Jose "Choco" Reynoso

Real Name:
Jose Reynoso
Profile:
New York house producer in close assosiation with the label groovin' records. House production is more his part-time work, as he normally is a engineer and remixer in the Hip-Hop scene. Started his career with keyboard sessions for Kurtis Blow. Over the 90's he has collaborated with Wu-Tang Clan, Guru, and even Rage Against The Machine.
His house music production started in the early 90's, and he produced several tracks for the Groovin' records label among others. But most notably for his wife Michelle Weeks with the underground classic Follow Your Dreams.
