MC's:

TNOC (abstracttraxx.com, [Only registered and activated users can see links. ], atarisafari.com, Spread the Word, illmagic.com, CT)
Connecticut based MC Tnoc began writing hip hop lyrics at the age of 13. Now with over 12 years experience, this veteran lyricist has become a staple in the northeast hip hop and rave scene. Recently forming an unstoppable duo with freestyle rhymer/b-boy and long time friend MC Napalm, the two have been creating a serious buzz in new England and the Tri-State area for their work in both hip hop and drum n' bass. Tnoc collaborates with many different DJ's, MC's, Producers, and Musicians in many different genres of music. Tnoc got his start performing live back in 2001 rhyming over jump up drum n' bass. He began running a drum n' bass/breakbeat weekly along with his other group members in early 2002. In late 2002 Tnoc formed his own record label, Abstract Traxx, and self released his debut album of original hip hop songs in late 2003. Now in 2005, he is touring all over the Northeast with a second hip hop album in the works, as well as some original drum n' bass productions. Abstract Traxx has now branched out to include services of music production (for vocal artists), promotion, ghostwriting, and event planning/production. Tnoc's multiple syllable rhyming style combined with intelligent metaphors leaves him a force to be reckoned with. Tnoc's open minded approach to music always leads to an innovative performance disregarding the typical boundaries of genres.


Napalm (abstracttraxx.com, atarisafari.com, Spread the Word, illmagic.com, CT)
MC Napalm first became immersed in hip hop culture in the late 80's in New Jersey where he learned the art of b-boyin', poppin', and lockin'. After moving to CT, he began to hone his skills as a freestyle MC at age 14. Napalm is known for picking apart the competition and cutting them down to size with his fierce delivery and his clever battle rhymes. Now teamed up with long time friend Tnoc, the two bring styles that are as different as night and day, but come together for a better combination than milk and cookies. They are known for their old school breakbeat style seamlessly blended with groundbreaking new sub-genres of hip hop. Napalm is well known all across the Tri-state area as a b-boy, and has showcased his popping skills on stage alongside hip hop legend KRS-ONE. Napalm is a true asset to hip hop, breakbeat, and drum n' bass culture, his improv performance and defining character leave him a step above the rest.
