William Lamont Robinson, whom convinced his friends, family and associates to call him HASAN (Arabic for Beauty) after reverting to ISLAM in 1992, abruptly places his key in the door and gently moves his right foot inside. Sporting a pair of low top Chuck Taylors, he moves his thin frame through and enters sporting a white linen suit with a long Middle Eastern formal top (kurda shirt) and a cap with a pen pertruding from the right side.

A confessed functional, psychotic, skit so, black punk. He finally opens up his inner most heart. As a watcher, walker and swimmer in life, he independently self-produces & publishes for URBAN SUFI MUSIC (sesac). His reputation as a solid designer of experimental video and cinema is sound, conceptually drawing from based Mono-Salvaged light Film Music, Abstract Cinema, Dada and Surrealism.

A product of Hip Hop culture, he composes eastern to western 21st century AVANT-GARDE , OTHER, ECLECTIC, ELECTRONIC, ABSTRACT, MINIMAL, SAMPLED, MIDI, NU-JAZZ, BROKEN BEAT & HIP HOP with a blend of blues & electric soul. He dubs it "ECLECTRIC". (See; Autolect, AHMM, Autolect & His Meltdown Movement, dUbeCleCtriC, Felah, Mikial, Mr. Watson, Eru & The Caliban Project)

Influenced by POLYPHONIC JAZZ, ARABIC CHORDS & HARMONY, Will utilizes computer aided programs on windows and mac based units. "I prefer SONY ACID though", he simply exclaims.

At the age of 8, William's father reenlisted in the United States Air Force. The family was stationed in the UK at the "TWIN BASES" Bentwaters & Woodbridge. Bentwaters is also known as the location for the alleged December 1980 UFO incident in Rendlesham Forest. In 1984 the family moved to Castle Air Force Base in the town of Atwater, California, where he grew up.

In 1993, he moved to Los Angeles, pursuing his love for music and joined Amani K. Smith (Urban Score), POMO (Blend Crafters) & Marlo (Gritty Kings) to form THE GIANTS. William began to produce and record records with THE GIANTS and gained the attention of Dj Nu-Mark ( Jurassic 5) with a song called "The Baddest Brother" (Produced By: POMO). Numark was a talent scout and supervisor of recording sessions in the Los Angeles area for Correct Records. Without any success, Correct attempted to sign the song to a single deal.

In 1997, he recorded and released "Usephasan - Chemistry Teraqueous" (including "The Baddest Brother"), on his own independent label, Required / New Harvest. He also appeared alongside notable artists such as Sole of Anticon & Vaste Aire of Cannibol Ox on the Centrifugal Phorce Records release, "The Persecution Of Hip Hop."

After the release of his second single, notably named "Usephasan - KH: Iman.Cip.8.tor cd" in 1999, and his third, a white label vinyl, "Usephasan - Klassic Soul" in 2001, he went into seclusion.

From 2004-7, Robinson stepped back in the studio & released a 4 album series under the moniker AUTOLECT. Every Mans Universe (2005), The Man That Fell To Earth (2006),Think Drink (2007) and; Autolect: Between God & The Deep Blue(2007) which featured 2 college charting singles, "Akh Fantastic" (7) & "Movin" (3) both produced by west coast indie underground producer FANATIK (stones throw & planet asia).

As a focused writer, he is also the voice of AUTOLECT, delivering ABSTRACT, ARTICULATE, CLEAR, SHARP, CONCISE lines with precision timing and edge.
