What do you get when you combine a politically minded indie rapper, a folk singer/songwriter, and a German producer specializing in ambient new wave sounds? Time, aka Chris Steele, is a north Denver native who s been making waves in the hip-hop world for years now, working with the likes of Mick Jenkins, Psalm One, Common and Talib Kweli. Back in 2010, he decided to put out one album a month, resulting in 86 songs released as The Hydra Collection. Someone from his mailing list who had been a fan of his music sent him some beats to potentially use. That person was A Thousand Vows, aka Florian Filsinger, a music producer from Germany whose style ranges from hip-hop to electronica to experimental new wave. They ended up collaborating on several tracks, including a few with Jason Horodyski, the frontman (and currently the only member) of Maudlin Magpie, whom Steele met when they both worked at the Regis University library.
