Chris Barbosa

Some of Barbosa's musical influences were Arthur Baker and John Robie, the duo that invented electro-funk with their production of Afrika Bambaataa's "Planet Rock".

Later that year, he teamed up with Mark Liggett to produce a vocal version of "Fire and Ice", the instrumental track of "Let the Music Play".

It had a more Latin American-based rhythm with a heavy syncopated drum sound than the records produced by Baker and Robie.

These artists included Nolan Thomas on "Yo Little Brother", Jay Novelle on "If This Ain't Love" and Xena on "On the Upside".

Barbosa also played keyboards, programmed sequencers and produced Robin Gibb's album, Secret Agent.

Barbosa found chart success in 1990 with Lamond's "Bad of the Heart", which hit the Billboard Top 100 and peaked at No.

Barbosa served as the Director of Multimedia Services at Wyckoff Heights Medical Center in New York City from 2006 to 2012.

[citation needed] He volunteered at IEC House of Worship where he was a camera operator, and a producer/master control operator/engineer utilizing a NewTek Tri Caster 855 Live Multi-Camera Video Production system.
