about

Raw chocolate and many late-night, drug-infused, vinyl-listening sessions brought them together.

They were good listeners.
They told good stories.
They told good jokes.
They always had time for a snack and a smoke.

From the living room floor, each tune began without a plan.

Maybe someone would have some chords in mind.

The tempo and the feel developed as they traveled together.

It was a conversational approach.

Greg laying down voice and guitar.

Derek adding bass, loops, rhodes and casio echoings.

Bryan bringing sax, flute and piano radiance to the flow.

Justin recording everything direct to cassette, making it eternal.

Over the course of several sessions spanning from 2017 to 2019, a deep collection of jams were etched. The selections on Vol 1 reveal the improvisatory journey from Anandamide, Justin’s now evolved chocolate shop on Long Beach’s Retro-Row, to Glitter Island, Derek’s living room studio on Florida Street, just a few blocks down. It's a journey without a destination, only to be felt and realized in each moment.

Welcome.

Words by Jonathan Ross
