 Just so you know me best, Im a professional painter, Ive painted walls and objects for most of my 38years on this rock, and I love spray cans and paint brushes. Color is the name of the game.
 My life changed forever in 1983, when I saved enough money for my first skateboard from my killer longs ass paper route up the side of a mountain here in the Comox Valley. A good skateboard cost almost 300 $$$ bucks then, ya I know crazy dude. But from these things I found my place and had something to belong to. If I could give anyone any advice, it would be to get totally stoked on what you love and never look back for too long, just stay the course and cool things come to be.

Totem is the solo project of Boulder based producer, Phoenix Clay Michael. Phoenix has been playing eastern-style instrumentation for over a decade(tabla, doumbek, darbuki, didgeridoo, ric, native flute etc). With Totem, Phoenix explores the digital domain with rich melodies, psychedelic synths, and exotic instrumentation. Totem culminates these two passions into a modern interpretation of ancient instruments. The sampling style is deep and visceral. Blending sequences of thick bass and instrumentation with live production. Live production includes: Didgeridoo, vocals, synth, keyboard, percussion, and bass. Phoenix's debut album with Totem is titled, The Bonfire of Life, and was written as a motion of solidarity with the native tribes of North America. Totem sees the immense potency that dance has for healing in our culture, and also sees the reverent nature of ancient and native style music. The ultimate thrill is fusing these two things into a continuous musical experience shared amongst listener and maker. Totem is humbled to bring thy dance medication. Aho
