Originally from New Jersey, he came up self-releasing dorm-room beat tapes while studying at NYU's Clive Davis Institute of Recorded Music (BFA, 2015), where the early 'Beets' and 'Leftovers' YouTube uploads turned into a cult catalog. His ongoing 'Beet Tape' series — beets, beets 2, beets 3 and beets 4, plus their 'Leftovers' companions — is sold direct-to-fan on Bandcamp, with later editions pressed on splatter vinyl. Alongside his solo work he has spent years as Chillhop Music's in-house mastering engineer and remains a frequent Chillhop artist, while also session-bassing for indie and R&B projects in NYC. His sound blends laptop production with live electric bass and dusty jazz samples, and his catalog is licensed by creators worldwide because he keeps it ContentID-free. Recent releases include the collaborative 'Baloney Syrup' with G Mills and K-Magic (Jan 2026) and the single 'Principled' (April 2026). ![Birocratic](https://i.scdn.co/image/ab6761610000e5eb6ddc98625905a1107b141b61) BIROCRATIC Portrait · 2023–PRESENT ▸ VERIFIED STREAMS 8.327.309 TOTAL · 8.3M 60 DAYS · Total Releases 20 Years active 2023–PRESENT This week · ▲ 0.2% · 2K/day Streams this week +13.564 8.3M TOTAL Best day +1.8M Jun 12 Spotify +14K 100% OF TOTAL · 7D YouTube — 0% OF TOTAL · 7D SoundCloud — 0% OF TOTAL · 7D FASTEST GROWING Midnight Veil ▲ 0.9% Half-Light ▲ 0.8% Starcruise ▲ 1.4% Collaborators · ![Birocratic](https://i.scdn.co/image/ab6761610000e5eb6ddc98625905a1107b141b61) Birocratic 42 tracks · 8.3M ![G Mills](https://i.scdn.co/image/ab6761610000e5ebf33a33c46cb866266c147541) G Mills 23 tracks · 2.0M ![Saib](https://i.scdn.co/image/ab6761610000e5eb4951529dd817135437fd61a4) Saib 1 track · 1.3M ![ØDYSSEE](https://i.scdn.co/image/ab6761610000e5eba72d5aeb79fa83c66528e43d) ØDYSSEE 1 track · 1.3M ![Sweeps](https://i.scdn.co/image/ab6761610000e5eb7519ea56b9e48832fe8a6d5c) Sweeps 2 tracks · 1.2M ![Enluv](https://i.scdn.co/image/ab6761610000e5eb4766e3ea97e57ac17f13889f) Enluv 2 tracks · 1.2M ![Ross Mayfield](https://i.scdn.co/image/ab6761610000e5eb39648051740eeb48ea384135) Ross Mayfield 2 tracks · 1.1M ![Kosmicho](https://i.scdn.co/image/ab6761610000e5eb624494005f115db01a122ba3) Kosmicho 2 tracks · 1.1M ![Middle School](https://i.scdn.co/image/ab6761610000e5ebeac0a37a8313cbff826e0fbf) Middle School 1 track · 834.7K ![Dotlights](https://i.scdn.co/image/ab6761610000e5ebe9624d880ec7b2ef611d303a) Dotlights 1 track · 729.2K ![CloZee](https://i.scdn.co/image/ab6761610000e5eb8e22016330d27232741e4d4d) CloZee 1 track · 76.8K ![Ian Ewing](https://i.scdn.co/image/ab6761610000e5eb7b8050a4d2f14fbad9e52172) Ian Ewing 5 tracks · 65.9K ![Ornithology](https://i.scdn.co/image/ab6761610000e5ebf0726d0718cee9dd844f3c6d) Ornithology 5 tracks · 65.9K ![K-Magic](https://i.scdn.co/image/ab6761610000e5eb0fab3d5d373f4d890106fb00) K-Magic 1 track · 6.9K ![Birocratic](https://i.scdn.co/image/ab6761610000e5eb6ddc98625905a1107b141b61) Birocratic 42 tracks · 8.3M ![G Mills](https://i.scdn.co/image/ab6761610000e5ebf33a33c46cb866266c147541) G Mills 23 tracks · 2.0M ![Saib](https://i.scdn.co/image/ab6761610000e5eb4951529dd817135437fd61a4) Saib 1 track · 1.3M ![ØDYSSEE](https://i.scdn.co/image/ab6761610000e5eba72d5aeb79fa83c66528e43d) ØDYSSEE 1 track · 1.3M ![Sweeps](https://i.scdn.co/image/ab6761610000e5eb7519ea56b9e48832fe8a6d5c) Sweeps 2 tracks · 1.2M ![Enluv](https://i.scdn.co/image/ab6761610000e5eb4766e3ea97e57ac17f13889f) Enluv 2 tracks · 1.2M ![Ross Mayfield](https://i.scdn.co/image/ab6761610000e5eb39648051740eeb48ea384135) Ross Mayfield 2 tracks · 1.1M ![Kosmicho](https://i.scdn.co/image/ab6761610000e5eb624494005f115db01a122ba3) Kosmicho 2 tracks · 1.1M ![Middle School](https://i.scdn.co/image/ab6761610000e5ebeac0a37a8313cbff826e0fbf) Middle School 1 track · 834.7K ![Dotlights](https://i.scdn.co/image/ab6761610000e5ebe9624d880ec7b2ef611d303a) Dotlights 1 track · 729.2K ![CloZee](https://i.scdn.co/image/ab6761610000e5eb8e22016330d27232741e4d4d) CloZee 1 track · 76.8K ![Ian Ewing](https://i.scdn.co/image/ab6761610000e5eb7b8050a4d2f14fbad9e52172) Ian Ewing 5 tracks · 65.9K ![Ornithology](https://i.scdn.co/image/ab6761610000e5ebf0726d0718cee9dd844f3c6d) Ornithology 5 tracks · 65.9K ![K-Magic](https://i.scdn.co/image/ab6761610000e5eb0fab3d5d373f4d890106fb00) K-Magic 1 track · 6.9K Trending this week · 5 climbing Last records broken · 2 milestones Top tracks · Ranked by streams · 10 ▸ Curatorial ## OBRA BY BIROCRATIC 20 RELEASES ROLE ### 2026 2 releases ### 2025 4 releases ### 2024 7 releases ### 2023 7 releases Catalog · Notes · Curatorial Bio Birocratic is the moniker of Brandon Rowan, a Brooklyn-based producer, engineer and multi-instrumentalist who has been releasing jazz-leaning instrumental hip-hop since 2012.
