As seen in the photo, Mocha loves chilling out on our mini bar listening to Jazz Funk! Had been in/out to our patio for food and water since 2018 but never stayed until last summer, found sad, alone in our backyard! Greeted him & Mocha followed me to our patio, happily joined cat colony ever since! 
(His previous owner moved and cruelly left him behind) Mocha is cool, calm, collected, huge Jazz Funk enthusiast, fully vaccinated, micro-chipped, registered, neutered & severely off the market! 😉

Another forgotten project since the mid 90's and finally brought to life! If you have seen the original movie "Shaft" with its motion picture soundtrack produced by Academy award winner Isaac Hayes! After earning an Oscar for Shaft motion picture soundtrack, "Ike" produced another soundtrack for low budget films "Three Tough Guys & Truck Turner"! The movies didn't make it at the box office but their motion picture soundtracks, in my opinion are way better than Shaft and the academy award should have been given to "Ike" as his second Oscar award! After collecting dust for almost 20 years, original analog master tape was brought to Fantasy Studios, Berkeley CA in 1993! One of my critical audiophile mates kindly shared the 1993 digitally captured tunes with me while he worked there and those HD WAV 24bit files surprisingly found in one of my forgotten storage HDDs during the first lockdown of the highly anticipated Plandemic 2020! 😉

Mixing, audio mastering notes:
Individual tracks continuously mixed using Sony Acid Pro 7, no beat mapping, no EQs involved = (spinning records on turntables without DJ mixer, no pitch, no tempo controls!) My records spinning journey started before first DJ mixer became available in mid 80's! Solid mix mastered using Cloud Bounce Desktop App www.cloudbounce.com Some audible glitches generated, originated from 1993 digitally captured tracks are unfixable and expected in the mix! Tracks order arranged by mix-ability of the tunes rather than the order of the movies scenes!
