My guest today is Chris Martin, the founder of Post Office which is a music and creative audio production house and recording facility, located in Liberty Village, Toronto.

They’ve done work with Toronto Raptors, Ford, Saporro Beer, Vice's TV channel Viceland, Shoppers Drug Mart and on and on. I’m not interviewing the founder of Post Office because of their corporate work, he’s here today because I feel that Post Office has been the community hub and hotspot for arts and culture. They've had people like Boi-1da, Tona, Rich Kidd, Kayo, Chance The Rapper, Michael Christmas and so much more stop by.I talked to Chris Martin about his journey as a creative, the bumps he encountered starting his own studio, why community is important to him and so much more.

Today's episode is unlike any other podcast episodes that we recorded so we had to split it into two parts. Tona Tencreddi, is one third of Naturally Born Strangers and in my opinion, one of the premiere artists our country has to offer. He tells us about his upbringing in becoming the artist that he is today which includes a deep history of Toronto rap culture.We talk about his epic rap battle against Blake Carrington in Sauga, how one of his first big hits "Dial Tone" was made, what is it like working with Drake on the remix, and so much more.Each and every Wednesday we’ll be uploading a brand new interview with a guest we feel that you should know about.

I am very proud to present The Search which consists of Kayo Guevarra and Quake Matthews. I have known them for years. In 2010, they had their first project together released. But, they felt like they owed to their fans to do it again. So, this 2016 they released the album called “Lost & Found”.Kayo and Quake started the episode by sharing their funny yet unique experience performing for 16 people during the Medicine Hat show. They answered what is it like working together, how mistakes make us human, what keeps them going, and so much more. Also, there is a little treat for you guys near the end of the interview. So, make sure you listen to the full interview.Each and every Wednesday we’ll be uploading a brand new interview with a guest we feel that you should know about.
