Sounds Like: Boo's current sound is a fusion of deep soulful melodic House music, with a jazzy vibe. He has produced hard hitting bass kickin techy tracks when using his alias' Moonman or Mandrake. As for Willie Snickers, the sound is more and combination of Deep House and Jazz with a stompy feel to keep any die hard fan satisfied.
