Decline is getting ready to release a full length project by the name of
Dirty Birds - Expected Develop; a collection of progressive instrumentals intertwined through featured guest spots from some of  Western Canada's finest. This album will draw from the influences of samples and live instrumentation, of which will be released on Olive Hour Records  in the Summer of 2007 .

Decline has been hard at work over the past 5 years.  With Calgary famous for it's lack of  recreation and entertainment for the average teenager, and a debilitating injury at hand,  Decline utilized the solitude of 9 weeks to teach himself how to produce and create hip-hop of his liking.Growth and notoriety came quickly with the formation of Internal Affairs, a socio-political hip hop outfit, comprised of 2 emcees, Concept and Homage. Together they released two albums that were received quite well throughout the country. The group found itself touring across Canada on the strength of these releases and its live show became a staple of Calgary's music scene with the addition of a live band accompanying them on stage.

Sharing the stage with indie rap heroes such as Everlast,  Buck 65,
Abstract Rude, The Shapeshifters, Sweatshop Union and Pigeon John,  Decline found himself opening his music to an audience unlike ever imagined.  This led to albums such as; The Other Side Of The Moon and Firearms Quartet,  production on releases by a number of solid releases by west coast artists,  and as well as playing at events such as the Shambhala Music Festival, Cirque du Soleil's Varekai appearance in Vancouver, United Nation's Day of Celebration and Much Music's 'Going Coastal".

Decline continues to perfect his craft, recently relocating from Calgary to Vancouver to attend The Stylus School Of Music. Being in Vancouver has already allowed him to collaborate with established members of the city's hip hop community, as well as catching wind of opportunities abroad. That said, when hip hop is looked at more or less as a marketing tool and a pop culture icon for todays market, Decline stays motivated to find new and innovative ways to bend genres and create a melting pot of sounds and expressions for his listeners to hear.
