The social media presence and game of Vancouver based photographer Brandon Artis is undeniable. Shooting for Daily Hive Vancouver, Blueprint Events, Monstercat, on top all his side work, Brandon is basically a household name to anyone who spends their fair share of time on social media.
In addition to all of these local credentials Brandon’s work has been making it’s way to international outlets more and more. One of the most notable for it’s culture, and viewership, Hype Beast. The quality, regularity and sheer quantity of Brandons portfolio has such a wide array of influence on the Vancouver scene that his style is more and more one that shapes the city.
To kick off the return of our exclusive playlist series Brandon compiled “a proper selection of current and rotating tracks I listen to while editing or just hanging out — some new, some old.” There is a heavy presence of Vancouver producers through the Hip Hop themed list.
The request was made to have Erick The Architect’s ‘Love Shawty’ kick things off as it’s been one of those tracks you always go back to for Brandon. “Then for the closing track ‘Lifestyles’ by Heroshe, the homie – he’s family, the entire ‘Jukes from the 6‘ project start to finish is a masterpiece.
Hit that play key and get your head bopping to a few of the sounds circulating in Vancouver. Be sure to also support Brandon on his socials (linked below) is you haven’t already.
