Sounds Like: House music - quirky, jackin stuff, jazzy stuff, deep stuff, bootlegs, its all good.
i collect lots of disco, funk, downtempo, broken beat, random electronica, party jams, 80's, 90's .. pretty much any music that influences me, I incorporate into my sets. Being a native and a lifetime resident of New Orleans has greatly influenced me, for it is a city that both celebrates and cries with music. . I give in to the influence even more by doing (usually improvised) sets with other local musicians whenever possible.. live congas? Word. Live sax? Hell yes.
Type of Label: Indie
