Touch Of Class Records proudly presents, KMLN(pronounced“Kameleon”)a duo comprised of Italian producer/multi - instrumentalist, Christopher Tooker, and Canadian DJ/fashion designer, Shawna Hofmann.

True to their name, these chameleons can adapt to any sound whether it be a prime time or sunrise set, the artist within these two delivers through live instruments and syncopation, where organic meets the modern and the future meets the past.

TOCR presents a four-song, all original composition from the talented and inspiring duo called “Be Here.” Each song is a masterpiece in its own, comprising of vocal and instrumental performances by WORTH, Rocka, N.I.M. and Freddi Price.

The EP’ s lead track ‘ Be Here’ is a passionate existential vocal by Christopher Worth in the tone of R&B singing about the power of slowing down your mind and being present in the moment. “Be Here”, crosses between a dancefloor track but stays true to classic songwriting format. The subterranean bass and heart pounding kicks hold the groove while the soul infused organs and synths carry you to a thoughtful place, driving the intimacy of emotions.

Following the lead single is this summer's dancefloor shocker, ‘ ProNoia’ -- a tribute to the gritty stripped down essentials of old school deep house. Shamari Rocka’ s vocal contains tone’ s of comedy, sexiness and a light but precise call out to the female figure in his imagination.

Then, enter the otherworldly dimensions of, ‘ Bunzi’ - a sonic journey into a land of fantasy, where mystery and magic reign. Follow the bracing vocals of a woman welcoming and tickling you with delight and washing your worries away, leaving you relaxed and thoughtless. Seriousness and passion follow, the instrument Sand Rabab opens the portal to an uncharted territory, grounding you and allowing you to once again feel your body.

The final piece in this timeless musical puzzle is, ‘ Sirena’ featuring Freddi Price. This song tells the tale of the impossible love scene between a sailor lost at sea and a mermaid, calling him to be with her forever beneath the sea. Vocals and trumpet delivered by the multi-talented Freddi Price of the legendary Extra Action Marching Band from Oakland, California.

The “Be Here EP” is set for a end of summer release which will carry you along side the beautiful sun as it rises and sets wherever your travels take you. Two incredibly beautiful videos will accompany this release, one for ‘ Be Here’ and the other for ‘ ProNoia,’ Premiering beginning to mid September.

@RayZuniga, DJ, producer, Touch of Class label owner and Output resident joined forces with frequent collaborator and beloved Listed resident @DJNikita for magical evening of world-class house music in The Panther Room November 18 2018.

Ray Zuniga & NIKITA - Live from The Panther Room Nov 2018

It was the last sunrise on our beloved Playa, and the morning of Temple Burn. It was also the most beautiful, absolutely surreal transformation of our moon and sun, upon the coldest night of the Burn. The energy, vibe, and temperature, quickly elevated, provided a state of bliss thanks to our all-giving sun! All these elements, along with the citizens of Black Rock City, who lift our spirits, reminded and reassured us that we’re surrounded by pure LOVE! The incredible and unique ART continues to inspire us, igniting our inner light, liberating us from our fears, and encouraging us all to be living our best lives. 

 For us, it’s an absolute pleasure and honor to be a part of such an incredible art project, broadening people’s imaginations and inspiring others to dream BIG! Reminding us of our purpose to prove the testament that MUSIC really is the answer.

Barney Cools | Poolside Etiquette Guest Mixtape 21: PillowTalk

We started Friday night at 4:30 in the early AM, and brought up Saturday’s sun over the course of 2.5 hours on the beach stage of beautiful Belden Town, along the majestic Feather River. 

We are honored to have been part of the 10 Year Anniversary of the Sunset Campout, and couldn’t be more pleased to share with you our set from the best campout on earth! Every year it’s a family reunion of many sorts, full of constant LOVE (and of course rigorous comedy), truly only experienced by those who attend! 

Hope you enjoy the journey of nature’s transition!! @sunset-sound-system

Your LIVING soul brutha’s, @rayzuniga @djnikita

RAY ZUNIGA & NIKITA - Live @ Sunset Campout 2019

Experience Ray Zuniga and Nikita’s trill, mystical live, opening set from The Cityfox Odyssey NYE/NYD 2019 party with this one hour and twenty-minute exclusive recording blend of deep house, techno, and a dash of disco.

Colorado-born, San-Francisco established DJ extraordinaire, NIKITA grew up as a natural entertainer. For over 16 years, he established and expanded his talents as a dynamic, versatile selector, changing and evolving the West Coast Deep House scene. Globally-established DJ, Ray Zuniga is one half label owner at Touch of Class records and one half of duo SignalFlow, as well as an internationally recognized curator and performer of accessible, yet spontaneous sounds.

After taking in their individual audible delights, it’s no wonder their shared penchant for suspending time with sophisticated, rhythmic electronic voyages have brought them together. In addition to playing together, they also produce an international music event called LIVING.us and since both have been spending time in New York creating a community who crave their contrasting fantastically blended sets, we can’t wait to see what comes from the pair next. Listen to and share this live set from Ray Zuniga and Nikita on repeat.
