| Profile: | The year was 1995. Somewhere in Brooklyn, NY, after years of spitting rhymes solo and crossing each others paths, four former adversaries buried the hatchet. They combined their talents and made history. ILL BILL, Goretex, Sabac Red and DJ Eclipse formed Non Phixion and jumped directly in the studio. Within six months they released their debut single, "Legacy" b/w "No Tomorrow" followed by an onslaught of critically acclaimed 12" singles that have sold over 100,000 copies combined.
From it's earliest stages, the group possessed it's own unique style that is best distilled to "b-boy gangster meets futuristic world of apocalypse". A complex blend of opposites is at the core of the Non Phixion sound. Not since Wu Tang's heyday has hip-hop witnessed such a display of unity and strength. Non Phixion has three distinct flows, three different voices and three different types of lyrical content, yet they all compliment each other in an impressive and powerful way.
After 2 years signed to Geffen Records yielded nothing, Non Phixion continued releasing music independently and began touring the world on their own. They've performed in all of NYC's major venues and done shows everywhere. Some of the places that have witnessed Non Phixion live include Los Angeles, Boston, San Francisco, Seattle, Chicago, Las Vegas, Philly, San Diego, Atlanta, Toronto, Amsterdam, London, Oslo, Milan, Zurich, Copenhagen and Berlin.Some of the groups they have shared the stage with include Gang Starr, Run-D.M.C, Gza, Mos Def, Black Moon, Pharoahe Monch, The X-Ecutioners, Big Pun, Fat Joe, Necro, The Beatnuts, Jurassic 5, El-P, Dead Prez and The Roots. Non Phixion have earned themselves a dedicated fan base across the United States, Europe and Japan.
