There is no possible way to describe the feelings that went through my body the first time I listened to my hubby's first EP. All biased opinions aside it is incredible! He first got the test press about a month or 2 ago. Then a little while later the EP arrived. It was one fri afternoon and I had decided to surprise him with a visit (since I rarely truck it out to Fat Beats anymore). Of course he was ecstatic to see me but he might have been more ecstatic that the EP actually came in. He is very humble and never likes me to play his music when he is around.. although I never listen and play it anyway.. This time was different. As soon as I asked to see the EP the smile that took over his face was undeniably the most precious gift ever. I then held the record in my hand for the first time and I swear it was feeling that you get only a few times in your life. I am assuming it is close to when you get to hold your baby for the first time. (I know this bc this is how I felt when I first held Suri). I then asked if I could listen to it. It took Jim a minute to actually allow this but once he caved in it was as if I was in a whole new world. He walked over the turn tables, gently placed the record down and needle is now on record. zzerpp erra eraaa (those are my dj scratchin' noises) From the first note on I can hardly describe the feeling in one word but I will say this. Tears flooded my eyes with happiness, as the bass kicked in I felt it in my veins, the soulful voices soothed my mind and the adrenaline went straight to my heart. It was incredible all these feelings at once, there is no one word to describe it but simply AMAZING. I can only say how proud I am of my hubby for being who he is, believing in himself and following his dream. He is someone I will look up to for the rest of my life.
I Love You JV!!

J57 "Digital Society" Instrumental EP [Vinyl]
Balanced Records (Groove & Fat Beats Distribution)
"Long Island/Brooklyn native, J57 illustrates warm synth melodies washing through tight beats and subtle textures on Digital Society, an anthemic electronic hip-hop soundtrack. Infusing his production with hip-hop, soul, glitch, and countless other influences, J57 has a masterful ear and an unerring drive to his beats. Using precision and clarity for this freshman solo album, J57 draws contributions from Digga Jefferson Price on keys and vocals, Jordan Usatch on guitar and lyrical shading by Soul Khan of Brown Bag AllStars fame. Additionally, Deejay Element and Juno Award winner DJ Brace stamp their respective marks with nimble fingers."
