Egyptrixx

With the tons of hyped up (but utterly mediocre) dance music that comes out these days, it's pretty hard to stand apart from the herd; not the case with Toronto's Egyptrixx. In just over one year, his distinct sonic aesthetic has become an acclaimed presence in underground music, garnering praise from heavyweight DJ's, including Sinden, Mary Ann Hobbs and Drop the Lime, and influential publications such as Fader, Xlr8r and The Wire magazine.

The Sons

The Sons blend timeless guitar pop with a complex style of song-writing to create a dark slice of summer with a seedy underbelly. It's all about being honest, yet covered in a dreamscape that will inspire and confuse; that elusiveness that keeps me and you interested.
Isn't it..?
