DJ Zevzek is set to release the “Dis Duzzit CD!
Europe’s famous Disc Jockey (DJ) spinner known as DJ Zevzek has released his very own full length album, “Dis Duzzit.” The full-length album is filled with fourteen (14) original sound recordings and musical works of almost an hour and a half worth of constant grooves, making for a extensive mix of electronic and house material. It is being released with the Sunset Jazz (Recordings) Record label, at Sunset Classics & Jazz (SC&J). The album is entitled, “Dis Duzzit” and the album name is also a song named on the jazzy and groovy full length CD, and it is representative of one of the better types of traditional beats on a long form CD that has been released in a very long time.
DJ Zevzek is a European who's parents had fled the one time communist ruled Romania and he was eventually allowed to follow them which is where he learned to spin, mix and DJ. Referred to as a so called perfectionist DJ and 'spinner' “DJ Zevzek,” has been a quintessential house-music DJ since the very inception of the overall sound ad genre. “I, myself, have been influenced by some of the most innovative DJs from all over the world,” he (DJ Zevzek) says, his “influences are” wide and obscure calling on the likes of “Couleur 3 and Dr.Silk Sal, ” to help build on his grooving and colorful style.
This overall style was also built while using SL1200 turntables, a Korg Polisix and a TR606 drum box on the four track recorder he had used since he started spinning professionally in his career. But today, he is considered to be a modern styled DJ during live performances. His brand new CD (Dis Duzzit) is a high-quality and driving album that is pristine sounding from the first song to last song ('Hyperdiamonds') that is also the first single being released around the world. This collection is a work of art that is perfect for fans of DJ work and house music.
The new release, “Dis Duzzit,” showcases the DJ's influences bringing the beats and sounds together from albums and songs he grew up playing and listening to for a long time. On the new CD being released at Sunset (Jazz), is a touch of the old school coupled with the new and modern day sounds that are seamlessly blended. The brand new CD is a fresh batch of songs influenced by an old tradition, by mixing in his own influences making up this brand-new, 2015 release. His career as a DJ began while listening to 'pirate radio' on the French border and he (DJ Zevzek) says that the those sounds were “very funky electronic cuts” such as songs like 'Back to Mono' and while listening to the Dr. Silk Sal's radio program on pirate radio, led him showing up to visit him (Dr. Silk Sal) at the station and at his Petit Saconnex penthouse apartment which is where he discovered the SL1200 turntables that he says had “custom arms and styluses.” Dr. Silk Sal allowed the young DJ to scratch, mix, cut, drop tracks which soon gave him (DJ Zevzek) this musical and rhythm sound and in no time at all, the new DJ started making remixes of popular club songs using a capella, dub and instrumental versions. Soon after that, he (DJ Zevzek) started playing out live at places like Club 58 becoming their resident DJ. He then toured around the world playing everywhere in Europe and in major cities like Vancouver doing raves and after hours clubs while also producing and mixing original dance tracks for all out Roland jams along with live scratching and dubbing at the jam sessions and all nighters.
The popular DJ was also doing work for EA (Entertainment Arts) with songs now on the Quake 3 and NHL 98 production and games and the DJ has done work for the Frontline Assembly, a popular industrial group. “His album is a real, angelic sound of dance music that is a grooving, funky jazzy and wide opened free style set of music,” says Don Lichterman, the head of Sunset (Sunset Jazz Recordings) about this new LP set to hit stores on March 31, 2015. “It shows the world a great vibe on the entire CD and honestly, it takes me back to when I was doing the club scene in San Francisco, Philly (Philadelphia) and in New York City back in the mid ’90s. The DJ Zevzek then says about his new and debut CD with the Sunset label that this “new collection of dance tracks touches upon soul, funk, gospel and disco while remaining minimal, trippy and spacey.”
(Don) Lichterman also says about DJ Zevzek that he is “a customarily hard working man that believes that the sound of his (DJ Zevzek) music laid down on this full length fourteen (14) song CD will be a staple in this format and style which is very niche, yet also very popular with music fans from all around the world” and that “he considers the consistent and positive reaction of his fan base, this as DJ that will be around forever.”
“Dis Duzzit” by DJ Zevzek is available to stream online worldwide today, and the downloads and physical CD is available in stores that sell music on March 31st. Anyone can listen now and all fans of beats and dance music will be able to get the full length CD soon.

Ali Hughes - Cry
Like a lot of women, in my late teens and early 20’s I experienced an extremely abusive relationship- mental and physical. It left a massive void in my life for a very long time, one that affected all my subsequent relationships. Since then, I have become stronger and more secure, and tenacious in my need to forgive so that I may help others, both women and men, stand up to abuse and overcome it. I wrote this song as a form of release and a reclamation of my power as a woman. ~ Ali
She's Not A Woman
The House On The Hill brings some incendiary performances that should really catapult the band to international attention.
Sunset Records recording artist, House On The Hill remain as one of the “best kept secrets” in pop rock music today.
The House On The Hill debut album illustrates their down home funk style coupled with a pop mainstream appeal, making up a solid full length album with “Punk Ass.” House On The Hill's music shows off its worldwide accessible appeal without any blurred lines between spiritual devotion, lack of asceticism, and any influences in rock music history. Nevertheless, underneath the pathos and great irony in the songs off Punk Ass, they are excellent lyricists, and their songs draw the line between dance and down home rock. It's very easy to see how the “Punk Ass” CD can become a widely-loved album of great rock music across the nation and around the world, which given the final product of this debut House On The Hill CD, they could very well hit big over the next few years at Sunset.
After a couple of years, House On The Hill is banking on getting a lot of recognition with Don Lichterman and Sunset Records (Digital Distribution with Interscope/A&M) working their debut album, Punk Ass. The initial single being worked to radio, 'Home Away From Home', is just one of the songs being worked to radio over the next few months. “There are at least five (5) songs that I want worked to radio by this band,” says Don Lichterman, the Head of Sunset Records.
This London and Israeli exponents make up the strong sounding production throughout the entire CD—(Don) Lichterman goes onto to say that “they (House On The Hill) were in the studio for most of this year (2009) and I am very anxious to get this set up at retail and at college radio as soon as possible this year let alone by next year (2010).” In fact, “Punk Ass” sounds like Lenny Kravitz at times and even has that Alabama 3 (The Sopranos Theme Song) vibe to its down home music. House On The Hill does prove their sincerity to American roots styled music with an entire album filled with great rock songs great to dance to at any time. With songs like "She’s Not A Woman," “Annie,” and the song that dawns the same album title name, “Punk Ass,” the rest of the disc is a solid sounding ten (10) song album.
Sunset is surely off to a great start in 2010 with the release of the Punk Ass CD by House On The Hill set up for January 26th, this is first new CD being distributed through the Interscope/A&M/Geffen digital distribution channel.

Husband-and-wife tandem Dan and Cristina Handrabur make up what is Weed!
The latest release from Weed contains many nuggets of musical works with ambient singer Cristina Handrabur that lends her beautifully distinctive vocals to songs on 'Visionary Sessions'. Both ( Dan and Cristina Handrabur) were both born in Bucharest Romania before each moved to live in Geneva. Dan began playing violin and is classically trained musically while garnering a scholarship to study at the Conservatoire de Geneve at the young age of sixteen (16) years old. Cristina began singing also at an early age in her teens with credits on many albums and placements of her music on many soundtrack CD's. As Weed, they blend ambiance, psychedelia, trip-hop and electronica elements into their own unique musical blend and top it with Dan's great playing styles and with Cristina’s distinctive vocals.
Oddly, Weed have been flying under the radar when it comes to music in mainstream world. People are now fast becoming more familiar with this act, and especially those listeners that are fans of Morcheeba, Lemon Jelly, The Cinematic Orchestra and Jazzanova. Fans of triphop in general and electronica music band will love this new album entitled 'Visionary Sessions.' This latest release does sound like an old formula in a modern era, and those that love music with a modern and sophisticated lounge feel to it, this is an album for you.
Earning a set of Technics DJ'ing at the landmark Club 58, Weed adapted the use of a Korg synthesizer and a Roland beat box. The new reality of composing and producing electronic music along with adding Cristina's soothing vocals, make up quintessential Weed. That overall sound is something that automatically makes the entire album accessible to all listeners. The combination of Dan's playing and Cristina's vocals makes them sound like they did the day they met to collaborate as one. The dreamy vocals and trip hop sound is what carries the band. And, the ability to produce sophisticated beats with flashy chords is what makes that cutting edge overall sound.
There is no doubt that we will hear certain songs be used on TV montages and in advertisements, and the band has already been placed in at least four Soundtrack (Suddenly Naked, Guilty, Free Enterprise & Bruiser) CD's to date. Drawn together by similar tastes in music and artwork, Dan and Cristina fell in love literally, and musically. After Dan moved with his family to Toronto, Canada (shortly after his graduation), a year later, Cristina joined him, and they married each other while they also they collaborated on music in Weed. Having relocated to Canada, they both quickly became known among a new electronic music community and have had great successes in large American cities like Detroit and throughout the entire United Kingdom. Their overall ambient sound is actually described as being more than the Industrial sounds any major populated city is more associated with today.
After the participation of many projects over the years (Outersanctum, Floatpoint, Vuemorph, Mere Mortals, Off And Gone, Weed), the duo has since returned to their native home in Romania to settle in a mountain village, and label head (Sunset Jazz Recordings) Don Lichterman, pleaded with them to allow the company to release this latest CD (Visionary Sessions). (Don) Lichterman says that “seeing them around horse drawn carriages, wooden stoves, secular traditional customs and lots of fresh air, the home of Outersanctum Studios is a goldmine of music and most of all, these guys play so well together; they compliment each others great talents.” (Don) Lichterman also says that “Dan continues to produce albums, tour all over in Europe and hopes to be able to travel to India to learn the techniques of Indian violin playing as well as the sarangi, an ancient, almost rudimentary stringed instrument with a distinctive sound.”
Cristina Handrabur says that “in the last years since we moved from Bucharest, we are enjoying a more natural life, growing our own vegetables and herbs, making our own wine, visiting and discovering new sacred places(where European civilization first started), forest trekking, experimenting and finding inspiration for new artwork.” (Don) Lichterman says that “this overall situation is a great recipe for success and most of all, they need to be heard big time.” He (Don Lichterman) ends by saying that he “will give them (Cristina and Dan Handrabur aka Weed) the most viable chances to be placed and they will have the most viable way to be heard by anyone in the world.”
The 'Visionary Sessions” twelve (12) CD is in stores on march 3rd and the new video of the song, “Truth Love Spirit“ is in all video outlets beginning this week. The full length CD is made up with the following beautiful sound recordings:

Not to mention, they were listed in the top six as best young jazz band in Eastern Europe this year. “I not only plan on using this album to springboard a new sense of direction at Sunset Jazz (Recordings),” says label head, Don Lichterman, “We are also in hope of using Alex’s (Aleksandar Jovanovic) A&R chops to gain more jazz acts for the label.”
The debut album being released at Sunset (Jazz) is inspired by “water” as in a state of a “form” and (Don) Lichterman says that he, “loves the concept” of it. He (Lichterman) goes on to say that he also “loves the deep traditional style of this band (Woodcock Group).” Woodcock Group’s debut recording entitled, Water Stories, has already gained international radio play with “Vrelo,” the first song being worked to radio this year.
