Psyche Origami's The Standard (2005) was recently names one of Atlanta's Top 25 albums of the decade by the writers at Creative Loafing. This is an amazing honor considering the level of talent in the rest of the list including Outkast, T.I., Gnarls Barkley, Prefuse 73, and Black Lips. This is yet another step in the right direction setting the stage for our upcoming release, Flagship, which is being mixed right now. The future looks bright. .



Psyche Origami Bio, 4 Turntables, 1 Mic – State of PO, 2009



4 Turntables: 1 Mic. A State-Of-The-Art Spin on the Foundations of

Hip-hop. Dubbed "head-change music," Psyche Origami's material walks

the thin line between "conscious" music and "party" music, with a live

show that brings the content of the records to an even higher level.



The three 12" singles cut from "Is Ellipsis," the first Psyche O full

length, enjoyed heavy rotation on college radio nationwide and were a

favorite of New York's SURE and California's Heavyweights record

pools. The singles were also a top seller in the US and Japan through

TRC Distribution. In 2004-05, PO toured 36 US markets. Due in large

part to the exposure gained through this aggressive tour schedule,

"Is Ellipsis" was picked up by RedEye Distribution and is available in

Virgin Megastores, Borders Books and Music, Best Buy and an assortment

of independent stores nationwide, as well as online through Amazon.com

, I-Tunes, and sandboxautomatic.com.



Sharing the stage with such heavyweights as Jurassic Five, Talib

Kweli, and Ludacris, Psyche O has started to make itself known for

entertaining shows that bring back the feel of the 'Golden Age' from

which it was spawn. This Atlanta bred act has also been fortunate

enough to have music featured on Cartoon Network's Adult Swim

programming as well as various MTV and VH1 reality TV shows!



"Get Gassed Up" is the second single to be released from the ambitious

PO sophomore effort, "The Standard": a thematic album that uses a

metaphorical gas station as a backdrop to convey thoughts centered

around the idea that if the body is a vehicle, what would the gas

station sound like that refueled it. "The Standard" is a mostly

lighthearted Hip-hop exploration of the human condition and of the

realities we create, and touches on themes such as convenience,

motivation, and service. 'The Standard' reached 1 on the CMJ Music

charts and held a top ten position for over 6 weeks. The 'Get Gassed

Up' single was picked up by Fat Beats Distribution in August of 2006.



After 'The Standard', Psyche Origami plans on extending its creative

range with a project that is less thematic, but just as powerful in

message and scope. "The idea is to keep the listeners on their toes.

Our fans are a demanding bunch, and each time we raise the bar to

satisy our previous fans as well as continuing to rope in new ones",

says Mr. Wyzard, emcee/producer of Psyche Origami. With that said,

look out for a new Psyche Origami album in 2009. Be sure to check www.psycheorigami.com for updates!
