about
"Melding classical piano, some rad snythes & beats, he has created a tropical oasis. I need a blue Hawaiian and the sound of waves in the background stat. This music has <3 + passion = what next?"
"Ooh this is quite sumptuously - dinky and disarming...shades of Fort Dax’s ‘like cream in your spine’ swirling curvaceously amid an orbiting cosmic west coast breeze...wherein the harmonic forever golden sound of the Beach Boys interweaves with the chilled milky way groove of a ‘cobra and phases’ era Stereolab."
Trumpeter Russ Johnson & some of Chicago's top improvisers slink from contemplative to funky, difficult to swingin'. Bandcamp New & Notable May 6, 2014
The six songs on this record combine the brass-heavy sounds of jazz and afrobeat with pulsing dance beats to intoxicating effect. Bandcamp New & Notable Jul 25, 2020
