A Plain White Wrapper
Real name: Christopher Lee Shick
Initially a play on words for an emcee, “A Plain White Wrapper” began in the summer of 2005, formed By Christopher “Razorsharp” Shick. This was quickly scrapped in favor of a project containing straight instrumental beats with occasional vocals.After joining a local band fronted by a few friends already in the underground music scene, Christopher began his musical journey. Primed by tutoring from his mentors and newly armed with inspiration from a wide range of different genres and artists, Chris focused on developing his own unique sound. “A Plain White Wrapper” emerged four years later as a blend of 90′s Trip-Hop, Industrial and newer variants such as Dubstep and Glitch-Hop– full of ambient loops, reverb laden melodies, distorted lo-fi bass lines and crunchy chopped drum loops.
“A Plain White Wrapper” begins the new decade with his first Division X album; “The Voice In The Wire” released in early 2010. Christopher is currently working with his frequent collaboration partners for the first of a long list of Live PA performances scheduled to begin in February. A supplemental remix EP of his track “Android” is scheduled for release in stores April 1st, featuring remixes by DJ Seoul, T.Linder, Function13, INDSCY4, Gusto and Messerschmidt and a bonus remix by Red Pill Blue Pill.
