Biography
KnowSleep is the collaboration of Bay Area whompsters Knowa KnowOne and Sleepyhead. The two came together in the early millennium via conscious hip hop collaborations and events between Maryland and North Carolina.
The sound is psychedelic, tribal, hip hop and reggae all mashed into something completely unique. Diverse influences include visionary art, indigenous rhythm, Euro Crunk and heavy synthesizer bass.
Self-titled album KnowSleep is a heavy, spritual and electo-laiden album, serious in mood and devoted to it's message. Featuring lyrical seamstress Taylor MaidenSpace's eloquent and chilling spoken word, themes range through stoic manifestation, compassion, activism and war. Highlights include vocal Bay area talent Seazuns, dj favorite "T-Street" and the sidewinding mid-tempo house smash "Flambat".
