Bisc1 - Man vs. Nature

Queens-based emcee and graphic artist Bisc1 will be releasing his first full length album, When Electric Nights Fall, this spring on March 11, 2008 via the Brooklyn-based indie hip-hop label, Embedded Music.

Bisc1 recorded the majority of WENF in the evening hours, not only because of the demands of his day job as a graphic artist but also because this is when his creativity thrives. Nighttime is a time when most of us relax and try to make sense of our day, with all our successes, failures, conflicts, celebrations, doubts, and stresses.  With When Electric Nights Fall, Bisc1 captures these emotions we all share with a blatant sense of urgency. Just as a train takes passengers on a ride from borough to borough with varying landscapes, WENF brings listeners on a nighttime ride through the realms of our psyche. The album ventures from our feelings of highs and lows in “Parallels,” being thankful for getting though another day in “Pandemonium,” the beauty of having loved ones in “Fire and Ice” and “Unconditional,” the perverse passion of pursuing our vices in “Strange Love,” and dreams, illusions, and escape from daily routine, in  “Great Escape.”   WENF is a glimpse into Bisc1’s personal journey but he deftly touches on emotions we’ve all experienced in our lives at one point of another.
