   About Definition
     Definition is a two man hip hop and electronica project based in Tucson, Arizona. Combining both original loop-driven samples and beats, they weave an intricate gossamer of auditory ecstasy; much like that of an acid-induced spiderweb (Acid Pro 6.0, that is). Focusing on "less hip, more hop," they bring more than just biscuits and gravy to the hip hop cultural dinner table. Despite their affinity for bumps, jams, "ill-nastyz," freshness, and sick grooves, they often get down to a chill melody encompassing flavorful textures of the most incandescent nature -- like that of a sojourn to the fruitful waterfall valleys of one's own mind.
     In their free time, Chip and Scott (the aforementioned duo), enjoy delirium and tremors caused by alcohol withdrawal and broken hearts, aiding to their already shaky psyches. When they do actually find the time to leave their humble studio-abode, Chip enjoys sailing and smooth jazz whilst Scott fancies dinosaurs and various loud, percussive effects.
     Their breakout EP, titled In the Company of Owls, showcases both their love for raptorial birds and their strange, borderline inappropriate obsession with simian aestheticism. Buy it -- and you too, can be one of the few, the proud, the Definition.
     As much as they hate to talk about themselves in third person, they were thoroughly entertained by writing this.

thanks bro. the link works perfectly now! im so freaking glad that i can personally say that i have your EP on my iPod. thanks so much...

i have a small question however. what is a good site (in your opinion) that i could post my songs for people to download for free? (how did you get it so people could go to a site and download your album?)

thanks for everything!

Aug 14 2008 5:02 PM

Hahah yeah dude, of course I knew you had a new track up. It definitely made the rounds around here (too many rounds in a row?), and I definitely dig it. Awesome stuff especially the latter half.

I'm personally just pumped you kept Strange Times up. Currently my favorite track, outside of hearing the brand new one of course.

Keep up the awesome work, seriously. I'll be thoroughly disappointed if I don't get more Definition.

yah i had mine out long ago. the only good thing about it when i had mine out was i got free ice cream.

i dont think my bands gonna last. the guy i've been working with doesnt really help out too much with the musical part (99% its all me) so its a lot of work for me... i am however, thinking about doing a small solo project. i'll let you know more about that soon.

happy summer vacation!
