Oscar G Sets Release

.
(PR) On April 22, legendary NYC underground house label Nervous Records will release Oscar G�s first-ever original artist CD, INNOV8.
As one-half of landmark Miami-based Murk (along with partner Ralph Falcon), Oscar G. is known as one of the most versatile talents in all of dance music. Over the years, he�s produced some of dance music�s all-time biggest hits while also fashioning a style all his own as a DJ. With DJing and producing holding an equal level of importance in defining Oscar�s talent, he created an artist CD that perfectly reflects both sides of the story. INNOV8 is an album of all original material that Oscar G personally wrote, but also arranged, mixed and programmed as a DJ set. It�s a spectacular mix of original song segments, loops, samples, edits, effects and mixed grooves created from the eight original songs featured on the album.
�I feel like dance music is better represented when it is served by a DJ, so this album is an attempt to showcase my original material while also wearing a DJ hat to put it together for the listener. Each track on this album is there not only because I feel it is strong enough as a song, but also because it serves a purpose in the overall DJ mix that binds the album,� Oscar G says.
Musically, INNOV8 reflects Oscar G�s dark side. It feels like a trip through a steamy jungle where the sweat just pours out and the heat never lets up. While there is definitely a tropical/ tribal vibe to the programming, it�s much different than anything you�ve ever heard from Oscar. Many tracks are minimal in nature and it requires complete attention to take in the experience that INNOV8 will provide to the listener. It�s not just about creating eight house tracks. This is about creating a story through house music filled with the up and down emotions of a DJ set. Tracklisting:
�Angel�
�Pimp�
�Danceflow�
�You�
�Miami�
�Chunky�
�Lookin��
�Crunchy Haze�
�Anxious�
