Music has come to play a significant role in the development of human recreation and entertainment in the past decades.

Exceedingly aware of music’s role to the present generation (and indeed to the past ages and those yet to come), Uncle James worked hard to reinvent its current reputation and defy social norms by bringing to the table what only genuine feeling and honest emotions could ever be.
