Producer Michael Callon - Michael has been creating music since the late 90's where he began as a singer and songwriter in a punk band. In 2002 his attraction to electronic dance music found him DJing regularly in the Los Angeles nightlife circuit, and in 2007 producing electronic dance music as well. Since then Michael's creative passion has led him to his second commercial release. The 'Triangles and Shit EP' consists of two dance-floor-creating, mood-moving songs, 'Everybody Give' and 'Anytime Dancer'. 'Everybody Give' is a spacious, deep, hypnotic and funky groove with an uplifting and positive lyric that flows in a verse chorus form. It works well in both big room and intimate lounge settings. 'Anytime Dancer' is a somewhat abstract funky driver with a techy underlying pattern. It has a brilliant fun lyrical sample in regards to dancing that will make you 'do whatever you wanna do'.
