beatsbyhand

beatsbyhand has been played on NTS in shows including Getting Lost in Foreign Places w/ Andre Power, featured first on 24 July 2023. Songs played include Gypsy Woman (She's Homeless) (Atmos Blaq Remix) and Gypsy Woman (She's Homeless).

From Port-Elizabeth, South-Africa; beatsbyhand is the alter-ego of Bass-House producer known as Hein Bosman (Advent).

He spent 7 years playing multiple instruments in a church band, which would later serve as a good background for understanding music and it's different components. Inspired by electronic-dance-music, he started producing at the age of 18, when he got introduced to music production software (FL Studio) by his close friend. He was now able to express his own musical ideas, not with a solo instrument, but as a musical arrangement, designing and crafting sounds and rythms that would later, somewhat unintendedly, have people moving on dancefloors around the country.

After finding success as Advent, he felt that something was missing. There was a different type of music; a different sound, a different tempo, a different feeling that he wanted to induce, but having been set on a different path, he could not take on this journey, and so, the birth of beatsbyhand took place. His decorative hand-mannequin had come to life, Godsent, to create these beats on his behalf. Spawned from a partition of his soul, beatsbyhand continues on this seperate journey, creating hand-crafted-beats to move the feet of whoever is listening.
