Rachael Kinsey’s passion for art began as a young child evolving into a career after graduating Art School. She has spent the past 9 years in Hawaii and San Francisco pursuing careers in visual merchandising, event + floral design, interior design and running her own jewelry company, Rachael Kinsey Designs. After immersing herself in yoga 14 years ago, yoga became a guide in her creative process. She believes we are able to foster our creative skills by connecting our mind, body and spirit.

She just recently launched a DIY + Wellness Workshops business, Project Social- a community driven organization for adults and children to hold space for creative exploration through the DIY experience.

Cameron Tinklenberg aka ALLIN. is releasing his second EP – “Lossy Matte” – a record that’s lush, effusive, chaotic, and introspective in equal measure. The record finds ALLIN. carving out a unique space amongst the litany of jazz- inflected electronic producers. “Lossy Matte” juxtaposes the textures and emptiness one encounters on a blank canvas with the playful distortions of digital compression; inviting us to explore our own self-image in the spaces in-between.

ALLIN’s last EP, “Ambedo Sessions”, was self-released in the Spring of 2018. The album was said to incorporate the rich synth textures of Flume with slouching Dilla-esque beats. Hailing from the wetlands of North Carolina, Tinklenberg has opened up for hip-hop artists such as Lupe Fiasco, CeeLo Green, Nappy Roots, J-Swiss, Wordsworth, and others. He has also played alongside prominent jazz musicians such as Herman Burney, Delfeayo Marsalis, and Joe Chambers. He was the co-founder of The Coastal Collective, Temple5, the Valedictorians, all which are well known NC-based jazz/hip-hop groups. He also co-founded the Beats & Coffee record label, which produces a steady flow of blissed-out study beats.

Tinklenberg now resides in Toronto, Ontario, where he’s been studying music technology and digital media development. The fast-passed mashup of scenes and ideas has quietly transformed his music practice. As he continues to immerse himself into the ever changing musical environment that is Toronto, his compositional sense seems to have shifted into a more diverse and broad palette. Tinklenberg’s newest work is itself a testament to his ongoing change and growth.
