“Once the percussion was nicely set up and ready for a seriously beating by live percussionist Joakin Eskasan out of LA (and here for his very first time in San Diego!)” “Joakin took full reigns of the Toms and bongos all about 30 seconds into the set and with undying bursts full of energy and smiles, the roofdeck atmosphere was quickly transported to that perfect Miami beach party style, and state of mind”
(TD from The Mixster.com on The Tropical Sounds at Firehouse San Diego, CA)
“Thanks so much for the surprise percussion the other night…YOU WERE AMAZING” & “Your being there and your amazing spirit and energy really helped me to TAKE IT THERE.” “AND, yes…LET’S MAKE PEOPLE DANCE!!”

“The Tireless smiling man knows how to keep the beat better than anyone this side of the Ozark Mountains, never missing a beat while never letting up. Don’t be surprised to hear this talent bang to the beat at an MTL party near you”
[DeepJ Max - DeepSound Review at Electronic Dance Music Montreal]
“Keep those people moving to the beat of the drums”
[Alex Lavin / Groove Diplomats]
