20 Beats is Boy Eats Drum Machine's new digital-only release of 20 instrumentals, each with it's own album cover. Starting with a break by a local Portland drummer (or vegan beat boxer) from Bridgetown Breaks volumes 1 and 2, Jon Ragel hammered each track into form using turntable, synthesizer, guitar, and tenor saxophone. The album features the percussion skills of Danny Seim, Kevin O'Connor, Charles Neal, Drew Shoals, Paul Alcott, Fogatron, Amanda Spring, Josh Skins, Sam Schauer, and Kevin Robinson.

For people who can't cop the full album, here's a preview of "Josh Skins," named after the drummer who dropped the sick break. Also, please note that track 15, "7 to the Right," is an ode to Brandon Roy.
