The EP opens with Lanekasi, a heavy stepping kwaito stomp that features vocalist Teba Shumba delivering dark and brooding phrases in his native slang that combines the languages of Zulu and Xhosa. Next up is Like A Punk. A dub-tribal juggernaut with an industrial edge, Like A Punk is lethal sonic artillery for any sound system worth its weight. Pure sound boy murderation! Track three is the instrumental Tropical Operator Riddim. A percussive and airy melody sings and dubs its way through a lush atmosphere sublimely balanced by the gravity of a smooth and assertive bassline. Closing out the EP is For The Grace, a re-worked version of Tropical Operator Riddim that features the vocals of Teba Shumba.

I love tight production and hard-to-categorize styles. While there are genres of music that I particularly like, when it comes to me and my music, genres collide to form tracks that collectively define what I hear as an evolving and ambitious sound.

My first official releases were under the name Totemplow (1996-2001) and were mostly guitar-oriented experimental ambient excursions, although I did get into sampling near the end of it. Some of my favorite press described Totemplow as "one of the deepest (as in depth charges) mixes around” (Andrew Bartlett/The Stranger) and "inspired ritualist on a journey through strange musical topographies" (Marc Kate)

In the early 1990’s I played guitar and sang in a couple of psychedelic grunge bands in my hometown of Seattle. Those bands were Longbottom Weed (1989-91) and Shiva (1991-94).
