Album Notes

The CD Step into the light is by a new artist on the scene. EJ has poured a lifetime of experiences in this inspirational medley of songs. The tracks cover a wide range of musical likes from traditional gospel (Soldier, Strong enough) a Contemporary Christian style (Lord, your love is good enough, On my Knees), and even an R&B/ Pop/ Hip-Hop feel (Step into the light, The other side of the rainbow, Mountains, and Do Lord remember me). It also gives you some Latin, and a little Caribbean rhythm (Preludio no mas muriendoce, No more Dying, and I'll always love you). His message remains the same throughout the album. We need to see our need for God in every aspect of our lives because God loves us and will always come through for us. Be sure to check out this soulful and uplifting album.

EJ started EJ Productions while living in Los Angles in 1990. He spent hours learning the trade with several of the local artists in various studios. After moving to North Carolina in 1992, he continued writing, arranging and producing music for local artists. For the past year and half, his main focus has been writing and producing his own CD - "Step Into The Light". He is using the talents God has given him to share his insights and convictions about God's unfailing love and the many blessings he has received. As you listen to the words and music, allow yourself to be drawn ever closer to our Father.

EJ has been in the Triangle area for the last 14 years. He is currently living in Durham with Penny his wife of 16 years and 2 children - Marcus and Symone.
