Bio
.................... .. .. ...... .. .... .. .. Hooked on the golden era of music creativity, where boundaries where just there to be broken and art was not at all so disposable. Attempting to make the connection between the new generations of today and tomorrow and the truth and strong meaning hidden deep (maybe not as deep as we think) in our past. There is much to be researched, there still are treasures to be found and with them new creations shall rise and "walk the lands" of today. This is 2 High 2 Jazz, a constant search for meaning and truth in music and art as a whole. The mind and the grind behind it all is Alex "Squat" (that..s me actually) musician, producer and MC (not sure if MCing falls into any category). Born in Rio de Janeiro - Brasil, I am what they call a "Carioca". "Kidnapped" from my homeland still as a baby, I was taken to England, and English became my first language, my first connection and "tool" for interaction with people. I have traveled quite a bit, lived here and there and sometimes I confess I cannot decide on things like "the best place to be", I just like to be around. I am a traveler (at least my soul does ride when my body can..t), and an adventurer of some sort, I wish I could have enough time to get to know the whole world, places and people, different cultures and paths to enlightment. Meanwhile I wish you light, and peace within your soul, so that from the serene you can build all your wishes. Thanks for stopping by for a minute, hope you like something you heard here, and if you do, please do get in touch! **************************************** Criado por Alex Squat, 2 High 2 Jazz é a conexão dos grandes momentos da criatividade no Jazz com o Hip Hop Old School. Puxando influências como Miles Davis, Donald Byrd, Bobby Hutcherson e Jimmy Smith, assim como Beastie Boys, Cypress Hill, Jurassic 5 e The Pharcyde. Alex é MC e produtor musical, e teve em sua estória a honra de ser o único brasileiro a gravar com B Real do Cypress Hill em Los Angeles para o disco "The Harvest", uma coletânea de novos MCs. (http://www.theaudiohustlaz.com/?s=harvest) YOUTUBE: (http://www.youtube.com/alexsquatp/u/10/qLZzQBla88w) Na época tocando em seu primeiro projeto, entitulado "Squat!", Alex volta de L.A. e começa a trabalhar no 2 High 2 Jazz. Ao vivo, o 2 High 2 Jazz se diferencia pela presença de uma banda formada por 4 músicos de Jazz e um MC. Este quinteto reproduz com sutileza, dinamismo e ao mesmo tempo pressão sonora o material gravado no disco Rising. A formação de uma Banda completa o conceito do 2 High 2 Jazz de forma clássica. Jazz e Hip Hop, de certa forma sonoramente o "pai" e o " filho" unidos da forma como tem que ser. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. -

Oi 2HIGH2JAZZ , respondi o seu e-mail lhe agradecendo! Muito sucesso no dia 12. Abraço, George Vidal.
Sensacional o seu som, gostei demais. Muito sucesso...
Hey 2HIGH2JAZZ ! Thanks for the add!

Cheers for the add - I like your sounds, hope you like mine too:)!
Good luck & all the best from Paul:)!
Here we go!!!
My debut solo album "In My Pocket" comes out on BBE Records in a couple of weeks! It'll be available pretty much everywhere ;) iTunes, Amazon, eMusic, etc. (and at shows, of course!) And if you're feeling extra lovely, you can grab the digital single "Magical" + 4 dope remixes by DJ Vadim, Supa Dave West, Paten Locke and Batsauce. It's out there... go get it! ;) Also, the ALBUM RELEASE PARTY is June 3rd at Bohannon in Berlin, Germany. If you're in the area - AWESOME! I hope to see you there! And, if not, I'm accepting "in spirit" RSVP's for those who live too far away. ;) I appreciate the love and support over the years and if you really want to help me shine, spread the word, buy my new album and send me a message! I want to hear from you! Peace, Lady Daisey
