E's E
DJ, Producer and Co-Founder of the Brooklyn-Based label Names You Can Trust, E's E is relentlessly pushing a new standard of quality music to the masses. As DJ, his live sets embark on a genre-traveling approach that is just as likely to feature some off-the-wall Japanese Jazz as it is the newest Break Beat productions out of the UK and beyond. His highly focused CD releases for NYCTrust have been heralded with numerous blessings, including the critical appraisal "best mix ever" from Fat City in Manchester as well as a write up in Germany's most widely distributed Hip Hop Publication, Juice. As beat-maker, E's productions and collaborations have slowly infiltrated UK compilations and underground radio show playlists, already being highlighted for their heavy bass, hard-hitting drum programs and insane dub effects. The Names You Can Trust label continues in its approach to push products that represent an under-appreciated form of musical knowledge and DJ craftsmanship. The seven unique releases that have formed the NYCTrust catalog have chronicled Classic Male Soul, Underground Hip Hop, Rock 'N Roll Break Beats, Roots Reggae, Hip Hop Samples, Instrumental Beats and Funky Disco.
MONK-ONE
Monk-One has gained a worldwide reputation as a true music lover who simultaneously
contains the skill to rock parties, throw down rare and never heard vinyl wonders and craft
ridiculous chronicles of musical genres in the form of a mix CD that only a true connoisseur
can do. He has blazed a trail in legendary clubs from Japan to the UK, going toe to toe with
such heavyweights as Madlib, the 45 King, DJ Red Alert, Yam Who and Mark Rae to name a
few. He maintains resident DJ status on New York's longest running Hip Hop radio show,
The Underground Railroad (WBAI), is the "Ambassador" and editor of the well respected
journal Wax Poetics, and has released an original 7" and EP on Ten12 Records.
ONEMAN
Known throughout the land as "The Sample King," DJ Oneman sniffs out records like you
wouldn't believe. His treasure trove of original vinyl dominates his living quarters,
containing seldom heard and never seen gems that when the time is right, he unveils for
the masses to ponder. His legendary guest sets on The Underground Railroad (WBAI) have been
known to throw the listeners, residents and hosts in an absolute uproar. His knowledge and
appreciation of rare vinyl species has led him to submit mixes on the famed soulstrut.com
website as well as spot gigs on Long Island's legendary cable access show Rare Groove
Revolution, where he spent 3 episodes breaking down the complexities of one of the crate
digger's biggest enigmas - Library Records. Oneman's vinyl collection has been heralded by such big shots as Dr. Dre and Jay E (Nelly's Producer) for its incredible selection of obscure break beats.
