Downbeat house and uptempo soul music from one of the Motor City’s underground stalwarts. Live in the mix at Life in Brighton.
Mr. Pittman’s name appeared to a wider audience for the first time in 1999. _(album-title)Essential Selections Vol. 1_ name checked him as co-producer on _(artist-name)Theo Parrish_’s decisive Sound Signature imprint and as one to watch. Since then, _(artist-name)Marcellus Pittman_ showed his talent as the paradoxical fourth member of the _(artist-name)Three Chairs_ (_(artist-name)Rick Wilhite_, _(artist-name)Kenny Dixon Jr._ and Theo Parrish), for _(artist-name)Omar-S_’ FXHE Records with brilliant solo releases and finally on his own Unirhythm outfit. Rooted in the Motor City’s tradition of downbeat house and uptempo soul music, the man plays all across the board, sounding like _(artist-name)Ken Collier_ and _(artist-name)Mojo_ meeting up - not in an elevator - but behind the turntables. To paraphrase one of Pittman’s most expressive moments: “Come See” for yourself.
