Seismic Tremors
Mysterio crafted this dark track for Anoir and Aya to display their lyrical abilities. Horn stabs shock the drum track along with eerie sounds complimenting their complex verses.

Lyrical Masterblasters (2010 Remix)
The original version of this song was recorded in a bathroom in the summer of 1993. Mysterio has updated the song with new cuts, drums and sound effects but the same sample cultivated from the crates by J.O.B. remains.

Rare Artist Series: Canibus - Channel Zero
Canibus' first album was somewhat of a disappointment but I feel it had some shining moments despite all the self promoted hype. I remember Canibus painting himself silver at the MTV awards and just shaking my head in bewilderment. We also remember him battling with the LL and dragging out that one-sided feud for years onward.
Anyhow, his first album and the numerous albums that have followed have been a big mixed bag. A lot of tight verses - lyrically and phonetically. A lot of mediocre music and some disastrously wack hooks. This song in particular has some great conspiracy tinged lyrics that sound so good to me that it almost takes over and makes me forget the extremely lame chorus.

A fourteen part series from the session up in Connecticut at Lamada's Laboratory. Live drums, bass, keys, kalimba, turntables, etc. provide the tools for which these guys used to just have some fun making music.
