Influences:
My musical tastes lie in straight ahead jazz, contemporary jazz, R&B (mainly old skool). hip-hop (old skool), downtempo, deep house, electronica, dub, ska, breakbeat, nu jazz, trip-hop, brokenbeat,old soul, neo-soul,ambient , classical, new world, electro, two-step, garage house, techno, turntablism, reggae, rock, and gotta have gospel. The music I enjoy the most (outside of jazz) is often termed eclectic by most who know me.
I host a weekly (bi-weekly at the moment) podcast entitled The Sunday Soundtrack. The Sunday Soundtrack podcast is geared towards giving you an alternative listening experience to the standard Sunday afternoon commercial smooth jazz formatted programs and expose you to independent artists with tunes that provide that same smoothness, but in such genres as electronica, nu jazz, downtempo, experimental and the like. Please feel free to take a listen and leave comments, if u like: It can be found here
I've had the great opportunity record tracks on CD releases of two of the most talented artists I have personally come across. It was a sheer pleasure from start to finish and I'm happy I got the chance to share the gift He gave me in this way:
"Nothing Is Impossible"/ Linda Washington
"I Sing a New Song To The Lord"/ Derrick "Doc" Pearson
"Lord You Are My Everything"/ Derrick "Doc" Pearson
