This is one of our favorite releases of the year - and lucky us got to help manufacture and distribute it. Mike is a fantastic sax player and is one of the most streamed Jazz artists on Spotify, Amazon, Apple, etc. Even Kareem Abdul-Jabbar gave the track "Universal Gratitude" a shout out in his Substack blog. Give Mike a shot and BUY THIS RECORD - Mike is 100% Fully Indie!!!

Originally his masters thesis while studying at Berklee's selective Valencia Spain campus in 2019 & premiered live at Spain's national concert hall Auditori Nacional, 'Valencia' showcases him moving far beyond the polar opposite sax/bass/drums trio & electronic/hip hop formats into expansive, cinematic, global acoustic fusion.

Calling this album simply "Jazz" would be limiting: it's a forward thinking, multi-genre, multicultural experience created by an artist who is trained in jazz, but who fully absorbed a specific, inspiring environment and period of time abroad into his heart & soul, seeking to unify across geography & genre.
