“Beat conductor Jethroe builds sonic temples with the same skill and precision a master mason would use while constructing a palatial pyramid. Electro-infused drums kick along while organic instruments flirt with subtle electrodes of ambience. The end result is a finely crafted audio estate.”
– DJ Raw B, (CNET’s Download.com Music, KUSF Beatsauce)
“Jethroe’s hip-hop blends an Aquaboogie funk fluidity with schools of colorful melodic fish. The drums are as sharp as coral, and expect a mermaid-crooner and a shark-toothed rapper to make your dive in to his sounds more interesting. Overall, Jethro’s music falls between DJ Krush’s introspective grit, and Mr. Scruff’s light-hearted bump.”
– Tomas Palermo, Managing Editor, XLR8R Magazine
Combining hip-hop, dub and electronic influences with a love for the analog electronics of the ‘70s, Jethroe’s music comes across like Herbie Hancock on a planetary tour.

– Dhamaal Soundsystem’s Transition EP uder the moniker Echotwist, with production partner Maneesh the Twister. His track “Frankie’s Next Move” was recently licensed to XBOX 360’s “Project Gotham” and SONY BMG India’s Shamur compilation.
