Welcome to Galactic Jazz...

I thought long and hard about how to kick off this galactic journey.. and after much thought and deliberation there was only one way...

Dropping bombs on this brand new venture into the unknown I am extremely proud to present my close friends and home town team from Wellington, NZ.

Electric Wire Hustle.

If you haven't heard about them yet open those flappy head extensions of yours and listen up!

Headed off by multi-instrumentalist/beatmaker David 'TaayNinh' Wright who has collab'd with such heads as Flying Lotus, Waajeed, Oddisee, Maceo Jones and many others as well as being co-founder of another amazing jazz/funk/soul collective Solaa. One of the nicest dudes you will ever met. Honest.

Gracing the microphone the silky sounds of Mara TK. Damn. He is cropping up every where recently (peep Julien Dyne/Pacific Heights/Isaac Aesili) and for a damn good reason.. just listen. Really there is not to much else I can write about Mara, let your ears explain. A deep soul with amazing lyrical content.

On the sticks is Myele Manzanza. Playing since he was 14, the boy got ill rhythm. I first heard Myele playing with Olmecha Supreme and damn.. sold. He is super good at getting that live kit to sound like choppy MPC breaks. Putting the boom back in boom bap.

And pouring the production glue allover this musical cocktail is my main man Benny Tones. Benny has ears. Two off them. Perfectly formed, well trained and pin point accurate. Benny runs the desks live and rides the levels in the studio. If your looking for that sound.. look no further. And then just you wait for his second album in 2010. HEAT.

Altogether EWH are the next levels, level. Deep. Soul. Future. Galactic Jazz.
