Sydney, Australia hip-hop crew MetaBass (a.k.a. MetaBass 'n' Breath) was formed by rappers Morganics, Baba, and Elf Tranzporter. They honed their skills busking on the streets of Sydney before meeting Trent Roden from Slingshot who became the group's manager - subsequent additions to the lineup included DJs Neicha and Nick Toth, keyboardist/trumpeter Adam 'Sloth' Burrell, bassist Jay Bondy, drummer Rory 'Brother Love' Toomey, MC/dancer Physical Linguistics and guitarist Haydn Walker.

The group self-released their debut album, Seek, in 1997 followed by several mix tapes, EPs and 12" singles culminating in the full-length release Life and Times of a Beatboxer through Bomb Recordings San Fran in 1999.

Studio recordings aside, Metabass were famed for their often manic and hugely entertaining live shows... filled with theatrical comedy, impromptu rhyming and musical freestyling, Metabass live is an experience not to be missed... one thing is certain: no two shows were or ever will be the same.
