Influences: Basically hot jazz from the 30's ans 40's I listened at home since I came up to this world and naturally contemporain pop/rock music I listen since teenage. Then my interest went to discovering all that happened beetwin these two periods coming directly from the jazz root; be bop, modern jazz, acid jazz, funk, fusion, r&b, hip-hop.
