M.U.T.T.'s head with headphones on

BIO

Music Used To Transcend straddles the space between experimental electronic music and left field hip-hop production. With ambient passages, cinematic movements, he creates futuristic soundscapes constructed from elements of industrial, trip-hop and shoegaze. A love for movie scores and videogame soundtracks inspires grandeur and tension in his instrumentation. Plus his Ghanaian heritage routinely makes an appearance in the rhythms. Besides being a producer, he is also a songwriter and vocalist, penning rhymes and bending his voice around the groove Starting in the Chicago music scene, he has been in several bands and performed at major Chicago venues with a variety of dope local talent such as Rich Jones, Jamila Woods, MC Tree, ANG13 and Jyroscope. But now he presents himself to you as this unique solo act, coming to take you on an epic ride into new realms.
