For a group of talented Malawian producers, Artium Magister, their ethos “Practice takes you closer to the desired goal as passion embraces the undying flame…” is the foundation on which they are building a hip-hop producer community dedicated to pushing the boundaries of their craft.
Artium Magister is brought together by a shared desire for growth and collaboration in the Malawian Hip-hop community. Recognizing the power of connection, a handful of notable producers, namely Self Defence, Justus Divine, John Ol Dreams, Denreal, Given Shem, Mcfade, Isaiah the Great, and Phava, came together to form the nucleus of what will soon become a force to be reckoned with.
In the hall of their Artium Magister group, the producers engage in spirited discussions, sharing invaluable insights about making music and the state of the industry, and most importantly, challenging each other to elevate their skills through beat-making battles.
As word of their collective talent spreads, the group continues to welcome new members into its fold, each bringing their unique perspective and expertise to the table. From Isaiah The Great to An-Ro, Nu Goatee, and R3V, more talent has joined the ranks of their common passion for music production.
In 2023, the collective achieved a significant milestone with the release of their inaugural beat tape, “Breaks From The Trenches Vol. 1.” A testament to their collaborative spirit and unwavering dedication, the tape showcased the diverse talents of the group.
Now, as 2024 unfolds, the Artium Magister collective just released the new chapter in their journey. Their hip-hop beat tape: Volume 2 of “Breaks From The Trenches” released on January 29, 2024, further showcases the collective’s evolution and growth since their debut.
The beat tape isn’t just for sale. In keeping with their ethos of accessibility and collaboration, the Artium Magister collective has decided to make “Breaks From The Trenches Vol. 2” available for free.
However, for those interested in using the beats for their own projects, the producers are just a message away, ready to collaborate and reach agreements.
