elefant traks are excited to present Apsci (pron. App-sigh) and their debut album Get It Twisted. New York based, Apsci is made up of Sydney femme Dana Diaz-Tutaan as well as NYC gents RA LaMotta and DJ Big Wiz.

Get It Twisted is a startlingly original piece of work, an album that effortlessly blurs the line between electronics and hip hop with just a hint of opera. Dana and RA are the vocal/production team whilst Def Jux disc jockey, DJ Big Wiz handles the turntables like a true vinyl musician. Conceived and recorded in nine cities and eight countries from Sydney to Manila to Paris, NYC and London, we're talking about a cross-continental escapade into the new and exciting shit.

Guesting on the album is Mike Ladd (Infesticons), Antibalas' Martin Perna, Don Newkirk (engineer and skit announcer on De La Soul's 3 Feet High and Rising), Mocky and TV on the Radio's Tunde.

Get It Twisted is music to get genuinely excited about, one of 2003's must-listen albums.

elefant traks, the label that brought you The Herd, Hermitude and Ubin are the first people worldwide to release Apsci. Focusing on quality and innovative music, this is elefant traks' first international release and their third full length release for 2003.
