Monsieur Job are a Columbian collective lead by Cali based producer and songwriter Toby Holguin . Their eclectic mix of chill-out, breakbeat, hip-hop, dub, reggaetón and latin jazz was displayed to a great extent on debut album Bass Pa$$i , as well as it's subsequent follow up releases.

You may not have heard of Gary Lefkowith , but you of course know Elvis Presley, Mick Jagger and Fleetwood Mac, just a few of the artists he has been a p
