A Suitcase Full Of Vinyl: The Frank Dukes Interview
I heard a rumor once… Some may even call it a legend. It revolved around a producer from Toronto named Frank Dukes. As the story goes, Dukes landed in New York City with only his MPC, $20 and a suitcase full of vinyl. Since then, Dukes has managed to work with 50 Cent, Drake, Ghostface Killah, Joel Ortiz, Kool G Rap, and many more MC’s.
After some searching, I finally tracked down Dukes. We discussed many things; beat making, 2 tracking, pan handling… and I found out how true some legends can be.
