A night of great hip-hop featuring some of the very best from the NW. DJ Klyph is proud to present as a part of the Portland Institute for Contemporary Art #TBA16 festival WTTN Live! featuring:
DJ set from Milton Campbell aka Ohmega Watts:
Producing since 1997 and MCing since 1993 the Ohmega Watts resume includes two solo records on Ubiquity Records, The Find (2005) and Watts Happening (2007). MC/producer of the group Lightheaded (Tres Records) and a 7" under the name M64, which was comprised of Ohmega on production and Ragen Fykes on the vocals, released on Record Breakin (2009.) Ohmega is also an avid DJ who has toured extensively in the U.S. and abroad including Australia, the E.U. and Japan all the while expanding his record collection, and musical influences. He's performed, DJ'd alongside and supported artists/bands including: Galactic, Lifesavas, The Breakestra, De La Soul, Quantic, Mark de Clive-Lowe, Waajeed, Ge-Ology, Kon & Amir, DJ Spinna, Bobbito Garcia, Rich Medina, Cosmo Baker, and the list goes on. He's also a freelance Graphic Designer/Photographer making him a full-time creative.
Brookfield Duece:
Brookfield Duece arrived on the hip-hop scene in the early 2000's as Duece, a 20 year old rapper whose style provided a chilled, lyrical, storytelling alternative to the rising street dance influenced sound controlling the Bay Area. With soul samples, 808 drums, and funk strings under detailed lyrical ability taught to him by his late cousin Eugene Vasquez from Rochester, NY, Duece brought a message in every song while having both a west and east coast feel. Being the best of both worlds in style put Duece on the frontline in re building an underground hip-hop subculture for the Bay Area.
In 2016, Duece moved from Oakland to Portland to engage with his heaviest fanbase area while continuing to record and build for a debut mainstream release. Continue to look for new things from this artist in 2016
MATTY:
Considered one of the most consistent and talented artists in the Northwest region, MATTY has solidified his reputation through 7 albums and 10 projects total over 7 years. Following his debut album in 2009, MATTY has had an incredible streak of releases, tours and content. A dominant force on stage, his cleaver lyrics, smooth flow and raw talent has allowed him to share the stage with some of the industries best. E-40, Twista, Kid Ink, Too Short, Tech N9ne and a plethora of others, it's easy to say that MATTY has a consistent track record in the studio and on stage.
His networking ability is one of his strongest traits working with producers and other artists from all over the world including Portland heavy hitter's Illmaculate, HANiF, Mic Capes and Tope along with out of state artists such as Mistah F.A.B, Marv Won and Chase Moore.
Beat set by the one and only TROX Diesel:
Samuel Troxel, bka Trox, is a Portland bred and based producer and DJ. His introduction to music started with taking drum lessons during the 2nd grade and eventually graduating to downloading an early version of Fruity Loops in middle school. In addition to working with almost every Northwest heavyweight, he has also crafted tracks for 50 Cent, Ab-Soul, Royce 5'9" and more. He currently is in the process of releasing his collaborative project with Ty Farris titled Room 39.
