about
As lover of eclectic, electronic music, Gecko Jones, makes the music of the Caribbean - African and Colombian rock. He performs in New York. From NPR's "This Week On Alt.Latino" by JASMINE GARSD "Half Puerto Rican and half Colombian, Geko is a musical anthropologist of sorts, frequently traveling back to Colombia to find old artists and songs he then mixes with heavy, contagious beats. I like to think of him as playing your grandma's music, but at a volume and with a bass that would have your grandma yelling at you to turn that ruckus off." From Geko's MySpace: "Geko Jones is a Brooklyn-based Puerto-lombian DJ/Producer and Vibe Springer. He is a founding member of both the New York Tropical and Que Bajo?! party franchises in New York. He is also a partner and co-owner of the Dutty Artz record label with producer Matt Shadetek and DJ /Rupture. His mixes span the tropical hemispheres and collage together globally sonic hours of dancefloor mayhem. Renowned by top DJ's and producers of the digital cumbia scene in Latin America and European bass-pundits alike, Jones is one of the select few DJ's pushing forward the Latin agenda in a world wide tropical bass scene.
