In an article about him, the Washington Post said, “Eklund has become one of Washington’s most exciting dance music producers. This isn’t because he mixes styles from all over the world, but because he spent a lot of his young life learning how to talk to different kinds of people.”
Dawit, who also goes by the name David, went to George Washington University and studied international development, with a focus on Africa.
