My studio sessions are playing original hard swinging Hard Bop, with occasional pieces that merge the swing of Hard Bop, with the funkiness of Soul Jazz, as well as Hip-Hop Jazz sessions, with talented musicians, Spoken-Word Poets / M.C.'s, n the great studios of New York City.

Whenever I have a break from practicing my studio set lists, I'm staying sharp with all Jazz standards, and my Hip-Hop" breakbeat chops, that I often incorporate slickly, into my Hard Bop and Soul Jazz swing, and of course my live instrumentation Hip-Hop Jazz sessions.
