PAUSE THE REGULAR MUSIC (ABOVE RIGHT) DURING VIDEO.
Cloud 99 plays jazz/groove/funk with a few pop tunes thrown in for vocals. We dig way into it and hold nothing back. Lay down some groove on the bottom and spread a generous amount of Jazz improv all around. Sprinkle a little magic dust on top to give it some zap and you've got something special.
