himself. His guiding mantra is “creating carelessly” which means he isn’t precious with his art; he just creates what feels right to him in the moment. Funnily enough, creating as frequently as he does means he is often tired of a project by the time it's finally making its way out to the world. However, it’s clear that his dismissal of his previous works isn’t out of an actual disdain for the sound but a continued excitement at how his current shit is his best shit. Not remorseful at what he used to sound like but rather impressed at how he continues to self-actualize through music. This is part of why he is always eager to share his work with the world, even knowing that he will inevitably create something even better that’ll eclipse what he just put out. That is the fun of it in the end for Brainorchestra, every day he wakes up excited at how he’ll outdo yesterday. This drive has pushed him to quickly become one of the most creative and interesting producers in hip hop right now. He’s constantly trying to find a new way to approach the genre and impress himself, and he’s amassed an impressive legion of fans in the process.
