Double Helix The Gene Pool

What happens when you combined the two most ingenuous creative ARTIST/producers in the hip-hop world again, "The Gene Pool" EP They've done it again! Super Producers/emcees Illastr8ed and Grand Architect isolated the basic elements that made the first EP, "The Strain" such a success and enhanced that specific material. This time around the recording process was completed with lightning quickness with all 7 tracks done in the 7 days leading up to 4/20/2014. Double Helix unifies that incredible productivity and genuinely comes through proving the duo is capable of achieving musical goals. These artists strive to recapture the true essence of feeling inspired to make music. That part seems to come so natural, now the team focuses on incorporating more and more rhyme bending challenges. Songs like, 'Present Tense' and 'Give It Up' has the unsurpassed quality necessary to have significant replay value.
The Gene Pool is a classic analogy to display the blending of our people. Now the meaning takes on a whole new identity by using Hip Hop as a platform. DH has honed in on combining the correct amount of experience and expertise. Now a day there seems to be a stagnant diluted sense of quality passing off as radio worthy, so in turn Double Helix releases "The Gene Pool" album to challenges the usual music selection. Also this marks the first occasion Grand Architect and Illastr8ed release a FREE downloadable album solely featuring the Double Helix. All the ingredients come together into "The Gene Pool" so take the plunge and dive right in; Cook Book Records also join forces with Mega label Darkstarz Records to ensure to the most widespread release to date.

http://thegrandarchitect.bandcamp.com/album/the-mortal-coil

Humans have throughout time exerted themselves to have release from the physical form and ascend into a higher state of existence, yet now the common goal of society seems entirely satisfied with accepting your chains that bind us to the creation and blind us to the creator. We now look towards the future in hope of answers that bring us closer to find out what life is truly about. 

The Grand Architect, has embarked on a quest to relay powerful messages through rhyme. The struggles of the everyday tend to avert our attention on the relevance of why we are really here. Aptly titled "The Mortal Coil" this debut solo album will explore Grand Architect's idea of transience, life purpose, destiny etc. The title track "The Mortal" produced by 5th Seal of the Beat Bandits sets the tone for the album's agenda. Tracks like "The Real Reason" produced by DJ Nightfloor keeps the deep conscious theme rolling. Even for as serious as the subject matter is, Grand Architect manages to slip in some comical material with "Stop Clowning Around" produced by Vherbal of Enemy Soil and Anno Domini Nation. This is a culmination of works that's actually showcases one different producer for the 14 track listing which provides a variety of sounds to match up against Grand Architect's deliberatestyle. 

Well known for features ranging from international to national to local, Grand Architect take the proper steps to solidify his standing in the Hip Hop platform as an established solo artist. Already working with Cook Book Records counterpart Illastr8ed for another group 'Double Helix' album and a collaborative project with international French connection 'Alalmy'. Look for "The Mortal Coil" in an exclusive outlet market thanks to Darkstarz Records and the Brain Kave Music Group, physical and digital merchandise to hit shelves for an autumn release.

After the aftermath G Life and Evo linked up in the studio and was offered a choice between two Percee P verses as payment and a token of good will. Once Evo was able to show the verse to Grand Architect history was already in the making. Ill-a-str8d's freshflamenco style instrumental accentuated the ongoing "Amigo" word and theme. Percee's vocals rooted themselves into the beat and made for amazing result. Already seeing the project growing to an immense scale, Grand Architect implemented the use of new found affiliates based in Columbia, J Beat of the Neckbreakers (Big Bang Latino) and South Korean super producer/engineer A June to handle the professional mixing and mastering. Basically get ready for Hip Hop history to be documented and make sure to become apart of the record books.

Grand Architect is here to change the face of the Hip Hop realm entirely. The flagship artist and co-founder of Cook Book Records, Grand Arch seeks talented independent artists to offer the exchange of professional media services. Thanks to the close knit community of producers, graphic artists, industry reps, promo agents as well as emcees makes up the backbone of the Grand Arch's overall success. Staples of the Hip Hop beat making society, super producers such as; Panik (Molemen Inc.), Vherbal (Enemy Soil), J Beats (Big Bang Latino) lay down the groundwork towards the completion on the debut LP, "Endangered Species". CBR in house production from Ill-a-str8d has been responsible for such hits as, 'Going On Tour' feat. Main Flow (MOOD) and 'So Smooth' feat. J Sands (Lone Catalysts) and Rashad (Elev8tor Music) all available on Double Helix's EP "The Strain" released 2012. Also mostly noted for his strong cannabis advocacy, Grand Architect solidified that stance when he worked with the Grand Buddha Master Himself B REAL of Cypress Hill creating the hit single, 'Crop Circles' of B Real's solo album "The Harvest" released in 2010. 

"The end result is 'The Harvest'. B Real has recruited some of the hottest underground emcees to stand by his side. After releasing the first Cypress Hill album in 5 years earlier this year, B couldn't imagine a better time to begin planting the seeds for the next crop of emcee's to bless the mic."

Born Dec 5 1981 Mark Joseph Howell Jr., into the land of enchantment New Mexico was the embodiment of an eighties baby. As early as age 9 groups like Digable Planets, Cypress Hill, Rakim etc. left an inspirational infection which to this day still has no cure. By 13 he had begun tinkering around with groundbreaking new music software such as Rebirth, Cubase, Soundforge producing beats for emcees in the local vicinity. Digging for records was a pastime throughout high school. Grand Arch sharpened his skills as an Ableton audio engineer, mixing and mastering until recording finally invaded the majority of the time. Finally a graduation from the sound academy provided by Douglas Geist of Sante Fe Center Studios which does the audio for TV's popular series "Breaking Bad", Grand Architect was more than confident in his musical aptitude. Now Grand Architect works on ensuring the continuity of our most precious commodity, Hip Hop.
