HUMAN ERROR CLUB is Diego Gaeta, Jesse Justice, and Mekala Session. Two keyboardists and a drummer, longtime musician friends hailing from different corners of Los Angeles’ vast geography. They assembled in 2019 as a hotfix to a recurring dilemma: bassists are busy, often unavailable. What was meant to be a one-off for the underground series BackbeatLA turned into a regular thing. Two months later, they were in the studio, recording what would become their debut album.
Diego Gaeta is a jazz-trained pianist with a restless harmonic imagination, who also produces under the alias Club Diego. Jesse Justice honed his chops making beats, before trading his MPC for a Fender Rhodes, maintaining his producer ear for texture and detail. Mekala Session, raised in Leimert Park, studied under the legendary drummer Billy Higgins, and also leads the Pan Afrikan Peoples Arkestra.
HUMAN ERROR CLUB AT KENNY'S HOUSE is the group’s first release on Backwoodz Studioz. The project emerged from three recording sessions that took place at Kenny Segal’s laboratory between 2021 and 2024. Segal, a mainstay in underground hip hop, opened not just his space but his full arsenal of gear and toys to the trio. The result is an album that bears Segal’s sonic fingerprints while allowing HUMAN ERROR CLUB to do what they do, all in the best interest of the music.
The sessions were pure improvisation, the trio’s defining compositional approach. Out of this comes a project grounded in exploration, bound by trust, mutual respect, and a shared musical vocabulary. A free take on hip hop, beats gone live; electronic-textured spiritual jazz; sound experiments bridging and pushing creative lineages forward.
Beyond just hosting, Kenny Segal engineered and produced, cutting roughly ten hours of raw improvised material into this album. He’s also the link to a constellation of features from the Backwoodz universe, the crème of the crop of underground rappers. These collaborations extend HUMAN ERROR CLUB’s musical family, each folding into the trio’s explorations. This synthy wild ride captures a band in motion; improvisation as method, not format; built on generative tension and honest craft.
