Artists Performing:

Zaki Ibrahim

Described as “a retro-Afrofuturist vision sending listeners on a journey through 40 years of electronic music” (Nuvo), Ibrahim’s music brings elements of spoken word, hip hop, soul, house and 70s pop together, filtered through the prismatic and often contradictory lenses of personal, historical and scientific relativities. Even the concept of diaspora seems to fall short of capturing the vivid vibrational multitudes of Ibrahim’s scope.

The Five and Tens

The Five and Tens are the official studio band for the Mississauga indie record label VR Recordings formed in 2015. Inspired by labels like Motown, Stax, Daptone and Colemine Records they embody the same DIY spirit and work ethos crafting soul and funk records.
