A cinematic jazz-hip-hop-pop fusion that bridges eras — the soul of the blues, the poetry of hip-hop, and the power of pop.
Rich live instrumentation meets modern production: soulful guitar bends, brass harmonies, upright bass fused with 808s, and a 40-bar lyrical firestorm that speaks truth, struggle, and redemption.

This is more than a song — it’s a story told through every note and breath.
Close your eyes and let the river carry you.

River of My Blues

“Ed’s Intergalactic Sojourn” drifts through the cosmos like a jam session caught between dimensions. Anchored in a major key groove with ornate bass lines and fluid, improvisational interplay, the track blends warmth, wonder, and wide-open space.

The sound unfolds slowly — Fender Rhodes and B3 organ shimmer like distant starlight, while interlocking guitars weave celestial melodies that stretch and bend through time. The rhythm section stays grounded in a soulful pulse, giving the whole piece that live-in-studio feel, loose yet locked-in.

Vocals appear like echoes — sparse, dreamlike, almost nonsensical — carrying the listener through Ed’s journey without ever spelling it out. What follows is pure motion: extended instrumental sections where improv solos bloom, collide, and dissolve in radiant color.

At its core, “Ed’s Intergalactic Sojourn” is a cosmic jam, equal parts earthy and ethereal — a sonic postcard from somewhere beyond the Milky Way, signed simply: “Ed was here.”

Real Music. Real Emotion. Straight from NYC.

I’m Michael Woltmann — producer, songwriter, and the mind behind the MUTEFUSE philosophy. I defined the luxury-rap sound of the late ’90s and early 2000s, and there are maybe a couple 100 people on the planet who can do what I do.

150+ original tracks. Every genre. Every emotion.
Global team of artists. Two degrees. A lifetime of experience.  This is my back catalog of 25 years. 

I don’t chase trends. I chase the feeling.

Press play. Feel something real.

Born out of late-night jams and the endless search for a groove that never quits,  Vibe Syndicate isn’t just a band—it’s a living, breathing experiment in sound. With roots tangled in rock, funk, blues, and the sprawling improvisational spirit of the jam scene, the Syndicate has built its reputation on never playing the same show twice.

Their music is a blend of road-worn storytelling and cosmic exploration. Songs bend and stretch like smoke in the air—sometimes tender, sometimes fiery, always alive. Audiences are invited not just to listen, but to join the journey: each night a new adventure, each note a ripple in the collective vibe.

Drawing influence from the likes of the Grateful Dead, moe., Phish, and the soulful fire of Tedeschi Trucks, the Syndicate forges its own path, weaving together lyrics that speak to heartbreak, hope, and the mysteries of existence with grooves that make you move before you know it.

At its heart, The Syndicate is about community. The band believes that music is a vessel for connection, and every performance is an opportunity to build something bigger than themselves. Whether it’s in a smoky dive bar, a festival field at sunrise, or a tiny living room session, they bring the same spirit: raw, honest, and unafraid to stretch beyond the edge.
