Pete Miser (real name, Pete Ho) is a fiercely independent m.c. who has been rocking all forms of hip hop expression since 1985. A native of Portland, Oregon, Pete fronted and managed the Northwest's most prominent hip hop band, 5 Fingers of Funk, touring the nation and performing with acts such as Maceo Parker, the Roots and Run DMC. It was during this time that Pete created Ho-Made Media, his one man independent record label that released both 5 Fingers of Funk releases and Pete's 1996 solo album, "What It Be" for combined sales of over 20,000 units. After six years with 5 Fingers of Funk and the Northwest region on lock, Pete made a move to New York to immerse himself in hip hop culture in its birthplace.
Upon relocating to the East Coast, Pete was recruited by Multi-platinum Arista recording artist, Dido as the dj in her seven-piece band. With Dido, Pete toured the United States Europe, Australia, Japan and New Zealand. He has appeared on The Tonight Show, Late Night with David Letterman, Top of The Pops and the European MTV Awards alongside such acts as Jay-Z, Sting and the Gorillaz.
Pete continues to live in New York where he records and performs his music. In addition to his own work, Pete writes and produces projects for a wide variety of artists from underground hip hop m.c.s such as the 6th Sense to new wave legends, the Cure.
Pete's love of film has led to his scoring some very cool indie films and documentaries; most recently "In 500 Words Or Less" and "Through The Fire" as well as contributing source music to many other film projects.
