NEKURA* on NEKURA*

The overlord of Intent To Harm, Nekura* has been torturing souls since 1996. Starting only as a DJ, he focused on playing the most malicious tracks he could dig up. After three years of assassinating arenas across Canada and
the U.S., he turned his focus to production. Always feeling that there were only a few producers that shared a similar taste for aural violence (Dylan, Tech Itch, Dom & Roland, and recently, Kryptic Minds, Leon Switch, John Rolodex), he wanted to express his hatred for the mundane and ordinary in his own way.

The rage is expressed well in tracks such as "Making You Bleed" and "Macabre" (slated for release in the near future) as well as when he gets behind the turntables.

Sample the hostility at Intent To Harm (www.intenttoharm.com) and Iso:lation Tank (www.iso-tank.com), or witness the brutality, live, Tuesdays from 6:30pm to 8:30pm EST Eastern Standard Time (GMT -5), on JungleTrain
