HEROBUST
Otherwise known as Hayden Kramer, HeRobust is an electronic producer from Atlanta, Georgia. In the short, two year existence of HeRobust, Kramer’s hip-hop inspired bass music has quickly garnered the attention of online media giants such as XLR8R, Vice, The New York Times, and Huffington Post. 2012 has seen a relentless release of music from Herobust, one Saturate Records double album “Late Night/Morning After”, the self released “Rob & Hood” ep, a Muti Records release of “Screw Loose” ep, the recent "OG Status", countless free remixes including the ever-popular "BUSTED" series. The busy release schedule has paid off, getting his tracks played out by the likes of Skrillex and 12th Planet, receiving online support by Mad Decent, and a support tour for Opiou and Vibesquad. 2012 was just a jump off for Kramer as 2013 will see tons more music, shows, and genre defying madness from the ever prolific HeRobust.

Combining fluid melodies, sultry rhythms and hypnotic bass, Afro Monk uses lush yet cutting-edge electronic beats to create a smooth and sensual vibe.
