Moonstarr

Profile

When he’s not running his label Public Transit Recordings, Moonstarr (aka Kevin Moon) is either breaking beats live on the P.A. or hunkered down behind closed doors over his synths, drum machines, and samplers to bang out mind-melding beats.

Citing musical influences as diverse as Detroit techno, hip hop, bossa nova, Indian classical, and jazz, Moonstarr's sound has continuously evolved with releases on such noteworthy labels as Sonar Kollectiv, Guidance, Twisted Funk, Planet E, MPS, Compost, Do Right! Music and of course Public Transit Recordings. He has also collaborated on musical projects for indie soul, electronic, and jazz heavyweights such as Jazzanova, Recloose, 4Hero, Ennio Morricone, A:XUS, LAL, and Ivana Santilli.

His trademark live performances have graced such distinguished venues as London UK's legendary CO-OP club night, San Francisco's Beta Lounge, and the eclectic Andy Warhol Museum in Pittsburgh, to name but a few.
