Formed in New York in 1997, Antipop Consortium released their early work on their own label and fellow Hip Hop experimentalist Dan The Automator's 75 Ark imprint. The band opened for Radiohead during their Amnesiac tour in 2001 and subsequently opened for DJ Shadow before Warp released the critically acclaimed Arrhythmia in 2002.
