Short overview of Coco Davis
Old Haunts, Coco Davis’s debut LP, subtly dismantles and rearranges a collection of early “revenge blues” classics into a contemporary travelogue of witty and ghoulish tales. Shorn of the musical cliches that beset the blues genre, Old Haunts is one for storytellers, an imaginative realm of runaways, night-owls and bad girls.The lyrics of an old blues tune take on a fresh longing when placed in the languid company of filmic synthesizers, razor sharp slide guitar and sultry baritone sax. “Old Haunts is smart, spooky, funny, and at times, funky as anything”, said Nick Bollinger on Radio New Zealand.

It’s an assured statement of purpose from a singer with a fast-growing reputation on the NZ scene, judiciously reinterpreting the vivid tales of Bessie Smith, Lil’ Green, Ma Rainey and Geechie Wiley. A song-cycle coloured by slide guitar, paired with synthesizer and vibraphone, drenched in classic reverbs, Old Haunts was arranged and produced by “Sheffield’s answer to Lightnin’ Hopkins,” (NME), guitarist Tom Rodwell. Rodwell hails from the calypso-blues notorieties Storehouse, and is also known for his session playing with Don McGlashan on the hit album “Lucky Stars”.

Hi All
I've been djing and producing since the mid nineties when i wrote,produced and released five house and garage tracks under the name of Koxy 1 and one speedgarage track in collaboration with two other producers under the name of BMW(Butts,Menzie and Koxy).I've dj'd in many London clubs including Legends,Pacha,Venom and The Ministry of Sound to name but a few,I've also had regular slots on London pirate radio stations including Select UK,Passion FM,Unknown FM,993.com and currently do guest appearances on www.urbankronix.co.uk.
After leaving the scene for a few years, a colleague of mine persuaded me to put out some mixes on Soundcloud and things have taken off from there.
My genre of djing is Soulful House with an uptempo tip to it.
I like to take the listener on an uplifting journey evoking pleasant feelings through warm keyboard sounds and wicked chords whilst trying to make the mixes sound as if the two records were as one!
I hope you enjoy my style, so wherever you are turn up the volume and enjoy some serious Soulful House mixes.
Peace!!!.......Koxy :)
