akai samplers galore and crusty big beats took me on a darker journey making this track. originally called 'peel street' but since it resulted in a very hard render I changed the title to something more psychological.

enjoy.

Keora now on Soundcloud

Recorded in 2004 before my 1st daughter Emma Keora was born. We named her Keora after a tree that's resilient to drought. We love that symbol of strength and perseverance.

I always loved the music of Manchester UK back in the 90s. David Bowie, The Smiths, New Order, Electronic, The Other Two, A Guy called Gerald and especially the innovated dream creators 808 State.

This track is a heartfelt love letter to Manchester and how I longed so much to be a part of it one day. Sonic and foggy travelogue of the Hacienda night club during the 90s. Free your mind... feel the vibes... live and direct... in the area....

Kotupa

A little test I did using a brilliantly fun music app called 'Figure' by Propellerhead (makers of Reason and the infamous ReBirth acid house virual 303+808+909 software)

Kotupa is the result of hours really pushing the app and seeing what can come out of it. I'm totally sold.. it's a great tool for generating grooves and it has a nice interactive chromatic note spread layout that makes creating music sound really good and always in the right key.

N-Joi!!!
