Luck-One & Dekk: Beautiful Music

Hailing from two different regions, and approaching the music with from two different perspectives, emcee Luck-One and producer Dekk come together seamlessly to put forth what will be the debut project for them both on the short length album entitled Beautiful Music, a non-profit offering set to raise awareness about the plight of those in Haiti, the western hemisphereâs poorest nation.

Introduced through a mutual acquaintance in late summer of â08, just weeks after Luck was released from serving over half a decade in Oregon prisons, Luck and Dekk, a University of Oregon graduate who holds a Bachelorâs degree in Sociology, began their relationship discussing hip-hop and the direction it was to take in the new millennium. Soon, Luck was making bi-weekly Greyhound trips down to Dekkâs in home studio in Salem, and those discussions would slowly become the foundation of their stellar debut, completed less than five months from their first conversation.

Beautiful Music is daring, yet cohesive. Awe inspiring in itâs ability to push the envelope with Dekkâs often eclectic production, while at the same time remain undeniably hip-hop through Luck-Oneâs true school lyricism, this is an album that is sure to please. Throughout, Luckâs gripping rhyme schemes are flawlessly interwoven with Dekkâs irrefutably next-level soundscapes, drenched in his signature synth-heavy sound, and backed by the sparse drum patterns that add to the tracks without taking away from the urgent messages that frame them.

The lead track 80âs Back, is a pulsing ode to a time that seemed more simple, while The Coolax is a mellow head nodder loosely framed around the concept of different art forms and their interconnectedness. Prince witâ A Thousandâs rugged guitar riffs give Luck the breathing room necessary to prove that he is an MCsâ MC as he adroitly bobs and weaves through a staccato drum pattern, oozing hip-hop swagger and undeniable charisma.

Powerful enough in itâs message to transcend itâs genre classification, yet loaded with the hardscrabble morality tales and inner-city realism that speaks to the streets, the duo succeeds in their effort to captivate listeners across the spectrum.

With their aggressive marketing strategies already taking shape in the form of constant spins on every medium for Indie hip-hop in Portland, Oregonâs terrestrial radio market, and a 3-month college tour spanning seven states locked in for early â09, these two are raising the stakes for independent musicians in the Northwest. With the release of their first disc, Luck-One and Dekk make a grand coming out party, showing themselves to be pioneers of a dope new sound. Beautiful Music indeed.
