简介
As a full-time middle school teacher and student in a Master’s program, Dix found his creative output on a circumstantial hiatus. After over a year of not writing or recording, the rapper began using the little free-time he had to make music again, under the condition that the process had to be fun. Stealing songs from his friend Ed Curtiss’s previously released instrumental album Underwrought Works, Dix invited his friends to his basement. The only rule: You can’t leave until a song is done. The result is Underwrought (Re)Works, a redux project featuring members from Portland folk bands Fruition and Horsefeathers as well as rappers from the NW crew Proper Knocks and the MW crew Neon Autumn. With the original bleak and rickety production combining with contemplative rap writings and three-part folk harmonies, Shut-ins and the Colony create an album that feels as heavy as the day and as relieving as the night. An album where the contributors figure out how to extend themselves and transcend their confinement, recognizing that sometimes you have to lock yourself in a room to do so.
