El-P is about as popular as you can get while still being firmly underground. He's like the Sonic Youth of hip hop. He was part of the mighty Company Flow and has since done a bunch of other stuff including founding the Def Jux label.

Wikipedia says:

El-P is a great fan of science fiction, notably writer Philip K. Dick, and many of Dick's themes, such as paranoia and questions about the nature of reality, feature in El-P's work. References to George Orwell, Arthur C. Clarke, and Star Trek spin-off Deep Space 9 sit comfortably alongside more traditional rap references, such as to the likes of LL Cool J and Boogie Down Productions.

As a producer, Meline is notable for his innovative mix of bleak futurism and low fidelity sounds. His dense, claustrophobic sounds are strongly influenced by Public Enemy's production team, The Bomb Squad, as well as innovators like Art of Noise and Nine Inch Nails.

And who can argue with the all-knowing wikipedia?


Anyway, the reason for this post is that I just downloaded his Weareallgoingtoburninhellmegamixx2 which he released for free download the other day. Check it out.
