The world of Hip-Hop has come alive with music that is here to make a mark on
the hearts and minds of the progressive listeners. On one hand, Hip-Hop music
makers Ridwan ‘onBeats’ and Hasan ‘Bil Basmala’ join forces to compose the
eerily ecstatic and on the other, two veteran producers Rob Bass (Fka:Fanatik)
and Hasan Robinson (Fka: Autolect) collaborate on their debut album “Monoverse”
(2010) to create music that treads the domain of the unexplored. But
that’s not all. Adding to the already mounting excitement is the news that the
Mononauts are back in the studio working on their new album that may hit the
racks anytime between late 2013 and early 2014.
The new creations of Ridwan and Hasan seek to create a musical territory
where the electric psychedelic Space Rock influenced beats and backgrounds of
onBeats meet the abstract, enlightened and sub-conscious lyrics of Bil Basmala.
As they break free from the defined structures of the 1 and ah 2 they contribute
to the conception of something that is distinct in its identity and yet exhibits both
the creators’ musical abilities. Mononauts are creating a new fusion of the energetic
and the experimental. Best suited for headphone science, these industry
darling boys continue to be the pioneers of new possibilities for Hip-Hop.
