Non Phixion
Before you start reading this bio, think about the words Non Phixion. Then think about the most real, bang you in the head with a sledgehammer-type moment you’ve ever experienced. Something that either hurt you or opened your eyes to reality. That’s what Non Phixion are about. Read on… The year was 1995. Somewhere in Brooklyn, NY, after years of spitting rhymes solo and crossing each others paths, four former advisaries buried the hatchet. They combined their talents and made history. ILL BILL, Goretex, Sabac and DJ Eclipse formed Non Phixion and jumped directly in the studio. Within six months, they released their debut single, “Legacy” b/w “No Tommorow”, followed by an onslaught of critically acclaimed 12″ singles that to date have sold over 200,000 copies combined. From it’s earliest stages, the group possessed it’s own unique style that is best distilled to “b-boy gangster meets futuristic world of apocalypse”. A complex blend of opposites is at the core of the Non Phixion sound. Not since Wu Tang’s heyday has hip-hop witnessed such a display of unity and strength. Non Phixion has three distinct flows, three different voices and three different types of lyrical content, yet they all compliment each other in an impressive and powerful way. After 2 years signed to Geffen Records yielded nothing, Non Phixion continued releasing music independently and began touring the world on their own. They’ve performed in all of NYC’s major venues and done shows everywhere. Some of the places that have witnessed Non Phixion live include Los Angeles, Boston, San Francisco, Seattle, Chicago, Las Vegas, Detroit, Philly, Miami, San Diego, Atlanta, Washington D.C., Toronto, Amsterdam, London, Barcelona, Madrid, Athens, Reykjavik, Oslo, Milan, Zurich, Geneva, Copenhagen and Berlin. Some of the groups they have shared the stage with include Gangstarr, Run DMC, Wu Tang Clan, Rage Against The Machine, Mos Def, Hazen St., Ludacris, Blackmoon, Pharoahe Monch, Big Pun and Fat Joe, Cypress Hill, Necro, Q-Unique, The Beatnuts, Jurassic 5, Lordz Of Brooklyn, Dead Prez & the Roots. Non Phixion have earned themselves a dedicated fanbase across the United States, Europe and Japan. April 23, 2002: After solidifying a world-wide cult following and releasing countless 12″ singles over the past 9 years, Uncle Howie Records finally released Non Phixion’s highly anticipated debut LP, “The Future Is Now”. Along with the assistance of legendary producers DJ Premier, Pete Rock and Large Professor, “The Future Is Now” features guest appearances from Beatnuts, MF Doom and the nefarious Necro. In Addition, rockers Christian Olde Wolbers & Raymond Herrera from Fear Factory and Deftones guitarist Steph Carpenter get down as well. Since it’s release, the album has sound-scanned over 50,000 units in the US, and sold over 100,000 units worldwide. As all 3 emcees in Non Phixion release solo albums thru Necro’s Psycho+Logical Records, and begin collecting beats for “Nuclear Truth”, their upcoming sophomore LP, Uncle Howie Records releases “The Green CD/DVD”. Based on a promotional mix tape that Non Phixion recorded a few years prior to releasing their debut album “The Future Is Now”, The Green CD consists of new and unreleased tracks as well as some older singles, demos and freestyles. 25 joints in all!
