Why limit yourself to subculture and scenes. Imagine no phonetic laws. Call him what you want spoken word artist, sound scientist, indie emcee. Skinfiltr8r is a virtuoso vocalist layering his voice with pedals (boss loopstation)adding coincidental sounds (hitting a shoe on the mic as bassdrum). Anything genre goes from soundscape to hip hop, from emo to jazz. Rooted in melancholy, improvisation and rhythm. Since the pedals everything he has ever done comes together in diverse but unique sculptures of sound. Although layering voices and effects enables Skinfiltr8r to be independent now, he occasionally improvises with a dj, guitarist or band.
