David Alvarado has been pivotal in the US West Coast house scene for over 10 years, taking a slightly more low-key approach to production and self-promotion than contemporaries like Derrick Carter or Doc Martin. His mixing style is likewise low-key, a good approach when dealing with this particular species of house music. The tracks are a mix of British (Jersey Street, To-Ka Project, Swag) and American (Kevin Yost, DJ Duke) with all the big player labels involved (Guidance, Junior, Naked, Yoshitoshi).
