Early life[edit]
Noah Beresin was born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
As a child, Beresin was trained in piano, and he attended a children's music education program held at the Philadelphia Clef Club.[1] He began working as a recording engineer & DJ while in high school.[2] Later, Beresin briefly attended Drexel University.
Music career[edit]
Chiddy Bang[edit]
In late 2008, Beresin formed a music project called Chiddy Bang with Chidera Anamege. Beresin, working under the stage name Xaphoon Jones, was responsible for the production. He produced free, downloadable mixtapes for the group in 2009, and then opted to drop out of university.[3]
In 2011, the group signed to Parlophone Records and released 1 EP, followed by 1 album in 2012. After its release, Beresin departed the group to focus on songwriting and production for other artists.
Production work[edit]
In 2012, Beresin and mixing engineer Ryan Schwabe co-founded Rare MP3s, a Philadelphia based mixing and mastering company that would later become a club night & record label. Their first works included a Baauer remix of Disclosure’s “You & Me” and Ellie Goulding’s cover of Alt-J’s “Tessellate”, the latter of which was included on Halcyon Days as a bonus track.[4]
In 2013, he produced songs for Ellie Goulding, Wiley, Big Boi, and the debut EP for the American indie-pop band Wet.
From 2015 onward, Beresin produced music for a diverse range of artists like Santigold, Christine & The Queens, Spank Rock, Tei Shi & Blood Orange, Ty Dolla $ign, Tobi Lou, Tory Lanez, Carly Rae Jepsen, Broods, Khalid, DVSN, and EricDOA.
In 2016, Pitchfork called him "an increasingly important behind-the-scenes force" in a review of the debut project from rapper Tunji Ige, citing his work with Jeremih as well as electronic producer Baauer.[5]
As a session musician, he's played on recordings for bands like Hop Along, as well as artists such as Pink $weats.
In 2023, Beresin produced the debut album for the New Zealand indie rock project Georgia Gets By, released via the labels Fat Possum/Luminelle.
As a co-writer of the song 'Alone With You' by Kito & Aluna, which was sampled by Skrillex for the song 'Inhale / Exhale', Beresin earned his first Grammy nomination for the album Quest For Fire.[6]
