You can expect tunes form their most recent EP 'Earth Punk' blended in with the soundscapes reminiscent of their Pasifika Heritage.

SKILAA: Based in Tāmaki Makaurau, SKILAA make hybrid Neo Soul Hip Hop Alternative music with a blend of RnB and close balkan-style melismatic vocal harmonies. Full of folklore imagery, pyrotechnic vocals and ornate grooves.

Leaping Tiger: Taking inspiration from artists such as Flume, Flying Lotus, Arca, Toro Y Moi and Thundercat to name a few, he has used his eclectic foundations to forge a unique sound blending the genres of Electronic, Alternative, Hip Hop and RnB ever since the release of his ‘Cool Down’ EP in 2018.
