Critically acclaimed Boston based rapper-producer-DJ-rap historian Edan Portnoy made a dent on the underground hip-hop scene with the twelve-inch Sing it Shitface. The album Architecture followed shortly after, but it wasn't until his first release on Lewis Recordings that Edan garnered interest from both rock and hip-hop circles first in the UK then later, in his native US.

Primitive Plus introduced Edan's unique and irreverent take on hip-hop's past while his next album Beauty and the Beat saw him experiment with 60's psychedelia. Both albums were showered with praise, cementing Edan's reputation as one of the most daring and adventurous artists in modern day hip-hop.

PRESS:

"A typically spaced out lyrical journey. Ninety-nine percent better than the competition" - Dazed And Confused

"Perhaps the greatest US hip-hop album you'll hear in 2005" - DJ

"This is a record that exults in the joy of musical creation. It should prove impossible not to love" - The Times

"Edan's genius is schizophrenic. 'Beauty and The Beat' should make him a star" - Mojo

"Instead of bleating about how rap was better 'back in the day', Edan goes and does something constructive about improving it" - Metro

"A bewitching lesson in underground hip-hop production" - Hip-Hop Connection

"Edan has a seemingly bottomless musical curiosity... he unites old school hip-hop's aesthetics with a previous generation's sense of grooviness" - The Washington Post
