  Masters at Work - Biography - AOL Music
Besides their productions, remixes and appearances as Masters at Work, Vega and/or Gonzalez are also involved in a good dozen other projects (including Nuyorican Soul, KenLou, the Bucketheads, and the Untouchables), many of which appear on the duo's own MAW Records label.
Gonzalez, working as a mobile DJ with a team calling themselves the Masters at Work, founded his own Dope Wax Records and worked on production for all of the major New York dance labels: Strictly Rhythm, Nervous, Cutting and Big Beat.
In early 1997, the MAW duo issued the most high-profile release of their career (at least in terms of the music establishment), a self-titled full-length as Nuyorican Soul.

 Masters At Work
It's hard to characterize their sound because they work hard to keep from being pigeonholed, grabbing elements from disco, house, salsa, fusion, techno and Latin hip hop (which is sort of a misnomer, it's a New York-based form of uptempo synth dance/pop).
And the one album by MAW pseudo-group Nuyorican Soul is definitely worth a listen, regardless of your genre affilations.
Though there are nods to other genres (the reggae toast "Work"), mostly this is "deep house," which translates to "disco with no horns or strings." There's a parade of guest vocalists including James Ingram, Patti Austin, Stephanie Mills, Luis Salinas, and some people I don't know: Billie, Lynae, Wunmi.
