DJ Tyree Cooper has been a proactive element of the music industry since the beginning of house music back in 1986. Now the veteran teams up with newcomer UK producer and DJ Bobby Starrr as the Berlin-based combo Jack The Box. Side A shows the rare craftsmanship Tyree Cooper and Bobby Starrr have to offer. Their different backgrounds emerge as their strength, resulting in an album that is truly Chicago-inspired house with a contemporary vibe. This is not the type of house music that you need to create a new buzzword for. This is solid house. Soulful, emotional, intense, refreshingly raw at times, and always respectful towards the history of electronic music. It reflects truly who Bobby and Tyree are as DJs and as people. It is honest. On stage, Jack The Box's undeniable charisma and enthusiasm for deep, Chicago-inspired yet contemporary house music and their flawless track record of successful parties has garnered Tyree Cooper and Bobby Starrr a distinguished reputation amongst a remarkably high caliber of international house veterans which they have invited to their regular parties at Kater Holzig and Tresor in Berlin. The duo translates their party spirit into their first album output in their collaborations with Baby Bambaata (Jungle Brothers), Lady Blacktronika, and Mandel Turner, keeping a balance between deep and sexy instrumental jams and full-on party house.

Jack The Box is the collaboration between Chicago legend Tyree Cooper and Rob Stanley aka Bobby Starrr. The Tyree Cooper & Bobby Starrr EP starts with "The Way We Walk," a belter of a house track. Next up is "Got You" with vocals from Lady Blacktronika, and syncopated beats with a bass line. The EP ends with "AG3," a deep, dark and dirty tool for the late-night hours, showing some true Chi-town love.
