When a jazz vocalist is also an electronic musician, what is left to do but to release the beast that is Russtopher? And so he did on July 2016.

For the last twenty years, Brian Abelson has written, produced, and dj’d groove-oriented music, skipping playfully between disco, hip hop, house, garage rock, synth pop, and techno. His productions and collaborations have come out on labels like Beats in Space, Sinderlyn, Love Injection (Jennifer Vanilla), Lobster Theremin (See Other), Sorry Records, and Toucan Sounds (w/ John Barera) and showcase his penchant for crafting textured, infectious rhythms. As a DJ, Brian flows fluidly between genres and makes heavy use of homemade edits, locked grooves, and drum machine improvisations. He previously maintained a 3-year long residency at Bossa Nova Civic Club, and has played at clubs like Nowadays, Holo, and Elsewhere.
