BIOGRAPHY:
OBUXUM is a Toronto based Somali-Canadian producer and beat maker, whose lush and characteristic sound celebrates story telling.

Her full length LP titled Re-Birth is set for release on Friday August 23th via URBNET. The anticipated follow up to her 2018 H.E.R. EP represents a time of transition of growth. You can hear the vulnerability. The freedom from inhibitions.

In speaking to what we can expect from the sound OBUXUM tells us,

“Each Song means something different, whether it is a life-lesson or a note to upcoming black womxn artists. I have a willingness to always experiment, and create small worlds of their own, that have their own meanings. I am not a fixed artist; you can never expect one kind of sound from me.”

New experiences bring forth a new kind of sound. With Re-Birth, OBUXUM plays with elements of house and techno, while still carrying through an alternative blend of hip hop.

She has made her presence known with notable festival performances at MUTEK Montreal, Wavelength Festival, Kazoo! Fest, Toronto PRIDE, Electric Eclectics, and Venus Fest. NOW Magazine also included her in their list of Toronto electronic musicians to watch in 2018.
