This is London producer Akinya (https://soundcloud.com/beatsfromaki), founder of Fortune Head. He learns the German language in Dusseldorf and has been producing dope dumps for 2.5 years. Growing up in a musical home, he picked up the jazz rudiments from dear old dad and felt the rhythm of Nigerian highlife music. If you want to make it straight to his heart, get this man a bowl of jollof rice and groundnut (peanut) stew. He'll tell you anything. You can spot him wearing some gritty Reebok Classics that look like they are haunted by the spirits of someone's ancestors, oh lawd. Nobody loves making beats with their crew more.

This is producer Lucky Pouch (https://soundcloud.com/luckypouch) from Texas, one of the founders of Fortune Head. A 15 year music veteran/road warrior, he has been making sampled hip-hop since 2019 and is a self-proclaimed goth god and guitar hog. Bicycle rides to the library to pick up DVD copies of movies like 2 Fast 2 Furious are among his passions and if he had wishes from a genie it'd be cheese pizza on all three counts. He wears all black, all of the time, but is trying to branch out with colors. His goal is to curate a unique music scene with all types of musicians.

Saint Romain (https://soundcloud.com/maxstromain) is a Texas producer and founder of Fortune Head. He is no stranger to the hip-hop scene and has been producing for almost 4 years. You can hear the trademark sounds in his work: roars, screams and tidbits taken from all of the old horror movies he loves. The only time he ever leaves his house is to cruise down to Sonic on his Heelys - toes up style. The rest of the time he is face down in the DAW or exorcising demons on his SPs. He is inspired by the members of Fortune Head and other influences to reach a more defined, personal sound.

Jooha. (https://soundcloud.com/joohabeats) is our Portugal rep, and is a founding member of Fortune Head. He's not been producing music for long, but has more banger tracks than flipping Mozart. When he isn't playing Minecrafts with the homies he's choppin' and warpin', crafting 2-4 beats a day. For real. His favorite dish is turbot fish and fries and the kid drinks mad water. You've never seen anyone drink so much water. He's like a Portuguese water wizard. He likes having chats in English with his collective mates and is always down for the collab.

Kamii (https://soundcloud.com/kamii_da_gr8) is a producer from Maryland and founding member of Fortune Head, who loves the sound of old school and underground hip hop. He spends most of his time studying J Dilla, Knxwledge and Madlib. Nowadays he spends most of his days making beats and looking for peach colored shoes to buy (lookin' at you crimson tint Jo-1s). You can find him crushing a Clark burger - talking to his homies and listening to music. He'll sample anything as long as it has some soul in it.

Here is analog producer Abstract Lion (https://soundcloud.com/abstractlion) - a founding member of Fortune Head who hangs his hat in Connecticut. Using an array of machines you wish you had, he crafts satisfyingly original tunes that pay tribute to the days of yore and set the tone for days yet to come. When he isn't cutting tape or constructing all-analog visuals you might find him absorbing the sage chakra on a nature walk. Normal is just a cycle on a washing machine.
