Starting with pause mix experiment tapes in the late 1980s Floyd The Locsmif has since produced music for some of the most respected emcees in underground & independent hip-hop.

Alongside DJ Jamad (Afromentals/The Aphilliates), Locsmif entered the mixtape scene in 2004 with the highly acclaimed Outskirts: The Unofficial Lost OutKast Remixes, an OutKast remix CD, consequently expanding Locsmif's fan base and laying the foundation for his widely received Divine Dezignz series.

Adding upon the success of Discovery, Locsmif secured a national distribution deal with Fontana through High Wire Music to release Divine Dezignz 1.2: Re-Discovered.

Guests on the record include Lil Sci (from Scienz Of Life and Sol Uprising), Stahhr (from MF Doom / King Geedorah’s “Take Me To Your Leader” LP), and others.

Locsmif's versatility in the music marketplace has landed him spots on various mixtapes and compilations such as Shaman Work Recordings' 2005 Beatology Vol.
