A
native of Minneapolis, Cheap Cologne has been in the Minnesota music scene
for years. Music was in his blood from the start, as a kid too young to stay up
late to listen to the hip-hop radio show on sunday nights, he would tape songs
off the radio while he was asleep and then make mixtapes on cassette. Then he
got some turntables and started DJ'ing for various artists in the Twin Cities
and eventually he evolved into a producer. He has played shows at venues like
First Avenue, The Quest, The Cabooze, and The Red Sea with artists Atmosphere,
Heiruspecs, The Shapeshifters, Oddjobs, and Dosh & Sole of Anticon. Cheap
Cologne has been compared musically to RJD2, his debut album Just A Little
Sample features guests: Slug from Atmosphere, Awol One &
Circus of the Shapeshifters, Elias, Gentle Jones, DJ
T-Rock of the 1200 Hobos, Unsung,
and
LA Symphonys' Pigeon John.

an interview with Cheap Cologne
"Cheap Cologne's bombastic beats are the
treat. Wear your helmet and your dancin' pants at the same time because this
beat warfare will put your body into submission". - Barry Braun KVSC St
Cloud
"CHEAP
COLOGNE "JUST A LITTLE SAMPLE" (Bomb/US/CD) Dave Paul always comes
with the good shit, like his latest installment of the seminal Return of the
DJ, Volume 5, but this here Cheap Cologne is something else entireley. Part
indie rock/hip-hop with turntablism and jazz licks and MCs, they've just gotta
be from someplace bizarre like Minnesota or Chicago. Tracks to check are "Sobercab",
the lovely "Wheezing" and the almost indescribable "Poke @ The
Art"." - #2 on Toph One's Lucky 13 (XLR8R)
