Virtual Coffee · 15 min · free

Let's grab a virtual coffee.

Under 1,000 monthly listeners? Good.

I'm Vaynex, boom-bap producer from Switzerland. I'm looking for rappers before the numbers come, not after. Answer a few questions and I'll read every word myself.

Who I'm looking for.

Numbers don't matter here. These four do.

01

Bars

You write your own lyrics, and you mean every line.

02

Voice

You sound like you, even if only a few people have heard it yet.

03

Story

You have something to say that nobody else can say for you.

04

Hunger

You want the next step this year, not someday.

Not the right fit if you just need a beat file and go. The beat catalog is faster for that.

The guy behind the beats

I'm Vaynex.

A boom-bap producer with one rule: no compromises. Dusty drums, hand-picked samples and the raw, head-nodding energy of the golden era.

After a deliberate restart as a beatmaker, I build songs with independent rappers who want substance, not filler. Next to boom bap there's a darker cinematic trap side, for rappers who need to let something out.

Most producers send a link and wait. I'd rather know who I make music with. That's what the coffee is for: you talk, I listen. If it clicks, we figure out the next step together.

Want to see how I work first? I make my beats on camera, from the first sample to the drop, on @vaynex061.

    You book

    If it fits, I send you a personal link to book your 15 minutes on video.

A few honest sentences are enough.

08If we click: are you ready to invest in yourself? *

The coffee is on me. If it fits, you invest in beats for your songs. We talk about the price in the call.

You'll hear back within 48 hours by email.

What rappers say.

"Working with Vaynex is always inspiring. His raw boom bap sound is both gritty and atmospheric, and he's incredibly prolific, responsive, and easy to work with. His beats create the kind of mood that instantly makes you want to start writing."

"Vaynex is a real one. Same age, same journey through this culture. His beats don’t chase trends - they carry weight. That’s rare these days. Working together felt natural because we speak the same language. If you want quality production from someone who actually knows his shit, that’s your producer."

"Lavorare con Vaynex è molto bello e dinamico. Uno dei produttori migliori con cui ho collaborato, oltre professionalità anche carisma e gentilezza."

One of the best producers I've worked with: professional, charismatic and kind.

"Ho vissuto un’esperienza positiva. É stata una collaborazione nata casualmente che rifarei. Vaynex é professionale, preciso e di parola (cosa non scontata di questi tempi)."

I had a positive experience. It was a collaboration that came about by chance, and one I would do again. Vaynex is professional, precise and keeps his word (which isn’t a given these days).

"Franchement, gros coup de cœur pour les instrus de Vaynex. Dès la première écoute, je me suis dit : c’est avec lui que je veux bosser. Ses drums ont cette vibe new-yorkaise 90’s que je kiffe, avec une vraie identité derrière. On ne parle même pas la même langue, mais on s’est compris direct. Pas besoin de grands discours quand on partage la même culture : le hip-hop est un langage universel. Les Romands, si vous cherchez un beatmaker suisse qui a du son et du caractère, allez écouter Vaynex. Vous êtes au bon endroit."

Honestly, I fell hard for Vaynex’s beats. From the very first listen I thought: he’s the one I want to work with. His drums have that 90s New York vibe I love, with a real identity behind them. We don’t even speak the same language, but we understood each other right away. No need for big speeches when you share the same culture: hip-hop is a universal language. French-speaking Swiss, if you’re looking for a Swiss beatmaker with sound and character, go listen to Vaynex. You’re in the right place.

Your next song starts with a coffee.
