Erick Elliott (AKA Erick the Architect) is a multifaceted person. He certainly earns his title as an architect, an architect of many things. In his solo work, Erick is someone who can never be boxed into just one category. Whether it’s being a graphic designer, singer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, or coder, Erick is always prepared to add to his repertoire of skills. In some senses, Erick is like the Stanley Kubrick of producers. And instead of adapting and unearthing novels, it is with samples. He has an ineffable ability to take an old record and flip it into something entirely contemporary. The very same records were the sounds that radiated through his childhood home, records from the 60s and 70s Motown and soul era. From having two older brothers Erick grew to love music which was before his time. As a rapper, Erick’s verses unpack like a set of mini-anthologies, amplified by a substructure of grounded thought and contemplations. “Within the last year, I feel I’ve grown exponentially. I’ve understood what it took and what it’s going to take for me to reach the next point in my career” says Erick speaking from his home studio in LA. The FUTURE PROOF EP is his first solo album since his project Almost Remembered in 2011. Previously, Erick has released two instrumental albums: Arcstrumentals, Vol. 1 and Vol. 2.
