About

At a time when it seems like many producers and DJs are leaning more and more towards aggressive music such as brostep, Afro Monk is doing just the opposite and bringing the romance back to the dance floor with downtempo sounds and chilled-out future beats. Combining fluid melodies, sultry rhythms and hypnotic bass, Afro Monk uses lush yet cutting-edge electronic beats to create a smooth and sensual vibe.

As a beat producer, DJ, music journalist and events promoter, Afro Monk is a cornerstone of the growing electronic arts community. His wildly popular bass music blog Afro Monk is the source where many fans look for new sounds and insightful commentary, which can also be found in his writings for The Untz and Big Up Magazine.

A new record label is also in the works for Afro Monk later this year, to share music and promote artists making sexy downtempo sounds. Afro Monk is ready to bring his lush, chilled-out sounds to crowds large and small across the country. His focus on downtempo lounge music, trip hop, ambient and other mellow electronic music genres make Afromonk an ideal choice to perform early or late sets at festivals, prefunks, afterparties and all the other occasions that require music to vibe to. With a unique perspective and a fresh, inviting sound, Afro Monk will no doubt continue to inspire both artists and fans as he injects new ideas into the electronic music community.

Recently created a new group for all you lovers and sexy people!
Lovestep | Sexstep

It's all about the MUSIC!

    @☩☨☦✞ ✛oOoo✜✝✙ ✠✚‡: this is why I have a blog. i write about every producer I use. I'm considering on listing the producers. I'm a firm believer that if i list tracks everyone will just go grab that one but if i list the producers name people will dig. That is the main reason I do this... For others to search and discover new things and my blog is the main guide.

    @pitchmonk: First off Thank you for the compliment! The reason why it would take forever is because I have over 300+ tunes in my ableton set and yes I could pick out most of them theirs many that I can't remember which tune it was. I can usually tell who the producer is but almost never track name. I've considered to put together a list of producers but I also don't like doing that because sometimes I might forget a few. All these mixes are done on the fly.
