Bio:
In grade 11, I was writing poetry and pretending I could DJ (with my highschool's mixer (I borrowed it from the audio/visual club) and Dren's turntable). I was in a DJ group with Dren, Asteryx (TakeOne) and Variable. We sucked. I think TakeOne still DJ's, he got good too, but everyone else realized they sucked and quit DJ'ing. Then Dren started making beats, and I recorded a song (dissing a girl that didn't like me back... the epitome of "emo"). The song was decent. Then me and Dren formed The Write Brothers. During this time, Factor, Forgetful Jones, and Chaps recorded and released an album as CF Crew. It was dope, everyone liked it. The Write Brothers recorded an album, and it was good. We never released it.
Here are two songs from it:
Write Brothers (Nolto and Dren) - Weathered Wings
Nature - 3 Bucks

Then I started hanging out with Factor and Chaps and the crew (we all went to the same highschool, though at different times). I recorded an album with Factor and Comma Concept as "A Homemade Effort". We burned about 100 cdrs and sold them for 5 bucks.
Here are a few songs from it:

Then I recorded "Getting Too Know Me" for Factor's Consoul Confessions. The next thing I know, I'm a celebrity. Eventually I'm rollin' on SideRoad Records, and they release my solo album "All Over the Right Here" with Factor's production. People like it.
I recently got married to a beautiful and wonderful girl named Tamara. We're in love.
On September 20th 2005, my second full length album was released in North America: Nolto and Factor - Red All Over. Pick it up at Phonographique.com . It was released previously (September 3rd) in Asia, and has been doing well.
