Thavius Beck (Adlib) Dialogue

This multi-talented Los Angeles artist spent most of 2000 through 2010 working on projects to advance the career of others, including playing bass and producing for Saul Williams. Thavius Beck also stayed busy remixing tracks for like-minded artists such as Nine Inch Nails, Busdriver, and Daedelus. But Dialogue represents Beck’s return to the booth as he raps on more songs on here than he had in the previous decade. And he makes sure it’s every bit as apocalyptic as his previous work -- something like Aesop Rock meets Trent Reznor with a hint of ass-shaking drums and synthesizers thrown in.
