"ORB is dope, the full package for an emcee.... An emcee that is conscious, humble, and thoughtful is a nice break from the norm. Orb shows that he has an excellent knowledge of hip-hop music, that he is a product of the sound--and that he wants to push that sound...." LK1 (Okayplayer.com)

BeaconSkillz is the home base for the debut solo LP for Orbitron a.k.a. Orb from the world famous crews SoulShifters and Circle of Fire. Already recognized as a world class b-boy, Orb is now making a name for himself as a dope emcee. Uniting with Alonzo on production and DJ Tecumseh on the wheels, Orb has taken the next big step in his career releasing his debut solo LP, B-Boy Universal.
Since dropping his B-Boy Universal LP, Orbitron has grown a reputation as one of Seattle's most outstanding Hip-Hop performers blazing the stage with the same energy he's brought to countless dance floors. Some of his highlight performances include opening for the Coup at the sold-out Nectar Lounge in Seattle's Fremont neighborhood and rockin' the Mighty 4 at the University of Washington. Orbitron also performed at the Zulu Jam as part of Seattle's Northwest Folklife Festival and represented at the Renegades Crew 25th Anniversary jam in San Francisco, California.
Orbitron has also enjoyed strong support from hundreds of college radio DJ's across the country including Mike Nardone at KXLU Los Angeles and DJ B-Mello at KEXP Seattle. In early June, Orbitron climbed to 2 on the RapAttack DJ's Top 30 chart and 3 on the Rap Network Record Breakers top 30 chart with his first single entitled "Freedom Song" featuring Geologic from the Blue Scholars.
Critics have praised the B-Boy Universal LP including Okayplayer.com, arguably the most respected Hip Hop website, awarding Orbitron 4/5 Questies. Larry Mizell Jr., columnist for The Stranger wrote, "Abstract, optimistic and spiritual, Orbitron evokes the (up)lifted vibe of Fresh Coast underground..." Will Johnsen from the Seattle PI proclaims, "...throw any track from this album on at the next park jam..." Mike Nardone, the legendary Los Angeles DJ and underground Hip-Hop taste-maker and host of KXLU's We Came From Beyond, celebrated the arrival Orbitron's B-Boy Universal LP proclaiming, "Go Get It... Fantastic Record! (4/6/08)"
Orbitron's music has begun to reach international recognition as evidenced by the recent addition of his music as the exclusive soundtrack for the R-16 Korea website (www.r16korea.com). The R-16 is Korea's premier B-Boy/Hip Hop event that attracts thousands of B-Boys, Hip Hop artists and promoters from all over the world.
Look for Orbitron to continue pushing his independently released LP B-Boy Universal in 2008. There are no boundaries when you speak the international language that is Hip-Hop, so look for Orbitron in your town, city and throughout the world.
