Artsy post hip-hop from this Vancouver based trio. Interesting collage of sounds, beats and instruments as well as a variety of different song styles ranging from slow and brooding to pretty funky. Sparse in vocals with some snippets of political commentary about Chinese immigrants in Canada and Malcolm X speeches. Similar to DJ Shadow, Kid Koala
Track Picks: 3,4,8,9 *** FCC Clean ***

1. chinese gangster movie dialogue and ominous beats
2. midtempo; dark beats + twangy guitars, play at night
**3. indie-rock guitar; pretty chilled
**4. uptempo; bongos+horns, funky!
5. oriental beat with bouzouki (?)
6. hair metal deconstruction!
7. downtempo; speeches about immigration
**8. melodic+fluid percussion; very relaxed
**9. speech@intro with bouncy beats later on
10. midtempo; strings+organ
11. midtempo faux jazz; good soundbed
12. a mix of latin grooves
