The Procussions

Underground rap group the Procussions shaped in Colorado Springs, Colorado, in 1998. The initial lineup contains Mr. J. Medeiros, Stro Elliot (aka Stro the 89th Essential), Resonant (aka Rez), Qq, and Vise Versa. In early stages, Qq still left the group after he collapsed throughout a functionality and was identified as having multiple sclerosis. After the group obtained traction using the singles “ALL OF THAT IT REQUIRES” and “Keep Her By itself,” aswell as high-profile starting slots for famous brands Run-D.M.C. and Common, they transferred to LA. Vise Versa still left shortly thereafter to create Deux Process. The rest of the trio released the initial Procussions album, …Seeing that Iron Sharpens Iron, in the Basementalism label in 2003. Up FOREVER, a session documented with the Audio Suppliers’ Jason Abilities, implemented on Japan’s 3D in 2004. They agreed upon using the rejuvenated Rawkus label for 2006’s 5 Sparrows for 2 Cents. Rez eventually departed to focus on visual and Web site design, while Medeiros released his very own Of Gods and Young ladies (2007). The group divide in 2008, but Mr. J. and Stro continued to be active and continuing to utilize each other, as noticed on Medeiros’ Close friends Foes Apples Apples (2009), Saudade (2011), as well as the A-side “Pale Blue Dot” (2012). In 2012, Medeiros and Stro reunited as the Procussions for the present in Colorado and recorded an record with support from an effective Indiegogo campaign. The next April, the recording was released towards the duo’s monetary followers, while a five-track teaser EP was wanted to everyone. Five months later on, the entire self-released recording was open to everyone.
