Une brève histoire: Pocketknife caught the DJing bug as a teenager in Iowa when he befriended DJ Wolf (original 70s disco/deep house jock who rocked it with Lil' Louis in Chi) and then honed his craft with Theo Parrish (Sound Signature) while the two were in art school together. Production was inevitable, as Pocketknife started to make tracks while attending grad school in Detroit. Now based in Brooklyn, "Mr. Hockney Peacockney" throws down with Cousin Cole as Flagrant Fowl dropping classic jams as well as their own unique remixes.
