Surprise!.......2005-11-19
I have no idea why I bought this cd. Perhaps it was an Amazon reccomendation and I decided to take a chance. Well, I'm very pleased I did. The writing on the CD is stong and the playing is stellar! DJ Williams is an innovative your talent and the band shines. How about a stop in the Chicago area guys?
DJ Williams Projekt - Turntables not included.......2005-07-26
No, he is not a "D.J." but his name is DJ and his 6
piece Projekt will definitely make you move your ass.
DJ Williams is a 23 year old self taught guitar player
that brings to mind Grant Green, George Benson, and
good ol' Jimi too with his own twist. Keller Williams
calls him "my brotha from a different motha" on his
radio show Keller''s Cellar before spinning the track
"Up All night" off their first record. There newest
album is a thoroughly funky exploration of jazz,
fusion, and soul grooves with inherent heaps of
experience and diversity among the performers. The
band describes it as "a soulful ensemble of jazz, on a
melodic R&B vibe, laced with a grooved down hip hop
backbeat." Williams' smooth, innovative songwriting
and playing is the centerpiece around which orbits a
fiery formation of brass, drums, bass, and keys. With
the energetic Gordon Jones on sax, the infinitely
capable drumming of Dusty Simmons, huge swells and
thumps of bass from Todd Herrington, colorful trumpet
lines by Mark Ingraham, and masterful keyboard
additions from Brian Mahne. The projekt has truly come
to fruition. Even with a closer listen you can still
find elements of latin, reggae, drum & bass, and blues
in the mix. There are not too many guitar players that
can tastefully pull off a broad genre of musical
