Machinedrum Shares DJ Rashad Collaboration “Understand”, Announces Tribute Movin’ Forward

Machinedrum Shares DJ Rashad Collaboration "Understand", Announces Tribute Movin' Forward

Producer Travis Stewart, aka Machinedrum, collaborated with the late DJ Rashad a few times over the past few years. “The tracks were never completely finished and seemed impossible to finish after he passed,” Stewart wrote. “Eventually I mustered up enough courage to open the sessions and finish them. It is what Rashad would have wanted me to do.”

Movin’ Forward is Machinedrum’s tribute to Rashad that features their unreleased collaborations and two unreleased Machinedrum tracks inspired by Rashad and Teklife. It’s out April 24; 100% of proceeds will go to Rashad’s family. That’s “Understand”, his collaboration with Rashad and Nick Hook, above via FACT.

I called it Movin’ Forward because I know Rashad wants everyone he touched to keep pushing themselves and follow in his footsteps on the path he had been creating all these years. I’m proud to have known him, shared the stage with him and to have collaborated with him. May his sound and spirit continue to inspire and spread through everyone’s speakers! Teklife to tha next life!!
