GONNA KEEP THIS SHORT AND SWEET!!!
let’s start at the end of 2001…
KLEVER & CRAZE wanted to put out a scratch CD, showing the world their production skills and some cutt’s! At the time, there weren’t really many scratch CDs out. Of course, there were countless kids cutting over beats and putting them out… but that’s all they were, practice tapes.
What WE wanted to do is produce an adventure for the listener.
We where mainly influenced by two tapes: one Q-Bert had made back in 94′ called Demolition Pumpkin Squeeze Musik and, around the end of 2000, there was this dude from LA, who went by ALIAS, that put out another pretty inspirational tape.
I went down and stayed with Craze, in Miami, for about a week’s time. We started the project on his ADAT and got about 20 Mins worth done before I had to go! Right around the time I left, he upgraded to Logic. A couple months passed before I ended back up at Craze’s. This time, the work flow was a lot better because of the tracking format. It took us a while to complete cuz of our touring schedules, but at the end of 2002 we finally finished the tape…
Enjoy!

Outstanding style/skillz. I’ll vever understand why Klever got bored with scratching. You’re wasting your talents man. Whatever, thanks for putting your album online for free.
Not enough love on here for this. There is no better scratch album. You guys are so dope it bothers me some nights. Klever: nothing but love for you bud. Really great to meet you in Tally. Hope to see you both in the future, watch out for me on the scene.
