Jesse Fischer and Sly5thAve let their imagination flow as leaders in a movement of innovative Jazz, a unique sound which can be heard throughout their retro-future approach towards interpreting the Headhunters classic "Watermelon Man". Whether or not your familiar with this tune, Jesse & Sly are here to give you a refreshing sound of music as they incorporate modern elements of Trap rhythm and bass with the cool 70's Jazz-Funk sound of Herbie Hancock and The Headhunters which they recreate beautifully.

Produced, arranged, and orchestrated by Jesse Fischer and Sly5thAve.
Engineered, mixed and mastered by Jesse Fischer at Electrik Indigo Studios, Brooklyn.
