Cashflow has big dreams for the future!

What started out as a hobby in 2001 has grown into a full-fledged production house for Cashflow Records.

Located in Cooreville Gardens, Cashflow Records has produced memorable songs throughout their years in the music business.

Consisting of Paul 'DJ Neil' Mitchell Jr, his brother Ernesto 'DJ X' Mitchell and Damion 'Mexican' Roy, as well as new members Kevin Slaughter and Mark Hize, Cashflow has big dreams for the future.

musical background

DJ Neil and DJ X are from a strong musical background, having been taught to play a number of instruments by their father Paul 'Father P' Mitchell. Their inborn love for music and 'Father P's tutelage set the stage for things to come.

DJ Neil told THE STAR recently, "Cashflow started out back in 2001 as a hobby. We were just doing mixed tapes at first like 'Unleash', until in 2005 we started production professionally."

Cashflow started off with rhythms such as 'Womba' with RDX, D' Angel, Delly Ranx, Mr Peppa and others, moving on to a one-drop rhythm called 'Guilty'. 'Guilty' earned the crew their first major credit, getting two hit songs in Japan including Souljah's (Konshens and his brother Delus) Pon Di Corner and Iwan's Can't Stop Reggae Music.

Other rhythms followed like 'Teardrops' and a major single with Winner from Konshens. However, it was last year's 'Better Life' rhythm that DJ Neil credited as the production crew's biggest break thus far. 'Better Life' spawned the hits like Life We Living from Vybz Kartel and The Realest Song from Konshens. Other songs soon followed including Weh Yuh Know Bout Mi from Kartel, featuring Indu.

In addition to producing, Cashflow also plays across the island. DJ Neil is the resident deejay for CVM's Hitlist, and also plays on Hot 102 while DJ X plays on jamvibes.com.

Cashflow followed up the 'Better Life' rhythm with the 'Glory' rhythm and has two dancehall rhythms ready to be released for the summer. DJ Neil said. "We have a crossover ting bout our work and we try to keep it mixed wid a little dancehall, stick to our roots of dancehall and reggae."

For the summer Cashflow will be releasing the 'Pleasure' rhythm which features Konshens, Delus, Darrio, Christopher Martin, Gyptian and Ce'Cile. There is 'The Employer' rhythm, featuring Ryno di Stinger, Lisa Hyper, the Gully Squad, ZJ Liquid and Milk.

For the future, the crew hopes to cross over on an international level, bringing its sound to the world.
