PSYCHOKINETICS SEVEN LEAGUE BOOTS
Release Date: August, 2005
Psychokinetics offer the ultimate triple threat: brilliant writing, infectious beats, and scintillating performance. West Coast Performer Magazine (Cover Story: November 2004)
Get ready to step inside the world of Psychokinetics, where the beats are bumpin, the rhymes are flowin, and the energy is always live! Seven League Boots is the culmination of Celsius 7 (MC), Spider (MC), Denizen (DJ/Producer), and The Vapor Childs (Producer/Engineer) blood, sweat, tears, and most of all heart for the past two years. Rising out of the Bay Area, this promising group, which started in 95 has earned many prestigious accolades including a John Lennon Songwriting Award and most recently the Musicians Atlas Independent Music Finalist Award for best hip hop artists.
On their latest album, Seven League Boots the four man crew eases off of the experimentation from their debut and focuses more on the boom bap bangin hip-hop that walks the fine line between underground and accessible. By blending the introspective and lyrical tracks like Departure and Badlands with the club friendly anthem Disky Refund (Featuring Raashan Ahmad of Crown City Rockers) and the dancehall driven Bigtime (Featuring Zion I), Psychokinetics will successfully garner a larger following throughout the hip hop community and beyond. This album never lets up for a moment with the soulful strut of Caracas Breeze, (Featuring Omega of Blackalicious) and the comedic wordplay of Done, which rounds out this truly diverse and distinct album.
Not only does Psychokinetics deliver in the studio, but for anyone whos had the opportunity to see them live, they know how energetic, engaging, and infectious these cats can be on stage. These qualities have helped them build a strong fan base from Japan to Denver to Hawaii, and of course all the way back to the beautiful Bay, where theyve shared the stage with such hip-hop luminaries including KRS-One, Biz Markee, DJ Premier, Black Sheep, Digital Underground, Kool Keith, and more.
Watch out for these breakthrough artists as they extensively tour in support of this album, and keep an eye out for their narrative lounge album due out in 2006.

Circuit breakers are likely to switch off when Psychokinetics are in the building. High-octane lyrical energy backed by up-tempo party grooves keep power companies scrambling while the eclectic Bay Area hip hop crew gets busy. MCs Spidey and Celsius turn up the voltage by scattering positive punctual rhymes while DJ Denizen lets the sparks fly behind the turntables. It is this energy that has earned them comparisons to OutKast and Common, and their superb writing skills that have earned them a John Lennon Songwriting Award and a Finalist Spot in The Independent Music Awards. These guys are the real deal; the complete package. Keeping Hip hop alive and elevating the art and culture. All music available on iTunes and other fine digital retaliers. Get ready to be moved.
