Born Dominik Patrzek in Germany, Deats infuses dusty old-school snares and lopsided samples with contemporary energy. The approach has made the young producer a favourite of some of hip-hop’s biggest auteurs, including Kendrick Lamar and Drake. Patrzek seems to pride himself on his genre agnosticism, turning in woozy trap for street-rap provocateur Trippie Redd and glitchy, Afrobeats-adjacent electronic music for GoldLink and Wizkid.
