Featuring Quaaludes Beats

Quaaludes Beats is a German music producer and creator of amazingly energetic beats. Taking his stage name from a drug within Leonardo DiCaprio’s “The Wolf of Wall Street” (2013), he continues to provide the same trippy effects.

Introducing Quaaludes Beats

In an interview with Switching Styles, he explains, “Quaalude is the brand name of methaqualone, a sleeping pill from the 60s-70s. The funny thing is when you take it and resist sleeping for 10 minutes after it acts, you get a really hard trip. In the 80s, they stopped producing these pills because of the abuse”.

That’s the basis for the name and his beats. His music is quite in-depth, with many different genres intermixed. He draws inspiration from Linkin Park, Rammstein, and Slipknot, as well as rap and electronica genres. His music is similar as he brings the influence of deep and dark vibes and smooth jazz styles to an overall dynamic sound.

“When I look back, I would say that I always loved the ‘in your face’ sound but also respected quieter stuff like classic, jazz or pop. So my most influence is my love to music,” he said.

The Music Of Quaaludes Beats

His music is very versatile. Below are a few of Switching Styles’s favourite beats from Quaaludes Beats.

“Sunshine Avenue”

Starting with an upbeat and sunshine tune, this beat is sweet and uplifting. It’s almost impossible not to feel this melody move through you.

“Graveyard”

The graveyard is true to its name: dark and foreboding. It combines the energetic nature of the other beats produced by Quaaludes Beats but with a sinister undertone.

“Unfavorable”

This one is an intriguing song. It’s subtle, almost hesitant, but smooth enough to transition from beat to beat. The listener holds on to every beat throughout the song, from start to finish.

“Distance”

Distance by Quaaludes’ beats are high energy with a hip-hop and electronic feel. This is without a down a beat to dance to!

“Soul”

Soul sounds precisely as the title would suggest. It’s smooth and subtle with a steady beat, allowing the music to flow through you sweetly and easily.
