Antipop Consortium
Are an incredible hip-hop outfit who showcase not only fluid raps,
brilliant rhymes and impeccable delivery, but also production that
defines any sort of categorization--elements of musique concrete,
turntablism, trademark hip-hop, glitch, and subdued elements of
noise and drone. Their last album before they disbanded in 2005
was a collaboration with Matthew Shipp, an avant-garde pianist
in the vein of Cecil Taylor, so their music could just as easily go
in the "experimental" thread. My personal favorite is Arrhythmia
(which is in the shoutbox) which sounds like a mix of Aesop,
RJD2 and Black Dice.
