Not only can you stream BandanaBeats on all major streaming platforms including Spotify, Apple Music, and YouTube you can also cop the album on vinyl. The always mysterious Madlib has given a good amount of interviews since Bandanna was released. However, he hasn't talked a lot about the process of how he makes some of his production.
The closest he got came in a couple of tweets he sent out a couple of days after the album dropped. Madlib revealed that he made the beats for Bandanaon his iPad:
\u201cI made all of the beats for Bandana on my iPad.\u201d— Madlib (@Madlib) 1561843724
\u201cSome of these niggas mad lmao. I\u2019m gonna keep making good music I like. I\u2019m gonna keep doin my thing till i\u2019m 90. i\u2019m gonna keep getting better. That iPad remark was just to say stop making excuses - use a tape deck if necessary. Technology is what you make it.\u201d— Madlib (@Madlib) 1561960332
