I'm that dapper fellow by the name of EngLeburt, and I create the type of beats that make your eardrums hurt. Been in love with hip-hop ever since I peeped the Beastie Boys back in 2nd grade. Since then I was in a funk band called Universal Grooves, an experimental acoustic band called Carefully Out of Place, a Rap-Core band called soundadvice. Now days I make beats, for myself and others. Me and my cat, Mo-Vega$ form olive lounge, electro-lounge hop at its finest.Band/artist history
Featured several times in The Alestle, SIUE's newspaper, while in Universal Grooves. Told by a local patron at the Soulard Market that I was the next Frank Zappa, while playing a show in Carefully Out of Place. Mobbed by hundreds of adoring fans at a couple solo stints in Townsville and Sydney Australia. My band soundadvice was featured in HM, a global publication, and had a track featured on the 'Best of' CD that comes with every magazine. We were offered a deal to sign with Mercy Street records, but that fell through when I left the band. Since I have been doing my own tracks, I constantly reached the top 10 on the Breakbeat charts, and Downtempo charts on MP3, and was the #1 Hip-Hop and Electronic artist in St. Louis according to number of downloads on MP3. Outside of my instrumental albums, and tracks for olive lounge, I am currently working on tracks for Boris of The Frozen Food Section, iLL Syntax and NapStarr. I'm also scoring an indie film called Dark Garden.Have you performed in front of an audience?Yeah, as EngLebuRt I've played at Mississippi Nights, Hi-Pointe, Atomic Cowboy, and Red Sea. Best show to me was at Atomic Cowboy, I brought out the miniKorg for that one.
