Welcome to Digitalia. These are the Digital Champions. Behind the Fire Wall, nestled in the sprawling country of Fire Wall Nation, sits the city of I. P, home to billions of Flux, men and women just like you and I. But, while I. P. seems shiny and beautiful on the surface, beneath lies a seedy underbelly. Whether it’s the exploits of criminal organizations or secret and very illegal military programs maintained by a questionable military commander, corruption and deception are I. P.’s greatest exports. And to face it all are a reluctant man, outfitted with cybernetics that saved his life, and the A. I. partner that he never intended to create. Alpha Riff is an artist who loves telling stories, so it’s no surprise that his sophomore full length effort, Digital Champions: Migdal Bavel is a 23 track epic about a cybernetic bounty hunter, his A.I. partner, and the growing host of friends and foes they meet on their search to figure out how and why a lethal strain of C.O.D.E. is destroying everything in their world. He’s joined this time by his partner, MZ, as well as an all-star list of features: 1-UP, TV’s Tyler Boyco, Aramis, 2 Mello, TekForce, Zilla Persona, MC Ohm-I, Ekaj, 2-Ton 21, Ish1da, Nyte, Jollimus, Midi Boss of The Last Wordbenders, Matthew Mead of Kingdoms Burn, Kordlyss, Forneus Mod of Hanna Barbaric, Twill Distilled, Phantastik the Phenom and TyeFighter. What began as a simple bounty, described in Digital Champions: Bounty, an exclusive track featured on Nerdcore Absolution: Volume II, Alpha Riff and MZ come face to face with “The C.O.D.E.” (Centralized Object - Destructive Essence). The C.O.D.E. warps its recipients into C.O.D.E. Demons dead-set on devouring the pair. Grandiose, atmospheric tracks mix with hard hitting, metal influenced instrumentals and soaring, emotionally charged vocals to tell the story of a man, his machines, and the destiny they must ultimately face. And the story further expands in the Digital Champions trading cards, comic books, and mobile games. The art is evocative and the ideas challenge the normative. The battle is still being waged. Join Alpha Riff and MZ in their fight to free their world.
