Since the release of "Sixblox" which was early 2015 Wiles has been many hardships that have hindered him from completing a full project until now. At first the project was just him an Unlucky Bastards working on singles like "Indy1500" & "Liquid" then joined by his brother Graymatter to finish it off.
