Information/Write-up
Released September 9, 1995
Coming str8 outta Vancouver, Canada Terror T and The Beat Assassinator had already previously released 2 cassettes in the 1990s, this was the first (and only) on CD by Noizi Records. DJ Soundwar champion and the first female to release a rap album in Canada west of the Rockies, Terror T was pioneering, but more importantly a hardcore rhyme master. The Beat Assassinator chopped up drums, instruments and tha funk to create the super solid backdrop. Enjoy!
All of these tracks were created with an old school Casio FZ-1 sampler, Alesis MMT-8 sequencer, a Fostex G-16s reel-to-reel machine and mixed on a Studiomaster Series III 24 channel console (if memory serves). Additional sounds - wah-wah guitar, bass, Heathkit tone generator(!), percussion - were also sparingly applied, and mixes were recorded to a Casio DA-7 DAT tape machine. The simple days!
