    Those bad boys from Brazil, DJ True and Miller Cruz, are back with

    another installment of ALMA (All for the Love of Music & Art) and this

    is a very festive one. Producer, Joann ‘Muzikbutrfly’ Jimenez and

    resident dj Miller Cruz will be celebrating their birthdays with a

    Haitian touch, as very special guest dj Jephte Guillaume will be

    blessing the decks and accompanying him are members of his Tet

    Kale Orchestra on the percussive side.

    Born in Haiti, but uprooted to Brooklyn, Jephte’s music transforms

    Vodun spirituality and African ancestry into something universally

    understood. His Brazilian influences have always been evident in his

    compositions For Spiritual Life, especially in his contributions to “Trip

    do Brasil 1 & 2” (Sony), and in the studio he has become a sought-

    after bassist and multi-instrumentalist by the likes of Sting, Mary J.

    Blige, Toni Braxton, Wyclef Jean, Slick Rick, and Glen Scott (to name

    just a few). Jephte’s critically acclaimed debut album “Voyage of

    Dreams” on his label, Tet Kale Records, was released to universal

    praise and audiences worldwide have been swept away by his dj

    sets.

    This leaves us all in store for another ALMA traditional, out-of-this

    world kinda night that will surely keep the groovesters jumpin’ to the

    wee hours of the morning. You don’t have to be Brazilian to drink and

    dance like one, and at this celebration . . . you’ll be expected to.
