Artist Profile
Name: MagiTek
Label:
Location: Orlando FL
Biography:
MagiTek is an ever evolving musical project with roots that could be described as "geeky rap synth noise". If one were to describe it by recognised genres, various songs could fall under "techno", "industrial", and "nerdcore". Forming right at the turn of the century, the group (primarily a duo) does have a notable but humble history. 'Tis is a tale one can read HERE.
In most recent times, The Magitechnicians (Quartz Relic and Thugmasta J) completed their third and most advanced album mid 2006. Entitled "Distorting Reality For Better Perception", it was the result of three years of chaotic development. This was due to the many diversions and distractions Quartz and J encountered along the path (of heroes).
The title of the album depicts a theme that runs though out the hour long disc. That being distorting reality by escaping into fantasy, by indulging in creativity, and even manipulating the ideas of time and space altogether. 50% lyrical songs, 50% instrumental glimpses into the M-Tek mythos. Scattered within are samples too numerous to list. And a few collaborators, both old and new.
