Bunker Beats was a concept birthed out of the time IceRocks spent 48 hours locked in the studio during deadly Hurricane Irene. IceRocks was in full preparation mode to be around incase any type of disaster occurred or go out doing what he loved. During his time in the bunker, Ice decided he would stay there and make beats until the power went out or worse. Supplied with thousands of records and a few drum machines IceRocks got to work. Fortunately, the power only went out for a short period towards the end of the process and he was able to get lost in the music and build the foundation for what would become the Bunker Beats experience.
