“For fans of Aesop Rock’s labyrinthine lyricism or Clipping.’s industrial edge, this track is a haunting reminder that hip-hop can still dissect the mundane to reveal the profound.” – Folded Waffle

The third single from A library called Calder is out now…
After living in the inner city for most of his life, Epic retired from his career and moved away from the centre of the city, a change that provided some unexpected time to take a look back at his life and the little details that define who we are. The inspiration was unexpected and Epic soon discovered that Northside life was in sharp contrast to life in the decaying Edmonton centre. Surprisingly, the shining Christmas lights on the many neighbourhood bungalows were most noticeable. With a beat from Deadly Stare (Triune Gods, Endemik Music) that underscore life’s rhythms and precious moments, “Chickpeas” invites us warmly into Epic’s world.
Written and performed by Epic
Produced and Mixed by Deadly Stare

The second single from The Dirty Sample’s Love Always Wins If You Let It…
One look and the chaos of the world comes together into unity. All of this madness leads the eyes to love, and love is seen everywhere. Even the darkest places still have love. You just have to be looking. Because love always wins if you let it. You just need the vision. And The Dirty Sample helps inspire this vision with a chill boom bap beat built out of slamming drums and horn stabs.
Produced by The Dirty Sample
