Keeping alive the tradition of authentic hip-hop beats, Floyd the Locsmif
channels the energy found in the 1960s and 70s-era jazz, soul, and funk
crates that he frequently raids, making him one of finest producers to
emerge from the south. Hailing from the humble town of Fitzgerald, GA,
Locsmif currently crafts his one-of-a-kind beats down in Atlanta û the
unofficial southern ôMeccaö of innovative hip-hop û where he stays true
to his name by unlocking the conventional limits of soul and hip-hop music
production. Considering himself a ômusical locksmith,ö each of LocsmifÆs unique
rhythmic creations are almost never identical. From his ôpause mixö experiment
tapes of the late 1980s, to his first sampler investment in 1993, Locsmif continues
to bless eardrums with a different sound experience, using his signature ôchop styleö
of production and sometimes lush, almost classical, soul music.
Alongside DJ Jamad (Afromentals/The Aphilliates), Locsmif entered the mixtape
scene in 2004 with the highly-acclaimed Outskirts: The Unofficial Lost OutKast Remixes,
an OutKast remix CD, consequently expanding LocsmifÆs fan base and laying the foundation
for his widely received Divine Dezignz series.
In early 2005, LocsmifÆs Divine Dezignz #1: Discovery, a collection of his original soul
and hip-hop instrumentals, made its debut at iTunes and was featured on three consecutive
iTunes Street Official Mixtapes. Adding upon the success of #1: Discovery, Locsmif secured
a national distribution deal with Fontana through High Wire Music to release
Divine Dezignz #1.2: Re-Discovered.
