Reelsoul

"I first heard house music on the radio and fell in love with the sounds it created. I could hear influences of Disco in a lot of the songs and like that it had smooth melodies over 4/4 beats. Then my brother Henry and my cousin Victor would go to the local undergrounds and bring new music to me that I loved. By that time I already had my own turntables. I was 11 years old and the year was 1991. My cousin Victor dj at the time and they both would take me record shopping and it opened a whole new world for me. The name ReelSoul came about when I made my first track “Take me to a Place” with my friend Damon Montelongo and my cousin Steven Romero. When this track made it big I became instantly on demand for remix work. The labels would put me as “ReelSoul”. From that point on the name stood."
