In a world where musical borders and limits are being destroyed by art and culture's rapid dissemination, Trash Menagerie DJ/Contributor The Crooked Clef is a burgeoning DJ and scholar of heavy bass music, a global collection of low-end sounds that has little regard for the confines of genre or region.

Praised for his live mix series "Trash in the Bassment" for the Trash Menagerie blog, Sasha Frere-Jones of the New Yorker magazine calls the mixes, "swift, varied, well-curated and reliable delivery systems of pleasure."
