in invisible ink we keep it on the regular

About Me

Organic Intelekt are based in melbourne: we are some white australian boys who like to play rap music - call it hiphop if you like, we just drop beats and 3oB rhymes over them. We talk about the shit that is important to us as humans, sometimes it's party-vibes, generally it's day-to-day, often it's on a social-conscience tip (that's to say, we don't disrespect women; any race - except our own sometimes - or gays (all yall homo-bashers got somethin to hide I reckon). Just listen to the music hey, that's the best idea. We've been doin this thing for 3 years now, but the roots are deeper. 3oB has been emceein/beatboxing since he was a wee bairn, his mum asking 'Liam are you making noises again?' - around the time salt n pepa dropped 'pushit'. murders mics with Agency dub Collective too. Danos has always been a fiend for the beat, drioppin live hiphop/breakbeat and drum n bass since the 90s up in canberra (sound like pushin shit uphill? well, that's some hebrew shit if you ask me, likes to work hard). G fresh lays down tasty keys whatever the setup. jazz sensibility without the ego, one mellow brother. rhodes is like fresh erb, wafting on the track, fills in the cracks. MarkE brings the low. Resonant sub frequencies provide all the ass-shakin, foundation rupturing capacity needed. Also rocks tuba with blues legend CW stoneking and kills it with the Hoodangers - a straight up legend on the melbourne music scene, seasoned professional and top f'kn bloke ya c'nt. The master, from the smart state to our eratic city is one of oz's most reputable turntablists. holding a raft of titles, old son is a hardened battler and hustles his shit on the regular. perpetually keeping hiphop alive and fresh in melbourne's streets and always supporting the up-and-coming, The Master delivers the scratch finesse like no other. powers combined....well, you'll have to wait for the 12. Keep ears posted folks. peace. I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4
