Although I do some solo music, I'm still part of the Tacoma-based band, PrettyBoy Mafia.
Why this name?
"GEL" was the name I used for hi-scores name entry on arcade games. And it was easy to tag. "Featherweight" describes my physique. But don't get it twisted: I'm a lover, not a fighter.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
Everything in life depends on the contract.
Your influences?
My biggest influnces have been people and groups like Stevie Wonder, MJ, Sade, The Jets, The Gap Band, Maze and HELLA others. More recent influences include Common, A Tribe Called Quest, Erykah Badu, The Roots and D'Angelo.
Favorite spot?
I need to travel a bit more before I answer that.
Equipment used:
Mainly my good ol' self-made PC. I produce the beats in Fruity Loops Studio and record in Adobe Audition (formerly called Cool Edit Pro). But occasionally a borrow the Triton for more sounds.
