Ralph Session

Within house music, the classic soulful sound of New York and the raw, cut-up shuffle of Chicago have inspired many producers. But it takes a certain combination of talent, skill and experience to make contemporary house records that draw on these influences whilst also doing justice to the original pioneers. Native New Yorker Ralph Session is a producer and DJ well placed to expertly perform this role.
Running his Half Assed Records imprint has also given Ralph a chance to pursue his own particular vision of house music which has reaped support from across the DJ spectrum including Danny Krivit, The Black Madonna, Night- mares On Wax, Kai Alce, Honey Dijon, Black Loops, Francois K, Hector Romero, Luke Solomon, and Detroit Swindle.
The musicality and skippy rhythms of NY house and the raw and relentless beats of Chicago, mixing up the two traditions to create an intoxicating, contemporary combination. Years spent on the dance floors of NYC link into his production style and the ability to feel what dancers really need from a piece of music is intrinsic to his work. Ralph’s also a fully qualified audio engineer and merges the meticulous approach of a pro with a free and loose composition style, a combination that has proved extremely effective.
Drawing all these influences together, Ralph Session is a DJ and producer who puts out a cutting-edge take on the classic US house template, producing music that DJs love and dancers can’t resist.
