Octopus Inc is responsible for some of the weirdest downtempo on the planet. His loose, organic beats are full of strange sounds and otherworldly elements.
Noah Sasso (aka Octopus Inc and Pacman) was born and raised in New Jersey. After recording two albums worth of material as Pacman in high school, he switched to the Octopus Inc moniker and began spending more time in Southern California. In 1999 he released Mere Things and Mindless Creatures. After a two year break, he released Fluid Freedom for Kracfive. The album features a beautiful blend of acoustic and electronic instrumentation. Each of Sasso's songs have traces of ordinary beats -- but they've been put through Sasso's sonic meatgrinder, with cool and engaging results.
