"The Underground Sound of DC is one awesome record. It's housey, it's downtempo, it's groovy, it's deep and really, really well put together. So take one heck of a record, give it a sense of unity and make it for a worthy cause and you're left with something that is just about as essential as water. The Underground Sound of DC is highly recommended in every sense of the word."
--Paul Zimmerman, First Coast News.

UNDERGROUND
SOUND OF DC is a collaboration of some of D.C.’s best and most diverse
electronica musicians, including such luminaries as Thievery Corporation,
KayaZ, Fort Knox Five, Kid Gusto, Jette-Ives, Seroya and more... All proceeds
from the CD benefit Whitman-Walker Clinic and the work they do to prevent
and treat HIV and AIDS in D.C.
KayaZ - Tim Kenney has been composing and producing music soundtracks for film, web and multimedia since 1997 at his marketing firm with the help of DJs John Bowen and Jamie Stockie, who generously taught him the foundations of digital composition. With this success he began composing his own down-tempo club electronica under the name KayaZ. This music was so successful he began supplying music to DJs around the world and fomed the KayaZ Kollektiv.
Formerly a player/singer/composer/producer in the bad old days of rock..n..roll, Tim was a back-up drummer for bands such as James Taylor, TNT and Special Flavors. He then launched his own career as a singer with the very successful group "Machu Pichu." Later, after lots of session work with groups like "Four Out of Five Doctors ", he cut an album called simply "Match" on Nemporer Records. Later as a producer/concert promoter he built shows for artists like Jackson Brown and Rod Stewart.

Yes let there be light inside of your eyes and let there be the light of a child's surprise or the miracle of healing with the sunrise and especially laughter replacing our cries.
Let there be the fire that glows within and make it so each time we begin Let the smiles take over from ear to chin and always lets our heart's burst forth and sing.
The burning bush told us the truth To restore our focus and reawaken our youth. It spoke simply saying I am that I am so all that you can be is there in the end.
A single star a reminder each day of happiness waiting there to say that love is a witness to come on through By the miracle of accepting the irreplaceable you.
Blessings above the sun beyond the stars so close to you and never apart
