His soulful, boundary-pushing work has been featured with: The Pan Afrikan Peoples Arkestra (founded by the iconic pianist Horace Tapscott), the trio Human Error Club, Black Nile (Aaron and Lawrence Shaw), Carlos Niño, and fellow SoCal keyboard/producer Lionmilk (Moki Kawaguchi).

Recently, Diego appeared on Andre 3000’s New Blue Sun, and his single “Earthseed” featured on NTS and Dublab, part of Leaving Records’ fire-relief compilation Staying. 🎷
