.
Disc one explores everything from the bossa influenced "Again" - featuring New York vocalist/songwriter Ammawhat - to the r&b influenced track "Nothing Broken" featuring Detroit native Angel-A; and on to jazz influenced tracks "411" & "Reminisce", featuring Chicagoan Spike Rebel.

Disc two focuses on the genre that Vick Lavender is known for throughout the deep eclectic house music world. Four deep house jamz that explores his roots in jazz and Afro-Latin rhythms. Along with Justin Dillard they've created a seriously musical and dare-I-say sophisticated vibe. Tracks like "Herbie" & "Rise I Rise" are sure to become deep house classics.

Meanwhile "Flame" mirrors Vicks love for r&b with hints of jazz fusion. Listen loud. Listen over & over.
