Within the last few years, the Viennese beat giant Brenk Sinatra advanced to become one of the most important and most active producers in Europe. After lacing various European artists with tailor-made beats, numerous US-rappers such as Mac Miller, B-Real, Kurupt, WC, Xzibit and Guilty Simpson recorded on Brenk's instrumentals.

Brenk Sinatra's productions generate a lot of media interest as well as some airplay by international radio stations such as the Gilles Peterson's "World Wide Show" on BBC1 or Eminem's radio station "Shade45". When Brenk is not busy touring as part of the producer trio Betty Ford Boys, he is working on the fine-tuning of MC Eiht's upcoming album "Which Way Iz West" which is about to drop 2015 on DJ Premier's label "Year Round Records".Besides Gangsta Rap from the West Coast and grimey Hip-Hop from Detroit, Brenk Sinatra's heart beats for Soul Music and Progressive Rock of the 1970s. The Midnite Ride Album will provide some new insight into his musical universe.

Started as a random beat playlist for his car and ended up as his soon to be released solo album, Midnite Ride is basically Brenk's soundtrack for the road. Listeners who loved his previous, more soulful and jazzy productions will definitely love Midnite Ride. If you ask Brenk to describe the sound of Midnite Ride, he'll probably just say "wavy", that's it.

From Cali influenced beats such as "Skeemin" known from Brenk's "LRG x LA Documentary" to mood uppers like "Cruisin Alone" and "Friday Nite" or the Pimp C homage "Leather & Wood" this album is made to turn down. Midnite Ride is one of Brenk Sinatra's most atmospheric albums so far.
