Brooklyn On Wax

Brooklyn On Wax is a dynamic musical collective based in New York City, known for their innovative fusion of classic hip-hop, soulful funk, and experimental beats. Formed in 2018 by producer-DJ duo Maya Torres and Jules Carter, the group began as a series of underground vinyl pop-up events that celebrated the rich tradition of Brooklyn’s diverse music scene. Drawing from the borough’s storied history, Brooklyn On Wax crafts immersive sonic experiences blending live instrumentation, sampled grooves, and thought-provoking lyricism.

Their debut album, "Streets Beyond Sleep," released in 2021, garnered critical acclaim for its seamless mix of nostalgic references and forward-thinking production techniques.
