Profile
Fat Jon's music has more universal appeal than that of the average hip-hop beat-maker. Fat Jon works with Wave Motion and Kool Motor. Wave Motion resonates with downtempo grooves and psychedelic rock, while Kool Motor features a techno beat Fat Jon likes to call "fast hip-hop."
Fat Jon has worked with many artists. Some he is known for is with fellow Ohio producer and spirit J. Rawls, with whom he's formed the group 3582; cLOUDDEAD/Anticon's avant rapper Doseone, and Japanese MC Shingo 2.
"Even if my music doesn't sound [advanced], the approach is futuristic". True, Fat Jon still defines himself as a "hip-hop producer". He specializes in the classic breaks-based beats known underground as "love". With the help of "B.E.A.T.", an album of a group of his (Five Deez), he's able to make out a distinctive identity, winning and subverting closed minds. "It's 2002, man. We're in the 21st century," he says. "We're living in the space age; let's make some space-age *bleep*."

Fat Jon is pretty talented! He has done some great works like the soundtrack for Samurai Champloo. His music has a very spacey, techno feel to it that sets him apart from other artists. Below are some great samples! Enjoy :D
