GHISLAIN POIRIER

The Montrealer joins the cabal of post-millennial artists seeking to explode musical conventions. Poirier's sound is a true polyglot, just like his bastardized French. Early LPs dabble in ambient and glitch, with hip-hop, ragga and grime arriving later, culminating in 2005'S Breakupdown and an opening spot on Lady Sovereign's North American tour.
