Don Mancuso

Rochester, NY, US - The Rochester native began playing the guitar at age 6 and continued pursuing it earnestly when he was a teen. By age 18, he began playing professionally with blues-rock band 'Black Sheep', featuring vocalist Lou Gramm. When Gramm moved to 'Foreigner' and Black Sheep disbanded, Mancuso explored other options. He went on to study piano and voice at California, before returning back to his hometown.

Over the years, Mancuso has collaborated with a wide host of artists and has hopes for an even brighter future. "I do this for the love of playing," he says. "I do this in hope of making people smile with a momentary distraction from the daily grind."

The Tape - November 2010

1. Alam 

KL, MY/Mel, AU- Alam regularly plays in both Kuala Lumpur & Melbourne throughout the year. He has played alongside many international Dj's - Anne Savage, Phil K, Nick Warren etc. This mix has a very slow cool chill-out blend of house and downtempo soul vibes - defines what truly is lounge-styled music.

2. Bob Pruitt

Greenfield, MA, US - Nothing much can be gathered about Bob Pruitt, but the song "My Father Is" has such a chilling reverence for God in Christian-folk music style. The song partially acts like a Hymn, and sounding modern at the same time - something I've never listened before.

My Father Is



3. Breakdown

LA, US - The brothers, Josh & Matt are remix combo called 'Breakdown', creating electronic music that has been reaching great success in the past few years. "We started working together, since I had a lot of experience going through music to DJ, I could point out what wasn't in the right place, and then Matt, with experience on the engineering side, could fix it," says Josh. Their music reflects that they are serious artistes, and in no time, I believe they will call the attention of much bigger acts. A solid remix, one that  most Dj's would definitely like.
