In early 1986, The Mentor wrote The Conscience of a Hacker, which has become known as The Hacker Manifesto. When I came across it as a teenager a couple of years later, it seemed to express all of my own thoughts around coding, hacking and the ignorant, non-believer adults around me. 

This album is dedicated to The Manifesto and The Mentor, who is featured with his blessing on the closing track. You'll also find the only vocalist in the world who is qualified to rap about all aspects of hacking -- YTCracker -- featured on a track. Inverse Phase and King Fisher of TRIAD also join us, gracing two tracks with musical and binary street cred that goes back decades.
