Ceschi - The One Man Band Broke Up CD

New Haven songwriter/multi-instrumentalist/rapper Ceschi Ramos(pronounced chess-key) and Berlin producer DJ Scientist initially connected around 2005 over a mutual adoration of rare 60's/70's Psychedelic, Prog and Folk Rock as well as 90's Hip Hop. On their first record together, The One Man Band Broke Up, both gentlemen evoke their influences creating a completely original sounding, melodic, dark and unabashedly progressive Hip Hop concept album. Based around the ever revisited topic of the rise and fall of a musician, in this case one named Julius and The Bearded Saviour, "The One Man Band Broke Up" is as much about Ceschi's own fear of failure as it is about personal experiences in a dog eat dog music industry. As Ceschi's voice moves from meticulous almost mathematical rhythms to aggressive nearly punk howling to scat like rhymes, Scientist layers epic montages of samples, dynamic drums, along with chopped live instruments to compliment the diversity of styles.
