Vancouver based bass duo Pigeon Hole have been absolutely tearing up the experimental realms of electronic music for the past 2 years, but they weren’t always frequenters of the wubs. Before 2011, Leo Napthine and Colin McCue started off their careers as members of the hip hop collective Sweatshop Union, a fellow Canadian-based group that prided itself on showcasing up…
