The Smokering is a Los Angeles, California music production duo Ed Vichnick and Jason D. Kuhar.
They produced 4 studio albums that year: "Escape From Van Nuys", "Fall Classic", "Poder A Le Gente", and "Tropicalifornia".
Over the next year and a half Ed & JDK would work with a handful of established artists including Lumis James (Bazerk, Pigface),[1] David "Mavis" Senescu (Cynic, ONLY),[2] and bassist Ray Burke (Bruce Dickinson of Iron Maiden, Live After Death).
Chillout, funk, trip hop, r&b, dub reggae, and even a touch of smooth jazz can be heard on this album.
The self-produced "Mellow Majestic" album offers a sophisticated blend of old school and nu-skool trip hop.
