Tha Striker is an alias for R&B/dance producer Dar E., who hails from the birthplace of house music, Chicago. This producer, remixer, songwriter, multi-percussionist, keyboardist and -- if that's not enough -- CEO of Inner City Groove Records, has been on the underground music scene since Inner City Groove's first release in 1995, the dance/pop maxi-single "More Love" by Giovanni Blue.After the release of "More Love", the demands of being a working percussionist, playing on live and studio projects ranging from R&B to dance to jazz, temporarily sidetracked Dar from his initial focus of releasing records."Eventually," said Dar, "my creative juices began to get the best of me and I decided it was time to get off the bench and back into the game of making records. I could always go back to being a player."In 1999, Tha Striker produced Giovanni Blue's follow-up, the maxi-single "Get With U", which garnered local radio and club play, and got a lot of love from the steppers."In 2002, while working in the studio," said Dar, "I came up with a danceable, funky idea. I was so excited that I let a few friends hear it and they said I should release it." The result was "Shoo B Do". The record did well in Chicago, and took Detroit's underground music scene by storm.Now, after a brief hiatus from the game, he's back. He has been in the studio working on various projects for the '07. music layout @ HOT FreeLayouts.com
