Perceptive Records Inc.

Perceptive Records Inc.is an independent label catering to the average fun-loving hip hop head who is in search for some good tunes. Perceptive Recordings was born in 1999 as a result of label politics with Epic, Mercury, Gee Street, Payday, Priority, Rawkus (Brian & Miss Gomez thank you for showing interest), LandSpeed & Bronx Science/Buds all due to the usual bullsh*t cloud of sadness. "Them not giving us what we wanted"... and yes, it's that simple, "A little freedom from lethal strong-hold to record with others we had seen fit to match our caliber & wits", "ideas regarding marketing & distribution were dismissed", "assets for an excursion into Europe on some promote type vibe was denied", "contracts wanted our blood well scripted on line by that all too familiar "X" but wouldn't grant health insurance, a well crafted pension plan, our masters nor publishing","If a product is given on the strength you accept it's content and were more than pleased to move units out to the masses as quickly as possible, then when done so... explain why would "the hunt" begin for payment?" this automatic process should be granted, "we weren't about to compromise and risk losing our ghosts for something we love dearly". As some of the times it will occur...internal differences erupted which led one talented emcee to leave the group right after a tight demo was cut for Sm:)e Communications (A division of Profile Records). Which left a couple pacing in limbo for a minute. Conglomerates (remain under waiting for our time to strike and reclaim the earth). Hella gratitude goes out to Plain Pat "Coupe deville" & dub-L for the production, patience, guidance, believing, free time in the studio & almost making it happen for us on that particular project. As time passed, some of these same labels that were interested in our group went under or just began to suck real bad like rusty/dusty broads with Narcolepsy and that's when a true believer/mentor/brother & friend Lee Lugo decided to establish his own imprint and bring a nasty/crazy ill/nice/mental/rapid fire/dope/fly/fresh sound to the streets makin' our only 2 fans extremely cheerful. Thank you Tom Tom Martinez for the lil' assist in take off, all was appreciated. Working with chump change by industry standards Lee Lugo went ahead and pressed up their first 12inch "Metallic Wings" b/w "Astrological" & "Meta.Phor's Mutiny" in the winter of 1999 into 2000. The label has been brought to life by a bunch of tight knit friends who share the same love & passion for this music. We have chipped in a great amount of time & effort to help see our music grow getting into the hands of many. With very little money to none for promotions we had to try and work the clock 24/7 inorder to get dj's across the US and Europe to give us a chance. As the promo's went out we began to receive lots of loving for our 1st born and since then we've kept improving making dope records for our people to spin on the regular. As far as our catalog goes....there is not much but there is a handful of "dumb hot" songs to choose from. Again, we know it's been a minute and we apologize for our almost 4 year hiatus (life's ill and terrible things happen when you least expect it) but trust us...the new ish is simply techjunglefirewordyscratchfilthyoutofsight smashing.
