Disco Sparks produces Nu-Disco and funky house music with a link to the Oldskool style of the 70's and 80's. Ed comes from a musical family. At a young age he grew up with Gospel, Jazz, Funk & Soul music. He became interested in various instruments such as synths, organ, piano, trumpet and drums. Several musicians and producers came in the 70’s and 80’s to his parents' house and the jam sessions and improvisations were a great source of his musical development. His love for records started at a very young age and dancing was not unknown to him. In the early 80's he programmed beats with drum machines and made mixtapes for friends and played as a DJ at various parties. In 1996 Ed met DJ/Producer Richard Marinus and together with other friends they founded the record collectors club 80's Groove. Later this became the DJ and VJ Collective Groove Inc.
