Producer · Artist · Engineer
BeatZ.GurU is Kent Borgos: producer, recording artist, and sound engineer. The records are written in Apple Logic, finished in the same room, and released under this name. The line on the sleeves is the one he keeps: play this one for the one you love.
Every service
The same records, wherever you press play.
Spotify and Apple Music open the BeatZ.GurU artist page. YouTube Music, Amazon Music, Deezer, Tidal, and YouTube search the name, so the catalog stays attached to this artist and not to a lookalike. The same sleeves are listed under each service. New posts land on @BeatZ_GurU. The mix show, Electro Hippie Freaks, is the spoken companion to the records.
The catalog
Every sleeve on the catalog.
These are the sleeves that can be dated on Spotify and Apple Music. Backdraft is the 2023 marker. 2024 and 2025 carry Into Life as We Know It, Just Keep Going, Keeping Love Alive, Lost in Translation, One Life, For the Love of Gabby, Of L.I.O.N.S. and Men, Elektrapica II, Show Some Teeth, and 25 Hits in a Minor. 2026 adds A Touch of Acid, Addicted to the Beat, Honey Just Listen a Minute, and Play This for the One You Love. Each sleeve links the release across Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube Music, Amazon Music, Deezer, and Tidal.
Life
The part that can be dated.
BeatZ.GurU is a producer, recording artist, and sound engineer, with homage claimed from the Southern states. What follows is the public trail, not a private diary. Years that were never written down are not filled in. The name on the work is Kent Borgos. The public name is BeatZ.GurU.

The work
Three jobs, one name
The published line is the job description: professional music producer, recording artist, sound engineer. The homage is to the Southern states. The beat, the vocal, and the finish are listed as one practice, not three brands.

2017
The name goes up
@BeatZ_GurU opens on 16 June 2017. The site address in the bio is beatz.guru. That is the start of the public record, not a birth date. From that point the name, the site, and the posts are the trail that can be checked.
-
2019
Artificial Intelligence
31 August 2019, a cover goes up under that title. The sleeves come before the long essay. The art is part of the life, and it is one of the first dated pieces that can be pointed at.

2020
Midlothian, Virginia
March 2020, posts tagged Midlothian point listeners to SoundCloud, YouTube, Spotify, and BeatStars, and to the site. The room, as the posts give it, is in Virginia. Nothing here moves that room to another city.

2026
Still signing Virginia
July 2026: “Happy Birthday from Virginia.” Late summer, Addicted to the Beat. The square sleeves on this page — Play This For The One You Love, Honey Just Listen a Minute, Game On, and the visitor covers — are the current art. The catalog grid below is the longer list.

The desk
Pads, then the finish
The working setup is an Akai MPC with a Novation Launch Control beside it. Beats start on the pads. Records, mix, and master happen in the same room. That is the desk the studio section describes.
The room
What the studio does.
The room is the MPC, the Launch Control, and the finish. Beats, records, mix, and master are offered as the same practice. Sessions are booked by email to booking@beatz.guru. No account, no tracker.
-
01
Beats
MPC-first instrumentals. Drums with weight, samples that sit in the pocket, arrangements that leave room for a voice. The pad work is the start of the record, not a separate product.
-
02
Records
Artist sessions from sketch to final. Hooks, verses, and the takes that only happen after the third pass. The catalog singles are the public proof of that path: a sleeve, a date, and a service link.
-
03
Mix & master
Engineered for speakers that lie and phones that don’t. Loud enough, never brittle. Mix and master stay in the same room as the pads, so the finish is not handed off to a name that is not on the sleeve.
-
04
MPC sessions
Pad work, chop sessions, and live performance layouts for the Akai MPC and a Launch Control beside it. The desk listed on the bio is the desk offered here.
The name
A guru is just somebody who stayed in the room.
BeatZ.GurU is the working name of Kent Borgos, a producer, recording artist, and sound engineer. The name is the job description. The beat, the vocal, and the finish are the same person. The homage he claims is to the Southern states, not to a borrowed city bio.
The public trail starts on 16 June 2017, when @BeatZ_GurU opens and the bio points to beatz.guru. That date is the start of the record, not a birth date. Years that were never written down are not filled in here. By 31 August 2019 the sleeves are already part of the life: a cover goes up under the title Artificial Intelligence. In March 2020, posts tagged Midlothian, Virginia, send listeners to SoundCloud, YouTube, Spotify, BeatStars, and the site. In July 2026 he is still signing the place: “Happy Birthday from Virginia.”
The desk is an Akai MPC with a Novation Launch Control beside it. Beats start on the pads. Records, mix, and master happen in the same room. The published offer is four jobs under one name: MPC-first instrumentals, artist sessions from sketch to final, mix and master that hold up on phones, and pad work for the MPC. Loud enough, never brittle.
The catalog is the biography that can be dated. Backdraft arrives in 2023. Through 2024 and 2025 the singles stack up: Into Life as We Know It, Just Keep Going, Keeping Love Alive, Lost in Translation, One Life, For the Love of Gabby, Of L.I.O.N.S. and Men, Elektrapica II, Show Some Teeth, 25 Hits in a Minor, and the rest of the sleeve grid. 2026 brings A Touch of Acid, Addicted to the Beat, Honey Just Listen a Minute, and Play This for the One You Love. Spotify and Apple Music hold the artist pages. The other services are searched under this name so the catalog stays with BeatZ.GurU.
Off the pads, the mix show is Electro Hippie Freaks, hosted with Gabster. New music lands on @BeatZ_GurU. The site is the front door.
