He is the son of internationally known jazz trumpeter Gary “El Buho” (the Owl) Gazaway from the Ozarks and Brazilian vocalist Tatiana Mindlin.[6] Gazaway has said that he was influenced by radio growing up including the local WRVU radio station which introduced him to many old jazz tunes as well as hip hop.{{cn|date=September 2016}} As a teen, Gazaway worked at computer shop which introduced him to programming.{{cn|date=September 2016}} Gazaway senior took his son on tour when Amerigo reached 17, which further drew him to a life of music.{{cn|date=September 2016}} After graduating from Middle Tennessee State University in 2011, Gazaway started The Soul Mates Project, a platform for his conceptual collaborations with his brother, Rickey Mindlin.[7][8] CareerUnder The Soul Mates project, Gazaway’s work has been called “legally iffy”[9] and often uses more than a dozen unauthorized samples from different artist. Frequently facing legal challenges for his work,[10] Gazaway has lectured on what he describes as "overly restrictive and unconstitutionally long copyright laws."[11] at the University of Southern California[12] and a Google Tech Talk: “Redefining the Remix with Amerigo Gazaway”. Gazaway’s first full-length instrumental album, Selective Hearing Vol. 1, was released in 2010 on the Cold Busted label and charted on Beatport’s top-selling Chill-Out sales Chart. Gazaway released his sophomore project, Fela Soul, in 2011. This was a mixture of the music of Afrobeat artist Fela Kuti and Hip-Hop group De La Soul.[13] In December of 2011, the album took top 5 ranking on both NPR and Soul Train’s year-end “Best of 2011” list.[14][15] One year later, Gazaway released his third album, Bizarre Tribe: A Quest to the Pharcyde.[16] Again Gazaway mixed the music of two significant music acts — this time A Tribe Called Quest and The Pharcyde.[17] Bizarre Tribe earned early praise from the Los Angeles Times, New York (magazine), and Okayplayer.[18][19][20] In 2014 Gazaway produced the album Yasiin Gaye, in which he presented an imaginary collaboration between Yasiin Bey and Marvin Gaye.[21][22] Gaining Marvin Gaye’s original multi-tracks, Gazaway was able to deconstruct and rebuild the samples to re-orchestrate the instrumentation into new arrangements.[23] The album earned Gazaway a five star review from BET[24] and praise from Marvin Gaye’s widow Janis Gaye.[25] As an emcee, Gazaway has released several singles, including I Can't Get Off of the Facebook in 2011.[26][27] StyleGazaway’s mash-up style remixes are created from a process known as “reverse-engineering,”[28] which heavily relies on a method of deconstructing and re-orchestrating original samples to bridge overlapping themes of two separate musician’s catalogues.[29] The resulting product has been described by the Los Angeles Times as “drawing a different design within a similar framework.”[18] References1. ^"Finding Fela Archives: The Best Fela Kuti Mashups".
