Stretch has been an active remixer over the years and had a track on Dome Records for Vicki Young called Now That We’re Together which became an underground R&B hit at the start of the millennium, plus has produced other remixes for artists including Chanel and Kool G Rap. The enforced lockdown caused by the CoronaVirus disease has given him time to get back into the studio with production partner Mike Theory to work on their debut instrumental soulful hip hop album called Covid Cuts, which they will self-finance and put out a limited number of copies by Autumn 2020.
