Troker can be considered one of the most important exporters of new music in Mexico, "one of the twenty Mexican artists breaking boundaries"(- Rolling Stone). Brewed in the land of tequila, the sextet has created a mix of instrumental sounds that come from jazz, funk, progressive rock and the popular tradition of mariachi, all this collided by a turntable that throws scratches as fresh whiffs into this peculiar mix.
The band’s proposal is at times sublime and at other dangerous, it is "noisy, chaotic, sprawling, messy, all together is wonderful"(- All About Jazz). Far from jazz for elevators, Troker manages to travel in complete freedom between the complex and the precise, creating "immediately infectious tunes and energetic live show"(- The Huffington Post).
Shon Dervis and Isaiah Spencer is an amazing odyssey of beat science and sound showcasing the artistry of DJ/producer Shon Dervis, mixed with the innate concepts applied by drummer Isaiah Spencer leading you on a head-bobbing, body-rocking journey sure to keep you moving!
