Once upon a time, way before Ableton
A turntablist, he wanted to make a mix
Take a hit and lengthen the instrumental
This experimental utensil became essential

School birds heard it, so they jumpin' up
Kool Herc had to turn the function up
The use of wordsmithing was just coming up
When emcees pick up the mic and run amok

And artists bomb buildings, no napalm but calm feelings
Expression was a message delivered to all children
Hittin' the floor when that breakbeat drop
Fresh out the boombox, that tape be hot

Hip-hop is unstoppable, surviving impossible
Odds to make positive out of overlapping of obstacles
Optically prodigal, opposite of bottom and palpable
It's Morpheus, Neo, Oracle, the Trinity honor roll

I'm a wonky, wavy, psychonaut from Reno baby. Out here chillin' it and killin' it every day. Spitting lyrics from heart and making those tunes so you can hear it, wasn't sure where to start, though I done it all with spirit. 

I also have been known to get down with dropping what you would call the "Space Sauce" anytime I get on a set. Always lookin' forward to the next dope track I'll make or come across, as there's so many excellent peeps out there makin' those excellent sounds, and they all deserve to have them heard more.
