Arcane and Syne are originally from Chicago and Cincinnati, respectively. Dialects was formed in 1999, in St. Pete FL, where the group grew together and developed their talents. In 2002, Dialects two lead emcees moved to Philadelphia in hopes to progress their music forward in a more competitive scene, and have been submersed in the Philly underground since, joining forces with many of the local noteriety in efforts to further establish their presence. After crossing paths with a local label enough times to think they were extended family Dialects joined their collective of incredible musicians and talented emcees. This collective, Burndown(check for them on myspace), has taken Philly by storm and has begun small tours over the entire East Coast. Burndown's premise? Take the best vocalists and intrumentalists from the most noteable underground philadelphia bands and crus to create what has been written about as "the best music out of Philly since the Roots". Dialects also work with their lifelong bredren Bobo Righteous of Humble Camp, whose label and web of members spreads from the Virgin Islands and Florida, to Philadelphia and Brooklyn. Though Dialects can be found all over the East Coast and occasionally in the MidWest they remain primarily grounded in our nations first capital and city of brotherly love, Philadelphia.
Dialects began 2006 with a recording mission to Kingston, Jamaica. They recorded 5 singles with three different studios. One track was voiced at the notorious Xterminator Records, one with Nas Hammond of the Harmony House Camp and three more with producer's Yogi & Lenn Hammond of Fiwi Records. Keep your ear to IRIE FM over the next couple of months. Since returning, Dialects continue to perform live regularly in and around the city, and plan to release their next album on the Humble Camp label with larger distribution support.
