Today Beat Kangz Electronics released the Beat Thang, a mobile production studio that was made in collaboration with Grammy-Award winning producer Dallas Austin. Our friends over that BKE were kind enough to send us a unit early and we have been spending the past week testing it out so we can bring you the full review!

The Beat Thang is being billed as the "world's first fully portable music production studio" and we can vouch that it is indeed small enough to put in a bag and use on the go. It's also one of the best-looking beat machines out there complete with a "blang" mode that lights up the entire unit in electric blue.

Keep it locked to DJBooth for the full review coming next week and check out

Ever since BeatKangz came out with their super-popular music production work station The Beat Thang; the units have been flying off store shelves like hotcakes! We reviewed the Beat Thang in 2011 and we were surprised at the ease of use and the versatility of this small compact production unit. It seems that lots of other producers agree with our sentiments and American Musical Supply (our Audio Equipment supply partners) has been making every effort to keep these in-stock for everyone who wants to join in on the beat-making fun. Check inside for our review and easy "buy" links.

The BKE Beat Thang digital production station was released a few short years ago and we were happy to report that this powerful machine was easy to use and built to last. The Beat Thang now undergoes a hardware and software refresh with a new 1.3.0 update that makes the Beat Thang even more powerful by leveraging more processing efficiencies for a smoother operation. There's also more sounds and samples added to the thousands that are already on-board and a new MIDI clock feature that allows users to connect multiple MIDI controllers and production software.
