Dubstep is already future roots music and the voice of the underground in many places in the world. Pharaoh and The Salvation Army are battling in the Brooklyn front in this campaign for saving people's souls. This young Dj and Producer was raised in the heart of the Venezuelan Hip-Hop scene. At the age of 18 he was producing and touring with Venezuela's most important Hip-Hop band Tres DueƱos, under the name Venny Blanco from Caracas. Now living in one of last surviving boroughs in New York City, he and his band of brothers Todosantos and Now that's what I call a party are giving people a new and exciting alternative in underground dance music. Pharaoh puts together and outstanding audiovisual live performance combining Dubstep with 4x4 Garage, Electro and hip-hop, together with live visuals show by Peach* (Todosantos / The Salvation Army / Now that's what I call a party), creating a whole new way of hearing and seeing the sounds and colors of the future. Pharaoh is preparing his first release for the end of year with Philly's hottest dance record label Flamin hotz, and behind The Salvation Army Shield.
