It would be a discredit to Clams Casino to merely call him a hip-hop producer. The last few years have brought the New Jersey native into the limelight of a new wave of hip-hop that is informed by both the layered contexts of an internet-fueled subculture and by the unavoidable fusion of electronic, experimental, and indie music with rap and pop alike. Artists such as Lil’B, A$AP Rocky, Mac Miller, and Blood Orange have all sought out Clams’ hazy, tripping productions, and his EPs and remixes have been Soundcloud hits.
To promote their new string of detachable laptops, technology manufacturer HP is collaborating with the young producer to show off his production prowess and their computers’ production power. Clams Casino will be producing “2Days Beat ft. Vic Mensa“ live on YouTube on Monday November 18th and Tuesday November 19th, taking directive cues from commenters as inspiration. The HP computer in use will be the the HP Split x2 Ultrabook, which functions as both a notebook computer and as a detachable tablet PC as a competitor to the Microsoft Surface.
HP posted a short video displaying the functionality of the dual device, as well as how the young producer incorporates the machine into his personal production setup. Tune into HP’s YouTube channel to get in on the conversation.
