TOMC3 is the up and coming producer based out of San Francisco, CA. Those that are unfamiliar with TomC3 might recognize his first project for Threshold Recordings entitled: Dopestyle 1231. The album was released in 2004 and featured such guests as label mate Motion Man, Kool Keith, Del tha Funkee Homosapien and Vast Aire from Cannibal Ox. The album was not only applauded for it's well selected guests, but also for its sonic darkness and lo-fi beats created by TomC3. XLR8R magazine has labeled TomC3's production as - "Soncially dark and murky", Elemental magazine proclaims - " Tight production with moody, eerie soundscapes evoking memories of classic Gravediggaz". Possessing a keen ear for distinct sounds to go along with chopping and looping techniques, TomC3 is able to put together a "vivd' album that is like hearing the score to your favorite "B" horror movie soundtrack. On his latest release entitled - PROJECT POLAROID - the Original Soundtrack Recording , we find the San Francisco based producer working with Bronx legend, KOOL KEITH, on what has been described as a Lo-Fi "Dirty Harry meets Star Trek ". Along with guest collaborations from Prince Po (Organized Konfusion), Motion Man , Jihad the Ruffneck (Third Sight), this album is guaranteed to knock you of your rocker. Kool Keith brings his extra terrerstrial styles and meshes them with TOMC3's dusty tracks. The end result is a 14 track Lo-Fi classic. Those that love their music "dusty" will love this album, And as the famous saying goes... " Everything is full blast Android" .....
