Formerly known as the X-Men (they changed their identify, for copyright reasons, when they signed with the Asphodel mark in 1997), the four-person radical consists of Mista Sinista, Rob Swift, Total Eclipse, and Roc Raida; a world-renowned crew whose past credits include national and international titles for trick and engagement DJing, as well as live and studio sour with artists such as Organized Konfusion, Large Professor, the Beatnuts, and Artifacts. Originally formed in 1989 by Roc Raida with Steve D, Johnny Cash, and Sean Cee, the grouping adoptive the name X-Men on the occasion of a battle with another New York crew, the Supermen (that engagement never happened). They went to return the DJ to a position of prominence in hip-hop, a position for the most part usurped in the '80s and '90s by MCs and producers, as rap grew into nonpareil of the largest and virtually profitable genres in the American euphony manufacture. Making exclusively new tracks from bits and pieces of early records manipulated by hand (rather than with a sampler and sequencer), the X-ecutioners combine state of the art scratch with the hip-hop DJ's basics of cutting, mix, and beat juggling. The grouping play alive much, and feature performed in clubs, exhibitions, and competitions on quadruplet continents.
