Artist description
"This is a one-man show. I love the club music here in NYC. It's so fresh and positive.
I started off doing gigs as a vocalist here but there is a part of me that enjoys instrumental music. I grew up listening to jazz, straight-ahead and fusion). I listened to a lot of funk and modern orchestra music as well. I'm so influence by todays creative genres. Hip-Hop, Trance, House are just to name a few. I wanted to make an album that capture all those styles by creating an original mix of all of them." |
