Using the Green Velvet moniker to make his singularly twisted, funk-flecked house and techno hybrid, it was as Cajmere that he made his first musical mark back in the early 90’s after ditching school half way through a post-grad, chemical engineering degree at top-notch US college Berkeley. Initially Jones, as both Cajmere and Green Velvet, received more attention in Europe than he did in America, but over the years things have been picking up for this maverick producer. When this album drops it’ll set off bombs over here and Stateside, and who knows what Green Velvet will come up with then? “I don’t want to reveal too much,” he says coyly. “I just want people to appreciate this now, for what it is.”
