Glenrothes🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 boy stolen to Africa, Durban SA...learnt the lie of the land..Sent to AUS..QLD beaches.. Blessed to have been born in the sweet spot that had me come of age... Nirvana one week, The Prodigy the next..exploring everything that came from the most eclectic decade there ever is or was..and discovering and walking amongst my tribe. The first time I felt not an outsider in my life. On & On.

Musical genres are the final frontier. Genres were a master craft of the commercial mutts looking to sell music and was devised as the only way to be able to group music and make it marketable, AKA, findable by the general public. 

It’s the only mechanisation of this system they have left and we need to accept all music especially as we head back into the underground for the 3rd awakening. Good music that’s well produced is WORTHY of everyone’s understanding. WAKE THE FUCK UP. You know, we're spinning wheels remixing all dah shit you don't know from back there....wot U gonna do for us now we here?!!

I acknowledge the Whadjuk Noongar people as the traditional custodians of the land I am currently situated on. I pay my respects to their Elders past, present and emerging. Sovereignty has never ceded. This always was, and always will be, Aboriginal Land.
