In the world of dance music, Jesse Brooks is admired and well respected as a dj. Getting his start in the early 90’s underground scene of LA, he quickly built a strong following with a long residency at the legendary Fresh Produce parties. Traveling all over the US and playing parties as far away South America and Malaysia, he has taken his sound to listeners far and wide. Jesse’s eclectic taste allows him to play to any type of crowd.

Eventually Jesse’s passion for House led to him getting involved in the music on other levels (mix cd’s, producing, recording).  Jesse’s first recording success came in the form of two nationally released mix cd’s (LA Groove and Fresh Produce) with sales exceeding 30,000 units.  His very first project as a producer, gained a release on the very reputable Imperial Dub label. Additional releases have made their way onto such labels as Yoshitoshi, Large, Seasons, Om, City Deep, Offset, and Dutchie Music.  Jesse just finished a collaborative remix of Femi Kuti due out early next year.

For a decade now, Boston based Mike Henderson aka DJ Endo has been representing the breaks sound. But like most talented artists, you can’t just pigeon-hole one particular genre to Mike. Berklee College of Music graduate, ex-drummer and Northeast Rep for Native Instruments ‘Traktor Scratch’, Mike certainly shows his passion to the world with his endless amounts of hard work and dedication to music.

When I mentioned that Monism Music started a podcast to him, he immediately sent me this mix of banging tech-funk. There’s not much more to say, let the mix speak for itself.  You can read DJ Endo’s extensive bio and resume by visiting http://www.djendo.com
