Fred P aka Black Jazz Consortium began his education in the world of sound sculpting in the late 80′s in his home in Flatbush. Collecting old broken cassette decks and repairing them was more than a hobby. It resulted in first experiments with sound and learning the art of djing. As years went by Fred quietly continued to build his musical vocabulary as a artist and producer. Doing demos and making beats for emerging Hip Hop artist from Brooklyn as well as rhythm programming for the late Noel Pointer in the early 90′s opened a world to Fred. The studio became his second home.
Choosing to present rawness over the pristine, substance over style and vibe over formula is the very definition of the projects he brings to life as Black Jazz Consortium. Fred built an extensive and humble discography spanning a plethora of fine labels. Most noticeably the legendary DJ Jus Ed’s Underground Quality. Since Fred has started his own imprint Soul People Music/Earth Tones. Fred P continues to record and build, taking his music and vision to the masses worldwide threw touring and his weekly show on Motionfm.com.
