Wab Kinew is my hero.
From dropping bars to dropping legislation—this man is living proof that culture, leadership, and hip hop can walk side by side. I’ve been waiting for the right moment to create something in his honour, and it’s finally here.
I just finished an Indigenous hip hop meets politics remix inspired by the one and only Premier of Manitoba. The energy, the message, the fire—it’s all in there. Stay tuned.

Much respect, Wab. Love you to bits.

Find Your Flame

Phoenix Risen

Taken from their album Fire It Up, "Real Bad Boys" makes a very subtle reference to the chord structure on Inner Circle's famous "Bad Boys" and features the distinctive guttural vocal tones of Blackout JA. Remix-wise Irish Moss have called in the big guns. Jalapeno's Basement Freaks turn in a strutting nu-funk blend!

PausePlay: The Handrum and Bass Journey

PausePlay is an Indigenous music creator and mashup artist embarked on a journey of sonic exploration. Inspired by the rhythms of drum and bass and the soulful melodies of Indigenous hip hop and traditional singing, he sought to merge these diverse influences into a unique sound. The spark ignited while watching DJ Shub on CBC Music’s YouTube series “DJ Shub War Club” in 2021, where the track “Indomitable” at 161bpm led to a revelation of its compatibility with the drum and bass tempo of 172bpm.

Delving deeper into this musical fusion, he discovered Fawn Woods’ track “Love is Real” at 76bpm, which, after adjustments to 86bpm for halftiming with drum and bass, seamlessly intertwined with the rhythmic landscape. Critical key adjustments were made to harmonize vocals with the track’s melody, resulting in the birth of “Handrum and Bass.”

This newfound sound wasn’t just a musical experiment; it became a digital pathway deeply rooted in Indigenous culture, weaving a tapestry of tradition and storytelling. From the groovy vibes of Indigenous Funk to the gritty beats of DDD dark hip hop, his creations captivated audiences far and wide.

With each beat and melody, his story resonated, bridging cultures and creating a harmonious blend of past and present, tradition and innovation. And as the stage lights dimmed and the music began to play, the narrative of PausePlay continued to unfold, leaving audiences mesmerized by the magic of Handrum and Bass!

Hailing from the Kootenays, BC. This funky clown with a wicked style and the groovy bassline that's bound to keep ya dancing loves making music, and especially making people dance their booty's off.
After taking a step back in 2016 to deal with health and wellness, it's time to make a comeback. 

With an appetite for a wide variety of genres, he gets his name from how he is able to bend up and slice together different genres. Keeping you on your toes, as you stride to the flows of the funky basslines chopped up with some glitch hop, Breaks, and a hint of trap.
