5iLL – Skatter Brain Fokus

Wednesday, November 16th, 2011


For longtime USM fan’s you already know of 5iLL & his emcee skills as showcased on every USM release to date…so in a way it’s odd but also fitting that instead of a regular rap album the multi- talented 5iLL wanted to bless you with an instrumental album 1st! Son of an accomplished detroit area jazz drummer 5iLL was born with rythym in his bloodstream. Pop’s dna is blissfully reborn and translated into choppin & loopin the wax in this hip-hop day and age. 5iLL uses all types of equipment and methods to make beats with, but he mainly messes with a Fisher Price my first MP (Akai MPC 500) to sample vinyl records and lay live instrumentation over. Skatter Brain Fokus is collection of instrumentals compiled over the past 4 years traveling from machine to computer to machine; city to city to city ; state to state; protools, to cd, to internet, to you. 5iLL has yet to track a single beat properly to this day. His approach to recording is a function of functioning with dis-functional equipment. These beats were created in the zone of creation, without any prior notion as to what it would sound like before. Most of these sequences are unquantized and freestyled with limited editing after.This collection of instrumentals is the beat makers meditation. Scatter brain days pass at a feverish pace, music can bring focus by seperating us from ourselves. Zoneout, Get hype, freestyle, enjoy!

Metasyons – “Unemployment” LP Release Party FRIDAY AUGUST 12th @ THE SHELTER

Thursday, July 14th, 2011


METASYONS – BLACKMAN Directed by Joe Petrous and Aaron Biggs

Metasyons is back! Thank the eviction notice for that. The “Unemployment” LP is unearthed. Metasyons the USM anchor MC weighty enough to crack sediment is smashing these rappers down to atomic particles this August….Watch for that fallout! The only place safe enough to contain such a devastating force of nature is THE SHELTER. The tried & tested Los Alamos of the Detroit Hip-Hop scene.

The LP, entirely produced by USM cohort Crate Digga is much needed sustinance for the m.a.r.v.i.n. starved masses fueling their push through the aftershocks of Michigan’s economic shakedown. Metasyons’ “Unemployment” LP is the sniffing salt and cold press for the bruised & battered souls trudging through this 12 round recession. This is the anthem to ride to whenever shit get’s ROUGH!

METASYONS “Unemployment” LP. | Produced by:Crate Digga
Live! Album Release Party FRIDAY AUGUST 12TH @ THE SHELTER
(ST. ANDREW’S HALL) 431 E. Congress Detroit, Mi | 9:30pm-2am | 18+
we got $5.00 pre-sale tickets…get @ us aaronbiggs180@gmail.com
