BETA Records - Your music matters!

Six years ago in the rural town of Bend, Oregon, the group known as the V.E.R.A. Clique (P/K/A): Very Essence of Real Artists) began to form. Current members are Anderson Ray and Mascen Apollo. They met at a Bend pool hall called the “Scratch Shot”. Anderson witnessed Macsen “rocking the mic”. They exchanged numbers and began to meet regularly to freestyle. Three years later, Macsen moved to the San Francisco Bay area. Anderson moved to Portland Oregon, staying in contact. Also in the Bay Area was another friend from Bend, Dan Craig. Macsen began to perfect his craft using beats created by Dan who had a natural talent for producing beats. Macsen convinced Dan to invest in a small home studio. This investment eventually closed the circle that became V.E.R.A. Clique. Numerous trips to and from Oregon to California, convinced Anderson that they could accomplish more if he were to relocate to the Bay Area. After three years apart, Anderson and Macsen and Dan officially formed the V.E.R.A. Clique and began working on their first demo. V.E.R.A. Clique has mastered & professionally pressed up 2000 copies (cd’s & vinyl) of their Album. It was released on their independent label “Veraucracy Ink”. To date they are working on the 2nd Vera Clique album as well as trying to build a roster of artists for their Label, all the while shopping for a Distribution Deal.
