Stealing thunder so you move that ass, the duo dubbed Thunderheist unleashes serious electrocrunk boom bap. Ribcage rattling bass breaks laced with proper rhyming are flipped with digital booty bass, 80s-inspired electronic pop, and slowed down Southern bounce, all fresh dipped in serious swagger.

Dancefloors get loose when Thunderheist reigns. Tunes like "Bubblegum', 'Suenos Dulces' and 'Horny' get bodies bumping. Music blogs light up with repostings the moment they post a new tune. DJs from all over the world drop them in the mix. Press has come knocking, based on the smiling, sweaty faces coming out of TH jam. Audiences for live shows keep growing as word spreads. Simply put, they get lotsa love. The lady runs the mic, and her name is Isis. This Nigerian-born, Canadian-raised emcee has shared stages with a wide range of hip hop heavyweights like Bahamadia, Vast Aire (Def Jux), M1 (Dead Prez), Tumi and the Volume (District Six), and even rap crossover phenomenon T.I. Her skills, focus and drive landed her an invitation to perform at the celebrated 'Show Time at the Apollo' in 2006, gaining a fan in DJ Kool Herc. Fast-forward a few months and she's spitting into mics on a cross-Canada Tour, culminating in an unforgettable show at Montreal's International Jazz Festival in front of a crowd of 5000. Hard-hitting rhythms are courtesy of Grahmzilla, the incredible versatile producer & DJ twisting up the low end on the beats and in the mix. Inspired by a serious addiction to vinyl for the better part of 15 years with a collection including electro, jazz, hip hop, funk, techno, rock and pop, his production work can't help going straight for the jugular. Not surprising, given that he's rocked the decks with acts ranging from Prodigy, Herbaliser, Coldcut and the X-Ecutioners, to Kid Koala, DJ Food, DJ Vadim, Jurassic 5, J-Live, to Chromeo, Flosstradamus, and Plastic Little.
