PNC

Rapper Sam Hansen, a.k.a. PNC, wears his hometown on his sleeve, having taken his acronymic alias from 'Palmerston North City'. It was from Palmy that a young Hansen attracted the attention of Breakin Wreckwordz, an independent hip hop collective he went on to join, before jumping ship to Dirty Records.

After 10 years of label affiliations, PNC is going it alone on his latest album, The Codes - and drawing new EDM influences into the mix. Ahead of the release, Sam Wicks talks with PNC about the early days.
