Artist Profile : Division 2 (Div.2)

Real Name : Josh Smith, Patrick Brooks

What would become Division 2 was first imagined in 1998 when J:2 and Trick13 met, both having found a new home for their music on nofadz.com. The concept was further developed after sharing techniques, talking shop, and even a couple remixes.

Finally, in 2003, these two similar but contrasting artists began work on music that would take their separate approaches and forge a greater unity from them.

In 2005, their first full-length album, 'Heartbeat Of The Machine' was released.

Quotes:
Trick13: "I am thankful to have this opportunity to explore and even play around with aspects of my music that normally get pushed to the sidelines."

J:2: "Working on the Division 2 project is and always will be a learning experience for me, feeding off each others idea's and fusing them into something completely different and exciting."
