Polyphonic the Verbose

Label: Audio 8
Genre: Experimental, Hip Hop

Polyphonic isn't just a swell sounding stage name, it really gets at the complexity of Will Freyman's production. He weaves live instruments and bizarre samples into intricate patterns no doubt drawing from his diverse musical background (classical European piano, jazz trombone, Indonesian gamelan music, medieval European choral music — you name it, he's played it). The net result is what a lazy record clerk might file under "dub" for its spacey vibe and stilted gait, but there's more to it than that. So much more, in fact, that intrepid MCs like Nico B, Serengeti, and Psalm One lined up to add their rhymes to Polyphonic's solo debut, Abstract Data Ark.
