MC Frontalot:DaddyD writes: "Nerds and such have usually been great fans of music. Musicians haven't always been such great fans of nerds. Some styles lend themselves readily to the nerd lifestyle, while others remain rather hostile. Punk worked well. Think Devo. Or the Adolescents. But Hip Hop? Yes indeed. Thanks to MC Frontalot. Frontalot's got it. Whatever it may be. He is probably the only person on the planet rapping about Nigerian E-Mail scams, Little Red Riding Hood and FTP servers. I think that just about says it all. Of course, some of you may be able to appreciate that he uses the Knoppix start sequence as a sample. You know that's a first. Go listen, and if you can't decide which track to check, I would suggest Nerdcore Hip Hop, Indier Than Thou, Crime Spree or Braggadocio as some potential starting points. I just downed them all. It was easier." Link

Our mission is conducted everywhere, but first and foremost in culture-archeological digs into the seats (and pockets) of ideology and entertainment. monochrom has existed in this (and almost every other) form since 1993.
