That's dope earwaxmelter, I'm in a grindcore band called Gore Wax.. although we're on a bit of a (possibly permanent?) hiatus.


I came up with Anti-Gravity Epidemic for an old grindcore band I was in. We came up with 5 songs, played a couple of shows, then called it quits. So, I kept the name for myself, AGE for short. It's somewhat of an ode to weed, space, time, hallucinations.. music, life.

I used to call myself Spacey Spades because my last name is Spaedy and I also space out. After Spacey Spades I went by Ill Collins (Collins is my first name and Ill Collins sounds like Phil Collins :lol: ). After that it was King Kolnz for a while. Then I came up with Chopperman because I chop samples to fly like a chopper (helicopter). I'm a fan of superhero mythology and as a kid I looked at my favorite beat makers as superheroes. I didn't understand how beats were made so it seemed like magic. SP stands for Super Powers in my book!
Great topic Kel.

I've had 2 names, one name is constantly in flux.

The first was Dyslexic DJ. The reason wasn't because I actually have dyslexia, it was because my initials are JD. So in order to get around the fact I dont' actually DJ, I thought it would be clever spin on the whole triangle of all that info. I still, to this day, put in DIS for my arcade initials in high scores. ;) Then if someone asks, I just say "I just DISsed all the scores below me."

hseiken is a longer story. Originally, I was using internet handle Black Lung (X-Files? Anyone? And yes, I do smoke like a chimney) but it started getting too popular so I was looking for something that no one else would possibly use and I was watching Fatal Fury movie and the 'super technique' was Hakkyokku Seiken (not even sure I spelled it right, tbh). Well, I assumed that spelled in english based on it's pronunciation in the english dub it was hakyoku seiken. My friend who's a Japanese major asked if I knew what it meant. I told him I got it from Fatal Fury and it has something to do with hungry wolf. He said "Well, based on the way you spelled it in English, it's pronunciation is more like *says it a different way* and translates literally into Political Catastrophe." I thought this was even COOLER! However, no one could pronounce all that shit. So I shortened it to hseiken, which doesn't even look japanese but looks chinese. And even then people don't get it right on the first try 95% of the time (pronounced H-SAY-KEN) so finally I just shortened it to the literally ungoogable HS. And normally if someone askes me what HS stands for, I tell them it means whatever they want. High School, Hot Sex, Hundred Slaps, whatever you want because it's easier to say that than explain the whole story of Political Catastrophe mispelling of japanese word into english.

*whew*!

So you'll see me around the webs as hseiken, hakyoku, HS and my youtube channel is Heavy Systems. I had an idea for awhile to just keep putting out tapes as different acronyms for HS. Probably will just stick with HS, though. :)

Nice. If you go back to your HS acronym tape titles here's a few suggestions... Ham Sandwich, Hello Stinky, Hip Songs, High Score, Hey Sucka!, Hole Stick, Happy Sadness, Huge Skunk, Hat Sale, House Shoes, Hulk Sounds, Heart Shocker, Hard Sanity, Holy Shit... If you would like to hear more let me know. :D

Post by Ill Green »

ILL GREEN was a name of an album I made coming out of dengue, which was really deadly during the outbreak, (now, its like catching the flu). I used to go by the name Murky Waters, which was a metaphor for "dingy flows". Anyway, I went out selling these CDs and everyone that bought or listened to it called me ill green. I was constantly correcting people saying that my name is Murky Waters but the album is called Ill Green and just went with the flow.

I'm also ILL GREEN because I've been the sick child. Had every sickness. I have to spit flem every other day and mucous runs out my nose almost everyday. Always blowing my brains out. Its controlled for a month or two but then I'm ill again.

My name is Devoye. Naturally it sounds like Daboy..... So theboydevoye was the product. I want a better name for my hip hop productions that's less playful
Tried some New Styles with this beat tape. I dont wanna sound the same as others but take that little bit of influence.
