Behind the scenes in Burke, VA - November 23, 1994

Just a bunch of the original kids being dope. This room is what later would become Studio A of Depth Charge Recording. This session was for Chaz the Natural's joint, "Heavens to Merkatroid." People in this video: Chaz the Natural, Props the Optical (aka ,) , Ill-Legit (aka ,) and . In those days, we tracked our music to a four-track Fostex tape machine. Tracks one and two were for the stereo music, tracks three and four were for vocals, scratches etc. Wise would then mix everthing to DAT tape. The walls are covered with carpet because we didn't have much of a budget for sound treatment. But there was a carpet store across the street and they would let us have their discontinued samples and installation leftovers. While not ideal, it served as decent sound absorption to help deaden the room.

Team Demolition - The Demolition Orange Tape, features choice cuts from the Lower Life Forms, Props the Optical, Chaz the Natural and Kreative Natives. Originally released in March 1995 at the Howard Hip Hop Conference, only 300 cassettes were ever produced. The album has been remastered and is available on all streaming services NOVEMBER 4TH and includes two bonus tracks. Please check it out!
