About Me


Transistor Fist is seeking to meld music, art and experience into a contemporary soundscape that crosses genres while staying true to its hip-hop roots.
The Atlanta-based group utilizes various influences from the obvious rap music sector, jazz and rock the group collects on vinyl, to the influences of literary revolutionary thinkers and organizations of the Civil Rights era and existentialism. The project is also tempered with artistic influences of Dadaism, nihilism and the guerilla/street arts with a serious nod to contemporary socio-political theory.
The group consists of Tha' Goodson and Bret Boogie, who also release music as Imperial Element. Although this CD is Transistor Fist's proper debut, the duo has released two 12-inch singles: "Gotta' Live" b/w "Ominous" and "Erection" b/w "Who" and "Astrologic". Both records gained wide airplay at college and non-commercial radio around the country and were picked up by the well-respected DJ organizations Heavyweights Record Pool, S.U.R.E. Record Pool, Ricketts Record Pool and others.
