Music

Mecca:83 aka Rise aka 1/3 of Redefinition aka 1/4 of Alexis Davis....

Jazz and Soul are the foundation. For the past decade i’ve buried myself in stacks of old records and vintage synths, carving out a niche for my sounds to live in. I’ve recorded under numerous aliases during this time - from creating sample based Jazz music as Rise, to interspersing live instrumentation with Hip Hop beats as Mecca:83 and as part of the group Redefinition.

To date i’ve released 3 full length albums as well as numerous EPs and singles in Vinyl, CD and Digital Formats. You can find my music on labels such as Futuristica Music, RecordBreakin, Expansions and MyFirstMoth to name a few.

Discography.

Design.

As well as spending an inordinate amount of time with drum machines and synths, i’m also a dab hand with writing HTML mark up and designing in Adobe Creative Cloud.
