The Toronto-based duo of TWO LEFT, comprised of KORCE and KAYNOSE (cousins Tosh and Kit Weyman) bring an undeniable chemistry to their music. The two possess a connection that is apparent both on stage performing, and when creating in the studio.
One could almost say that Two Left has been a project in the making for all 21 years of these young artists’ lives. Much of their musical connection can be attributed to having grown up in a close-knit extended family, living only a few blocks away from each other. In fact, as little tykes, the two cousins lived in the same house for a time. Back then, even though Korce wasn’t making beats with his rattle while Kaynose spat something over top (literally), their strong bond was apparent. This connection was further solidified with their discovery of Hip Hop, and more importantly, what they were able to do with it.
Initially, the idea of making music as a group was not a pursuit. Instead, the two spent their time freestyling to any instrumental tracks they could find, practicing and honing their lyrical skills. Gradually, they began writing verses down, slowly gaining interest in what they could do as an organized group. Although happy to use any beat to rap on, they wanted something of their own to begin writing original songs. This idea was realized when Korce got his hands on a free copy of Pro Tools. He looped a simple 8 bar sample from “Pachabel’s Canon” over a Slum Village drum line. The beat was by no means impressive, but it was their own, and it opened a whole new door.
Since then, both Korce and Kaynose have been on the grind, experimenting with and formulating their unique sound over the past 3 years. Although tapping into many early hip hop influences including The Roots, Reflection Eternal, Pete Rock, J Dilla, Common, Mos Def, Nas, Atmosphere, and The Pharcyde, Two Left’s style is hard to parallel. Bringing a musicality rarely heard in most hip hop, the sound of Two Left combines live saxophone, head nodding drums, and distinct samples with mind lifting lyrics and soulful female vocal features. This multi layered sound and dynamic, along with their wild djembe drumming interludes, has made Two Left notorious for their innovative live performances.
With a background in acting, the duo grasp the true meaning of engaging stage presence, and consistently win the crowd over with their fun, energetic and passion filled show.
In November 2006, powered by Korce’s signature production style and navigated by Kaynose’s lyric and design, TWO LEFT dropped their debut album. PUT UP THE TWO is a culmination of music spanning all the way from where they began, to where they are today; leaving you wondering where they are headed for the future...
