About Mikal kHill & Romero Shaw
Sometime around 2005, Mikal kHill and a producer known then as Varick Pyr kicked around the idea for an EP of material. Sometime after that, Varick disappeared into the ether. In the inter-rim, Varick trasmuted into Romero Shaw, and produced tracks for indie rap icons Sage Francis, Noah 23, Icon the Mic King, and Sadistik, while kHill blazed a path with his indie/nerdcore hip-hop live band The ThoughtCriminals, performing at SXSW as part of the official Nerdcore showcase, collaborating with some of the subgenre's biggest names, and composing the Nathan-Fillion-Approved "Browncoats Mixtape" with Adam WarRock, which drew praise from sites as varied as Io9, The Escapist and even the rabid hip-hop lovers at Reader's Digest. Finally, in mid-2011, the two reconnected via Twitter and once again found themselves toying with the idea of an EP of bleak hip-hop. Eleven tracks later, we are left with "dust," a full album boasting some of kHill's most focused work, featuring a steady stream of incredible production from Romero, as well as collaborations with Adam WarRock, Tribe One and fellow-ThoughtCriminal Sulfur.
