notes

The Grooveblaster is living proof that the end
justifies the means. Whether it's going head-to-
head on the ones and twos with collaborators,
riding the pause button on an old analog 4-track
to create a fly loop with the human factor, or
keying in the ill echo chamber chill, the
Grooveblaster makes 'tricknology' work.

With the ears of a fan and the reflexes of a
musician (the Grooveblaster began his musical
career as a bassist), the Grooveblaster colors
way outside the lines set by the parochial, the
genre fixated and the weak-minded, but he
knows the rules so when he breaks 'em it's on.
His rhythms and melodies are rooted in
cosmopolitan pop and downtempo grooves,
so it's hard to tell where 'song' ends and
'version' begins, where message ends and music
begins, where agony ends and ecstasy kicks in.

    Imagine your at a fantastic social affair and you look your absolute best. You meet all the right people, say all the right things, you've got all the right moves, your on point and at the top of your game, this album would be the soundtrack to that experince! A truly classic album.

    A mixture of laid back jazz influenced grooves, funked up beats and soulful vocal samples... look in the mirror and dig yourself makes you feel like you're taking a glorious retro trip through a 70's movie soundtrack. He's known as The Grooveblaster for good reason. Perfect summer listening and highly recommended.
