Encyclopedia
The TrackSlayerz are a production team consisting of members Dexter “Inf” Randall, Demetri “Price” Duncan, and Charles “Chip” Bobino III.

Background

Inf (born February 20, 1989 (age 22)) grew up in a military family, traveling extensively within the U.S. and internationally during his childhood. This lifestyle “exposed (him) to a wide range of music from an early age." Price (born November 07, 1988 (age 23)) caught the music making bug after hearing “Next Episode” by Dr. Dre. Intrigued by the components of good music, Price began creating his own in 2003. Although Chip (born December 30, 1987 (age 24) did not start producing original material until meeting Inf in 2006, he is an accomplished trumpet player whose ear for music spans across a multitude of genres.

Price crossed paths with Inf on Soundclick.com in 2005. They swapped beats but fell out of contact over time. However, in the summer of 2006, they reconnected and exchanged beats. During their detachment, Inf had been working at perfecting his use of FL Studio

 (then FruityLoops), which he was introduced to in 2001 and still credits as the “main weapon in the TrackSlayerz’s production arsenal." Having grown in their production skills, they liked the development of each other’s sounds, decided to work
together and the TrackSlayerz production team was established. In early 2007, Chip — a high school friend and co-producer of Inf — joined the team.
