The consistent theme in Green Velvet’s artistry is change. The modern-day renaissance man has explored most every genre, with forays into comedy not even beyond his remit. Childhood obsessions with science fiction, video games and fantasy worlds go a long way to explaining his output today, but the “aha” moment comes upon learning his father was a Chicago house DJ. The disco-drenched, synth-heavy, ’70s-souled magic underscores everything Green Velvet releases, and his vocal taglines have become legendary in clubland.
