What a fun feature on Jeffrey and Poet and/the Bench in Marin Living Magazine. So honored to be included. Especially for those not in the area, isn't the Marin Civic Center by Frank Lloyd Wright stunning?!!

Listen to our latest DJ collaboration Emerge : Awaken with San Diego-based DJ Macoe Swett, known fondly as Macoe.

"This collection of songs dips into the heartache of the past year, but also the beauty. We learned a lot about the world, but perhaps even more about ourselves. I tend to choose songs based on their individual merits rather than their genre, and this mix is no different, so dive into this eclectic collection of ballads and beats and I'll meet you on the other side." ~ Macoe

Escape! Listen to our first mixtape! Link in bio. Born out of a love for music to transport you, this collaboration between us + Marlon Regis aka gives birth to the theme, HOME/DAY. The playlist carries you through from sunrise to sunset.
We love how the Caribbean rhythms of Marlon's heritage combine with his curated mix of soulful, upbeat vibes to create a soundtrack to your everyday. A daytime mix for your working-from-home backdrops, chilling with your pod, windows down day trips and road trip good vibes.  
We chose Home as our first theme—the “sense of place” that comes from identity—personal, cultural and place identity we prescribe to of a real or imagined state of harmony and centeredness.
Author, director and human rights activist Susan Sontag wrote in her journal at age 14, “Music is at once the most wonderful, the most alive of all the arts — it is the most abstract, the most perfect, the most pure — and the most sensual. I listen with my body and it is my body that aches in response to the passion and pathos embodied in this music.”
For the love of a good beat, Enjoy!
We are showcasing Marlon's music curation talents as a free streaming, non-commercial gift of good vibes.
