Artist Spotlight : January : D'oké

Artist Spotlight : January 2018 : D'oké

"D'oké defines himself as a lover of music without labels and explores an organic side equally and say another more synthetic, hence the dichotomy observed both in his creations or in his occasional dj sessions. Born and raised in Tenerife (Canary Islands) he has published themes for labels such as Offering, Cabana, Yoruba, Iklwa & Kalma"

Jaymz Nylon

Jaymz Nylon put the Beat Down in his first Boston appearance at Passage - Good Life! Honored to hear, witness, and be a part of this fun experience. Looking forward to the next opportunity to share the decks!

Back in 2012 Brooklynite/Producer/DJ/Label Owner Jaymz Nylon founded Passage the home for the more soulful alternative to Seattle's House Music community. Jaymz Nylon along with partners/co-resident DJs Joey Webb and Vagabond Superstar created a long running night that still continues to showcase quality House Music for the Pacific Northwest.

Jaymz Nylon has since relocated back east to the Boston area and has teamed up with local favorite, the extremely talented DJ/Producer K Civ. K Civ has been a part of many amazing nights in the Boston area over the last 20+ years including Soul Revival, Think Tank, Redline, & Blue Cat Cafe.

Together Jaymz and K Civ invite you to experience Passage Boston, a journey in Music.

Passage Boston

Boston Friends & Family! I know it has been quite a while since I have done or been a part of something in and around the city. I think it's time for something NEW! I have recently teamed up with the Godfather of Afrotech, Jaymz Nylon (Nylon/Trax Recordings) to bring a new musical experience “Passage” to Boston. 

Back in 2012 Brooklynite/Producer/DJ/Label Owner Jaymz Nylon founded Passage the home for the more soulful alternative to Seattle's House Music community. Jaymz Nylon along with partners/co-resident DJs Joey Webb and Vagabond Superstar created a long running night that still continues to showcase quality House Music for the Pacific Northwest.

Jaymz Nylon has since relocated back east to the Boston area and has teamed up with local favorite, the extremely talented DJ/Producer K Civ. K Civ has been a part of many amazing nights in the Boston area over the last 20+ years including Soul Revival, Think Tank, Redline, & Blue Cat Cafe.

Together Jaymz and K Civ invite you 
to experience Passage Boston, a journey in Music.

For decades, Voodoo Ray produced and promoted some of the best events in New York and other cities around the globe. Most recently, he partnered on the weekly Toca Tuesdays and Funkbox events. Voodoo Ray also played an integral part in the creation and production of The Funky Lil Tea Party, Love Is Love Showcase, the Boogieland Central Dance Showcase, Feel Good, The R&B Affairs and many others. He was passionate about music, art and dance, and consistently called upon his enormous catalog of artist friends to showcase during his events.

Voodoo Ray choreographed and/or appeared as a featured dancer for some of the biggest musicians in the world, including the likes of JAY-Z (“Sunshine”), MC Lyte (“Ice Cream Dream”), Run-DMC (“It’s Like That”), Mariah Carey (“Honey,” “The Roof”), Wyclef Jean (“Trying to Stay Alive,” “Pussycat”), Backstreet Boys (“Larger Than Life”), Black Moon (“Two Turntables & a Mic”), Bounty Killer (“It’s a Party”), Rah Digga (“Party and Bullshit”), Nikki D (“Wasted”), Busta Rhymes (“Put Your Hands Where My Eyes Can See”), Cuban Link (“Scandalous”), Doug E.
