[edit] History
Having begun Evol Intent Recordings in 2000, Knick and Gigantor created a conduit suitable for their own productions as well as those by friends and like minded producers. Very shortly, the Enemy joined ranks via the internet and eventually relocated to contribute. Evol Intent began to release their own material and played at host of regional performances. Tracks like "Seven Angels for Seven Plagues", "Red Soil", and "Where's the Score" remix began generating serious popularity on the dubplate circuit; which in turn got the interest of artists like Technical Itch and Dylan. They then received attention from the Trouble On Vinyl music group and were signed to the offshoot label, Renegade Hardware.
Within the last two years, Evol Intent have involved themselves in numerous projects with Renegade Hardware. The "Us Against the World" LP, Mix CD, and tour have given rise to numerous developments and collaborations particularly with Barcode friend, Ewun. In addition they released the long awaited "Police State" EP with Renegade Hardware. Having already featured on Dieselboys Human Imprint by contributing to the "Dungeon Master's Guide" compilation, Evol Intent were chosen to produce an exculsive mix for the latest release "The Human Resource" LP featuring artists such as Ewun, Infiltrata, Kaos and Mayhem. The group also had a series of collaborative releases featuring the likes of Mayhem and Thinktank and have linked up with Spor, Ewun and Unknown Error for the brand new Lifted Music Label.
The group made its video game debut with the appearance of two tracks on the coveted EA Sports' Need for Speed. The three are also constantly working on live rock/punk music endeavors and record numerous rock and hip hop outfits in their Atlanta based studio.
[edit] Future
With the assistance of LOAD Media, Evol Intent Recordings is set to release new material by Mumblz, Arsenic and Counterstrike. The label will also feature remix treatment courtesy of Technical Itch and Milwaukee based, Gein. They are set to launch their own clothing online shop and have plans to launch a full on live show in 2007.
