Virtu-oso Productions

Virtu-oso is a hip-hop producer who, for the most part, likes to adopt the traditional side of production involving sampling, choosing to sample from a variety of sound sources. He also produces without samples just as well. Some his favourite producers include Pete Rock, The Rza, J Dilla, Dj Premier, No I.D. The Bomb Squad, Madlib, Timbaland, Kev Brown, Just Blaze, Harry Love, 9th Wonder, Ayatollah, Dangermouse and The Neptunes as well as composers such as John Barry, Bacharach, Quincy Jones, Ennio Morricone et al. “I like to have the dirty- basement sound of RZA or Madlib but also the sonic cleanness of Dilla or Just Blaze.”

He & P Bars founded their own ‘label’ Get Focus Records as a way of grouping themselves and artists they recruit. Of the 3 albums P Bars has done, Virtu-oso has produced the majority of tracks.
