Being from San Diego I have to blow Freddie up. This guys sound is like no other. Simply, its perfect. Go online and download all his albums, singles, mixes, podcasts, etc...
I guarantee you will love it. All okay players, this is right up (y)our alley. Been on Freddie for 3 years now and he is in my rotation as much as Foreign Exchange and The Roots.
Check him out at the Beat Kitchen if you're ever in SD but check the mellow orange site for info.
