Additional Vocals: Kate Devlin – “What You Do”

Bass: Rob Vaarmeyer

Drums: Rob Shallcross – “What You Do”

Take a fresh step into Vancouver’s teaming underground music scene and discover The Random Humans. Appearing on the hip-hop scene with their self-titled three-song EP, which gives  a taste of what’s to come, The Random Humans strive to display a real expression of a generation’s musical influences and have only begun to scratch the surface.

Deception

With his quick wit and instinctual gift for spitting rhymes, Deception developed a love for expression through music after seeing his first freestyle battle in 2002. Since cutting his teeth writing and experimenting with over 100 songs, the Longview, Alberta native offers up a steady flow to accompany the beats provided by the talented beatsmith, Bear.

Bear

A Calgary native, the innovative beat machine first moved to Vancouver in 2006 to gain recording experience with Canadian producer Rob Shallcross (Chicken). Shallcross, a Juno award-winning engineer, is known for his handy work in the metal community (Gwar, Strapping Young Lad, Gene Hoglan, Meldrum), but after being approached for the project by Bear and listening to the demos, Shallcross saw the limitless potential of these two hidden gems and effected an immediate collaboration.

2010 – Best of Montreal – #3 Best Local Hip Hop Act – Montreal Mirror (Readership 287,000) – May 13 – Vol. 25 No. 47

“Covering their bases from über-danceable old school, uptempo, darker and grittier rap, slower jams and even forays into rock and dancehall, this breakout Montreal duo promise genuine skill.” – Montreal Mirror

“For Bricc and Drex, there’s a natural affinity for smooth and an obvious love for hip-hop. Bricc’s voice plays like a mix between Silkworm from Digable Planets, Q-Tip and Talib Kweli.” –  8/10 – Skunk Magazine

“If you have never heard about the Underground Realroad coming out of Montreal (the Real City) you need to put your ears to the street and inform yourself about this dynamic duo…

Their album “Slave to the Game” is off the chain, one of the best albums I have heard in the past two years.”   – 4.5/5 – Morburn-Music

“Underground Realroad’s track “Maybe” is one of the best songs I heard come out of Montreal in 2009.  Their production is creative and energetic.  The lyrics are direct with no compromise.” – DJ Solespin – Suite Delight – 1690AM – Montreal

“This is True Hip Hop” – DJ Prolifik – Hip Hop Hypnotique – CISM 89.3FM – Montreal

“What Underground Realroad, the fresh out of the box Hip Hop crew, has done with “Slave to the Game” is to create a space in the genre that captures messages across all classes.” – Soul Magazine

NEWS RELEASE

Montreal, QC – July 14, 2010

Special Ops Post Tour Diary Update!

With the completion of Special Ops‘ “Through The Heart of The Infidel” tour, the band has posted a tour diary update via their myspace blog.

Special Ops released their third studio album earlier this year on Vancouver label Thorny Bleeder Records. Just as the album was set to release and the band hit the road, they discovered long time friend and bassist Waldo Thornhill’s battle with cancer continued. Defying the odds and having replacements step in, Special Ops hit the road and gave fans across Canada and the States what they’ve been waiting for. Rocking tunes and a party to boot about!

*Fans wishing to send well wishes to Waldo can do so by emailing him at ops@opsmission.com.
