Producer Mike Paradinas has used the Jake Slazenger alias as a sideline from his prime material (as µ-Ziq) to explore throwback electro-funk. Slaz made his first appearance on 1995's MakesARacket, recorded for Clear Records. A year later, he was back with Das Ist Ein Groovy Beat Ja? on Warp. [See Also: Kid Spatula, µ-Ziq] ~ John Bush
