The beats have that classic "golden-age of hip-hop" sound and the lyrics are very critical of the government, to say the least, and set to spark a revolution when the opportunity arises.First and foremost, Mayday is a beat producer, then a DJ and finally a lyricist. Being an ardent political activist and having so many beats readily available, it was only natural for him to pick up the pen and the mic. Most of his beats are currently made using an MPC-4000, however he has also utilized the SP-1200, ASR-10, ASR-X, MPC-60, MPC-3000, MPC-2000, Mirage, EPS 16+, S-950 and SP-12. He spins only vinyl (strickly real), although he began at an early age making "pause/break" mixes with a dual cassette deck--before sneaking into his father's DJ room (Nasty Nel) in '88. By '92 he had his first turns and began producing beats on a Gemini "push button" sampler and a TR-707. He started the hip-hop group Tactix with Lucky and Kid Hyp in high school , which later evolved and grew into ESP when in college. While steadily recording demos onto four-track recorders with the crew and pumping out mixtapes w/ his P in C UnPaid Bill he also linked up with The Demigodz and became Ap's DJ from '96-2000.................................................... ............... .......Mayday has also had various college radio shows, including "Monday Nitro" w/ Luck-D on 90.1 in Poughkeepsie, "Tuesday Night at the Fights" with UnPaid Bill and Hired Gun on WMCR and "The Boombox from the Boondox" with Apathy on 91.7 WHUS in CT (which ironically was the exact show timeslot of DJ Doc 9 in the early 80's, where Mayday first loved Hip-Hop)......... ....... After teaching in Flatbush Brooklyn for several years and meeting his wife, Angel D, Mista Mayday and then fiance' moved to Portugal, backpacked around Europe, studied Marxism and wrote "The Algebra of Revolution" album, his freshman solo release. Mayday currently resides and continues to record with ESP at The Rebel Base, an undisclosed location, where he is raising his daughter and plotting the revolution to free all from the wicked class system known as Capitalism. The saga continues... ------------------------------------------------------------ -------------------------- -----------------POSTCARD FROM THE REBEL BASE------------------------------- ---------------------It's mad cold down here---------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------ --------------------------------------------------- ESP has an extensive underground catalogue, including two EPs (Big Bang-CD and Eternal Soul Prophets-Vinyl) and two full-length CDs (Strange Force and Quantum). On the solo tip, Mayday has released two full length CDs (The Algebra of Revolution and Public Property) as well as produced The Usual Suspects debut CD (Motive) and an instrumental CD (The Outer Limits). Mista Mayday along with UnPaid Bill of ESP have also been releasing some of the dopest mixtapes since 1996, including the Dragon Series. Mayday is currently performing with the Frequency Activism project featuring Statistics, Hired Gun, Paint Dragon and a Live Funk/Jazz Band.
