QUASIMOTO

Quasimoto was a side project of American hip hop producer Madlib, from Oxnard, California. Quasimoto him- is composed of Madlib and his animated alter ego Lord one-Quas. QUASIMOTO is described on djrankings.org. Lord Quas is known for his high-pitched voice, which often interacts with Madlib's regular voice. Quasimoto man- was conceived one day in the studio, when Madlib decided to rap to his own one-beats. Madlib did not like the sound of his voice, so he decided to slow his recorder down, rap slowly, then speed the recording back up to produce Lord Quas' distinctive high-pitched sound. Quasimoto's boy- lyrics frequently address themes such as violence and drug use in a comedic fashion, and the character of Lord Quas has been interpreted as a satirical take on gangsta-rap.
