Excerpt from basementalism.org
In the early days Basementalism consisted of various people including Mike “Adict”, Nate “Resonant” Harvey (of Hip-Hop group The Procussions), “Nime”, DJ Vajra, B-Boy Jeff, and Jesse “DJ Mung” Reim. The vision was to create a hip-hop radio show that would uncover and educate the often overlooked underground of hip-hop left in the shadows of mainstream commercial rap music. Focusing on the positive elements of hip-hop, Basementalism began to expose new talent and music in the national underground hip-hop scene, and push forth a cohesive Colorado Hip-Hop Scene that would bring together all elements of Hip-Hop: Emceeing, Grafitti, Breakdancing, and DJing. At this time Mike “Adict” would also go on to become the Student General Manager of KVCU Radio1190am. In this period Basementalism saw short lived syndications in a few countries including South Africa.
