RELEASE DATE

Cappablack is a duo comprised of
Illeven
(programming) and
Hashim B.
(programming & scratching). Influenced by the raw hip-hop sound of groups such as
Mobb Deep
, Cappablack released their debut album
The State of the Night
in 1997 from Soup-Disk, which combined experimental beats and noir soundscapes. This album became a classic instrumental album in the Japanese hip-hop scene. Their second 12"
The Economics
EP was discovered by
Pole
and they became the first Japanese group to contribute tracks to the ~scape compilations
Staedtizism 3
,
Staedtizism 4
and
But Then Again
. Comparable in sound to artists such as
Prefuse 73
,
Dabrye
and
Danger Mouse
who mix electronica with hip-hop, and also succeeding in the line of Japanese instrumental hip-hop artists such as
DJ Krush
,
Facades & Skeletons
is a deep album that breaks the boundaries between numerous musical genres. The album features vocals by underground US West coast MC
Awol One
, and the remarkable rhyming skills of up-and-coming Japanese rapper
Emirp
. This album is filled with riveting, dense soundscapes and appeals to both electronica and hip-hop fans.
