Based in New York City, Ervin L. Robinson, Jr.—also known as E-Truf—was born in the Bronx on June 18th, 1987.

Early on, he started dancing and playing musical instruments, however, his first taste of music was in elementary school. He was very eager to perform at his school’s talent shows every year.

E-Truf’s tumultuous life influenced his love of music. At the age of five, he lost his mother as well as, a victim of physical and sexual abuse before having to go into foster care. At this point, E-Truf found the love of music to help him escape reality and always hoped to be able to share his story with the world through his creativity.

Despite being heavily influenced by Hip-Hop and R&B, E-Truf’s musical stylings are diverse. E-Truf’s music is very complicated because everything comes from a special place in his heart and is delivered in such a truthful and cutthroat demeanor. He wants others to experience his emotions by speaking about pain, sorrow, loneliness, and social occurrences happening in the world. Through his music, he wants people to see there is a light at the end of the tunnel, one must work hard to get there.

Much of his influences comes from his son, Greyson, who was born May 20th, 2017. Artist like Biggie, 2 Pac, Nas, Eminem, Mase, Prodigy, J Cole, Rakim also inspire E-Truf’s sound. E-Truf admires music producers such as Timbaland, (Dr.) Dre, Pharrell and Swizz Beatz. Lastly, his father plays a pivotal role because E-Truf promised himself he would never be anything like his father; this acts as strong motivation to change his future.

So far, E-Truf has only one official instrumental he created—titled “Altered State”—that can be found on Spotify, Apple Music, iTunes, Google Play, Pandora, and iHeartRadio. People can search for E-Truf’s music on any one of these platforms. The last show E-Truf performed was in 2008 in a contest for American Blast Energy drink where he won second place.

He is currently working on recording his first official 10-track EP.
He is the C.E.O of his production company where he creates, mixes and masters his own music, and is managing and producing an artist named A Live. He is currently a student at Full Sail University for his Bachelors in Science for Audio Productions. E-Truf will also be doing a 1-hour radio show called “What’s Up Full Sail” on the school’s radio station.

These recordings are conversations I had with my Ex boyfriend who is narcissistic as FUCK! This is how I got past the anger, pain, and resentment towards him! He would actually be laughing himself. Some of this shit is comedic. Enjoy! Take notes!

We're not the best, but we're pretty good.

BIO:

Cindel grew up in the birthplace of House music surrounded by the four on the floor and the music that emanated from the basements on the South Side and the cultural legacy of clubs like the Warehouse. If you have not guessed it, we are talking about the historic influences bequeathed by the originators Frankie Knuckles, Ron Hardy and Paul Johnson in the Windy City of Chicago.
This is where House found a home and from that nascent rising it has spawned genres that have gone to circle the globe. In recent times, it is the tribal richness of Afro House that has been creating waves in the underground scene, and DJ Producer Cindel is one of those rare talents who is able to bring all its elements together to deliver extraordinary textures of beats, rhythms, and melodies.
A wizard behind the decks, his fluid approach to mixing breathes life into the dancefloor as he takes his audiences on a never-ending journey learnt through a 20-year career in the game. Known as The King of Drums, he owes the very essence of that title to his Puerto Rican heritage. The flamboyance of that genetic imprint is writ large in his character and he is in high demand globally for that magic dust he sprinkles on the turntables. 
From supporting icons of the industry such as Chus & Ceballos during Pride NYC at the Pier Dance to playing in Tokyo, Korea, Brazil, Colombia, Chile, Great Britain and much of Europe, Canada, Mexico and coast to coast in the USA, his sets are renowned for their electrifying and mesmerising blends and song selection.
Complimenting that insatiable desire to deliver impeccable music, Cindel has also been immersed in the studio to create tracks that set a new standard on the Afro scene. Inspired by producers Danny Tenaglia, Oscar G, Robbie Rivera, Ninetoes, Monkey Safari, Cloone and many more, his releases have consistently shaped the night in a melange of sounds that not only pays tribute to those icons but which also break new ground.
That crossing of boundaries reached new heights with the release of a four track EP in 2024 titled Melodia, with its lead single Astronaut appearing in the Beatport charts. His follow up track in January 2025 Too Far Gone will further enhance his worthy reputation, and with more releases in the pipeline, Cindel is destined to transition from his LGBTQIA+ community into the mainstream with consummate ease.
