ABOUT FUTURE VINTAGE XO
The Intention of this work is to share my adventures thru the mediums of sound, multimedia, ethical fashion, creative events and international cultural exchange. From festivals to street performances, receptions to galleries, exclusive events to intimate venues Future Vintage XO serves cross genre art and sound. Dame Rashem Alexander Is an award winning producer/songwriter/instrumentalist/dj-entertainer, multi-discipline artist and the creator of the FUTURE VINTAGE XO concept. A main component of the inspiration is a deep love for travel. Alexander uses these experiences to shape expressions that crosses borders and cultures. The journey includes collaborations with independent record labels Underground Sun (Los Angeles), Curve/Universal (Toronto) Sound of Pop (Halifax NS). Placements with commercial entities like EMI Canada ( In The Groove Compilation), MuchVibe, & American Airlines to name a few.

The brand specializes in one of a kind shoes/bags exclusively for fans and friends that follow him. It has since evolved into much more. The leather apparel is handmade in Guatemala and ethically sourced world wide. Currently productions are scaled for exclusive events and international pop ups. This year we will be doing offerings in Toronto Canada, Zurich Switzerland and Bangkok Thailand. The foundation is the work with the local artisan community in Guatemala on the fabrications for over 10 years. Including using the proceeds for food relief programs to local families during holidays and natural disasters. he culture of family business and fair trade is the backbone of the fashion we create. From shoes and bags to couture urban-wear to upcycled hand painted mixed medium denim, FUTURE VINTAGE XO represents quality, creativity and unity.

Album Review,
Recording Artist Guild
This release is danceable and has, electric energy, vibrancy, vigor, loads of attention to detail, and plenty of character so you can listen to it more than once and still never get bored for a second.
And endlessly fun and addictive album release that pulls you away from your surroundings and lets you escape into a different world for a chunk of time.
