**************************About The Album**************************

This was the 1st of my solo releases; released sometime in early 2008.

The project was envisioned to be like a movie/film, so it is best listened to as a whole; there are deleted scenes also.

The EP tells a story, through the use of instrumentals & vocal snippets from films (also a cameo from UK rapper Persona Bars), of a day in the life of a guy- from him waking up, dealing with the stresses of everyday working life, to him coming back home.
The story is adaptable, in the sense that it could be the story of a guy who goes to work in an office or a road guy.

I've always wanted the EP to be made into a real short film, with these songs as the backdrop.

(The Short Film Series is the collection of EP's that try to tell a story)


I got a good response when it was 1st released, so I'm putting it back out for people who never heard it.

******************************About V-Man******************************

I'm a producer who, for the most part, likes to adopt the traditional side of hip-hop production involving sampling, trying to creatively sample from a variety of sound sources to make musical soundscapes. When sampling is not incorporated, I still try to make my tracks have that sampled aesthetic and sound.

Some of my favourite producers include Pete Rock, The Rza, J Dilla, Dj Premier, The Bomb Squad, Madlib, Timbaland, Kev Brown, Just Blaze, Harry Love, 9th Wonder, Ayatollah, Dangermouse and The Neptunes as well as composers such as John Barry, Bacharach, Quincy Jones, Ennio Morricone & artists like Zappa, Nkengas, Oriental Brothers International, Antony & The Johnsons, Kate Bush, Rick Wakeman & Yes for their use of concepts....

I like to have the dirty- basement sound of RZA or Madlib but also the sonic cleanness of Dilla or Just Blaze.
