Epsilon Project - Inspiration
Artist: Epsilon Project
Producer: Kev Brown
Album: Audacity
Label: EP Sound
It goes without saying that anyone hoping to make a living through music, art, writing or any creative craft must have a steady source of Inspiration. While I find that a few (dozen) cups of black coffee rarely fail to get the gears spinning, readers in search of some deeper insights into what lies behind the creative process can find what they’re craving on the latest single and first Booth feature from Oxnard, California crew Project Epsilon. Based around the nostalgically lo-fi but anthemically catchy keyboard-sampled boardwork of Kev Brown, the cut finds the West Coast hopefuls exploring the many things that keep them on their grind, from their gratitude to fans, friends and family to their religious beliefs and memories of past struggles – and, not least, their enduring love for the music itself. With the winning combination of positive-minded rhymes and old-school vibes, this track will undoubtedly earn Epsilon Project fans among our resident underground heads. If you fall into that category, you can find more where this came from on their Audacity LP, released May 25, and out now in stores and online.

Some groups send us tracks that make us think "Man, we need to feature this record." Other groups send us records that make us think "Man, we need to feature this group." Epsilon Project falls into the latter category. Dope dope hip hop.

The beat is catchy like a car cruise, and these guys carve up on it with some sweet lava-lamp flow :p Seriously though, this is dope... gonna have it on repeat for a long while...

What's not to like about this? Seamless Bars x Dope Cuts x Catchy Chorus x Upbeat Production x Cool Video. Anyone know where I can get that Green shirt? 5 Stars. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IBYaEpOOk1U&feature=player_embedded

Someone needs to do a medley of all the "flipping through radio/tv stations" intros. Pharcyde alone has a couple.
This is that real, old school underground hip-hop. And by "underground", I mean people making hip-hop for the love of hip-hop. Fittingly, I'm now inspired to love this culture once again. More from Epsilon please.

These guys are from Oxnard? I’ve never even heard of these dudes before but I love this first track, real hip-hop. I’m definitely looking forward to their next features.

When you have a group this big it is very hard to tell who is who, but I have to say, they all did a great job with this one. Verses > Hook > Production.

Production is ok, but not my type of beat. The rapping on this is good though.

Good verses all around with tight flows to boot. I really admire this instrumental. Despite it's simplistic nature, its highly effective and induces a slow head nod.

Damn, damn, damn. How did I somehow skip this before? Thank you, Booth, for constantly feeding us a balanced diet of big names along with crews like Epsilon. This is what Hip-Hop is about. Matter of fact I'm feeling nostalgic about high school when I would sit with my ears glued to The Wake Up Show every Saturday night after hoop practice to hear dope tracks like this, hah. Audacity review soon?

CLASSIC. I ended up buying the album 'Audacity' and it is a pretty good project. Tracks like 'Sleeping Giant', 'Audacity of Dope' and 'In God We Trust' are all pure Hip-Hop at its best.
