Condolences to the family and friends of The Deer aka J-1/Jovan Coleman, who sadly passed away in Sweden.
J-1 was family to HVW8 and recorded podcasts including the Super Sessions 2 which would turn into Master Blazter.
He will be remembered for his love of music, the music he left and being a good friend.

MASTER BLAZTER
Computer Jay, J-1 and D-F stepped the game up with a “more funk than jazz” Super Session recorded live at the HVW8 Art + Design Gallery. This grew into the group Master Blazter. Master Blazter demonstrates how the LA modern funk and boogie scene is starting to bubble and come together. This was the first time that these guys played as a group and it was a completely improvised session in front of a intimate crowd at the HVW8 Gallery. More to come.

MASTER BLAZTER: BLAZT OFF Mix by Kutmah – Podcast
MASTER BLAZTER: BLAZT OFF
BLAZT OFF, a mix by Los Angeles’ own DJ Kutmah, showcases the individual styles of Computer Jay, J1, and D-F. Collectively, they are known as Master Blazter. Individually, each is accomplished in his own right, and as a group, there is no stopping the funk they create.
Computer Jay develops hard hitting tracks built upon moog, rhodes and personally tweaked electro systems.
J1 provides the backbone of rhythm on drums, while equally being comfortable producing quality funk laced beats.
D-F adds his signature vocals and provides layers of deep funk with his own keyboards and keytar.
The countdown has begun….
Three musicians with their own distinctive styles have come together to form Master Blazter. Each individual is an integral part of the whole – each one necessary to keep funk music alive, taking it to unforeseen heights.
Strap yourself in…
3, 2, 1…
