Who could have predicted that an accidental MP3 upload would birth a phenomenon? Never having met in person, but electronically connected through common musical friends, producer Grahm Zilla and Nigerian-born rapper / vocalist Isis began Thunderheist to throw a wrench into static hip hop conventions and explore their love for the dancefloor. After touring steadily throughout North America and Europe for over two years and hunkering down in the studio for a good chunk of '08, "Toronto's shit-hot electro duo" (NME.com) drops the hotly anticipated Thunderheist. The chaotic energy of their early recordings and live shows is honed to a unique narrative of contemporary music that draws on established musical genres while venturing into uncharted territory. Thunderheist is far more than an electrorap act; grounded in hip hop, booty bass, and electro, they are also deeply in love with disco, pop, and R&B. With this arsenal of influences and hooks, the pair crafts a new definition of future pop music.
