Alien Nesby (of 23) and Amos Gaynes are the men behind A23P. The idea behind the A23P project, had it's roots in the initial 23 sound that had carried through the mid 90s to start of the 2000s and had focused mainly on various forms of "acid" dance forms; with a special focus on house and techno. During this time period, Alien had elected to follow the lines as such artist as Prototype 909 and conduct all live p.a.'s in a spontaneous manner; simply making up and controlling the music from the ground up as a performance progressed.

Though 23 would come to divert from an "acid" focus, Alien maintained an interest in not just the acid sound, but a musical outlet based around spontaneity; a means by which the artist expressed the self through a raw form with no chance for studio production tricks and the like to polish up what was generated. A23P would come to be the avenue by which this was carried out.

In 2010 Amos Gaynes, of Moog company notoriety and a musician himself, would come on board A23P.
Offering his own plethora of both music writing and musical instrument engineering insights, Gaynes would help issue forth a new chapter in the A23P sound.
While not at all completely abandoning the roots of A23P, collectively both Alien and Amos would elect to widen the musical scope of the project, incorporating musical ideas ranging from jazz and industrial, to glitch and other experimental forms in tow with A23P's original acid carryouts.


To say at present that A23P pushes the boundaries of Acid musical forms would be to limited.
Perhaps more apt to say that A23P, the duo of Amos Gaynes and Alien Nesby, is more so a representation of the pushing of music itself into entirely new sonic landscapes and genre.
