biographical info

Jacob Cino - founder of the Third Eye Tribe, a sonic collision where infectious beats, heavy basslines and smooth vocal stylings meet. Tearing pages from the books of Massive Attack, Mad Professor, and Roots Manuva, Cino creates a brand new book, using his own unique language and musical blueprint. The project, born as a vehicle for Cino to perform his original compositions, evolved into a collaborative effort including producer Mazeguider aka Da Tripmaster, hip hop MC Ndidi Cascade, dancelhall artist Bounty Hunter and master violinist Kytami. The new moniker "Tribe Of One" represents the renewal of the solo relationship between Cino and his gear. Cino fuels his audience with his lyrical drive-bys of socially conscious rhymes, and a production quality that has led some to tag him "The Audio-alchemist". His original music is almost always mixed into his sets, and enables Cino to be considered one of the few true multi-genre DJ’s on the West Coast. His collaborations with a diverse array of artists represents both the sonic breadth of Cino’s skills and his ability to speak different musical languages. He has co-written tracks with Kinnie Starr and Kevin Key (Skinny Puppy), has performed on records by King Kobb Steelie and Kinnie Starr, and has remixed tracks for numerous artists, including Bounty Hunta & The Mutineers (turning dancehall into jungle) and Che:Chapter 127 (turning hardcore into fierce drum n’ bass).
