C. G. Brown has been involved with music since childhood, as a listener, player, composer, selector, tastemaker and DJ. A life-long love of jazz led him to follow its descendants of fusion, hip-hop, broken beat, and electronic music, and eventually to step behind the turntables in 2001, and behind the production boards a few years later.  As a former resident of P’cheen and of the landmark W Hotel in downtown Atlanta, he has constructed a style that gives a nod to the trendy pop energy of today’s music while still leaving its heart in soulful, globally influenced broken beat and electronic sounds. 

As of 2020, Brown is primarily exploring live music, songwriting, and composition, working with musicians to produce genre-defying sounds rooted in 80s baby influences and futuristic ideas.

Avid collector of sounds and inspirations. Multi-genres, not too interested in Top 40, never have been. Underground.

Christina Springer has used text, dance, theatre, film and other visual expressions for over 25 years.  My artwork has slowly revealed my many layered identity.  Thematically or by blending genres, a consistent theme has emerged.   How and why do we perform ourselves on a daily basis?  In any situation a person can be a: worker, color, parent, gender, artist, class, friend, educational level, lover.  At all times, the layers of our identity overlap.  In any human encounter, our identity intersects and/or bounces off the other people’s. In any given context, whether consciously or unconsciously, everyone makes assumptions, acts on opinions or performs behavior scripted by their personal narrative.
