Beatdown Collective
“The combination of jazz and electronic (funk/jazztronica) is improvisational by nature and creates a precarious blend of simplicity and complexity that is mind-blowing. Watching the two work off of each other, improving and building off of each other's energy and sound was quite a pleasure.” - KC Orcutt Jamforums.com

Jason is currently in the studio working on “Yeah, That’s the Stuff”. Its a tasty collection of heavy organ grooves, gritty Soul-Jazz,Funk-Hop and Chill/Electronica tracks. Guest include Michael Newman and Jeff Nania on sax, Dave Spadaro on guitar and The Vinylcologist cuts/beats.
