Farnsworth while building a label that challenged what was “allowed” in music. From 1998–2012, it became a lightning rod for sample-based art, pushing legal and creative boundaries before going on hiatus as the industry shifted to digital.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNow, Illegal Art returns - with Matthew stepping out from behind the curtain and launching Myth Math, a more personal, song-driven project. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003eTongues\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e, his debut EP, marks both a new chapter for the label and a shift in his own work: blending samples with live instrumentation, songwriting, and vocals.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOriginally rooted in experimental collage (including the infamous Deconstructing Beck), Illegal Art later found wider impact through artists like Girl Talk, helping legitimize sampling as a respected art form.
