The experience of going beyond the physical realm and returning to it was invigorating at the very least, and redemptive at its best. With that,love has been harvested from my innermost parts as I am now living the dream, and no longer just surviving. The songs in this mix reflect that love as expressed in tunes from Quincy Jones,Musiq Soulchild, Imani Uzuri and the heartfelt jam called "Lifelines" as sung by Dornik from Zo!'s latest release Skybreak". With that...be empowered,be still and be one with the all as you enjoy these flavors. Namaste.

    The participants of the ultimate embrace have the inclination to coalesce they are first enticed, intrigued and engaged. Just like a kick and a snare,a scent and/or a stare may be all that is necessary for a chemical reaction to become a spontaneous combustion. This selector has prepared an appetizer for grazing in the grass at this summer's Atlanta Jazz Festival. This blend is both cool and spicy,and subdued yet energetic:with a sprinkle of percussion, Mambo and lush chords...featuring tunes by The Foreign Exchange and Marc Cary,as well as Detroit's Dwele and Atlanta's own Justin Gilbert. Lizz Wright sways as Marvin Gaye swoons,with the opening track providing an awesome Jazz trip. Enjoy! Floating- Groove Collective Smoke & Coffee - Justin C Gilbert 7th Ave North- Marc Cary Open Your Eyes You Can Fly- Lizz Wright All The Kisses(Ahmed Sirour mix)- The Foreign Exchange Incredible - Wagon Cooking Yeah- Blue Six Yemaya- Irakere ft.

    Now that the retrograde is behind us, so are the things that are better off left there. A few things that have come and gone may very well become relics, some fossils, and others potentially end up in museums, documenting landmarks from eras of yesteryear. The latter, after have been found intriguing and harvested by an eager curator, become exhibits and experiences for those that appreciate the preservation of precious things. If there is nothing new under the Sun, then there should be no problem accepting the fact that the songs contained in this aural elixir are anything but that. Ironically, dated… they are not. Therein lies the beauty of being ahead of one's time. Several works represented here are more than a decade beyond their original release years, yet they are light years away from many tunes heard in today's conventional establishments,thus providing the reason, and the rhyme for the alternative. This kosmik occasion includes Africans, Asians,Australians and Europeans, representing a wide spectrum for the palette. Headbangers by Taylor McFerrin and E.Badu envelop broken joints by UK heroes the Bugz, Jazzanova and Beady Belle. ATLien Justin C. Gilbert's keys and the STLien Bradd Young's vocals make for a proper romp in the sack, after the frequency foreplay paves the way by third eye(and ear) by openers from other dimensional GB, and Jesse Fischer's melted veins. The die and spell has been cast, come get a fix. Enjoy... 68th Dimension- GB Vein Melter- Jesse Fischer & Sly5thAve Decisions- Taylor McFerrin ft. Emily King So Sweet- Brad Young By Fire- Hiatus Kaiyote Mister Magic- Lauren Desberg Soulful Jazzy House- Jafrosax ft. Yukimi Nagano Mister Magic- Lauren Desberg Moderation(extended remix)- Beady Belle No Use (Lensco remix)- Jazzanova ft. Clara Hil Red Handed- Bugz in the Attic The Cosmic Laws- P'taah ft. Monday Michiru Sun Moon Child- Imani Uzuri Gimme What You Got - Justin C. Gilbert Don't Explain (Dzihan & Kamien Remix)- Billie Holiday Sweet Melodies- Julie Dexter Hello- Erykah Badu ft.

    Global Warmth: Holidaze (LEITMOTIF)

    Play Episode Listen Later Dec 8, 2015 66:26


    So, it would appear that this selector likes a certain set of sounds, rhythms, and time signatures in the 'records' that makes up the sum of a particular ' collection'. These similarities often resonate with a season or spell,such as the fall making way for winter, and during these times it's quite possible to find oneself shifting between hopeless romantic and melancholy optimist. Brown crumpled leaves and crisp clean air pair well with waltzes and suites, breaks and bonus beats like the ones you may hear here by international acts Koop & Cecelia Stalin, Kyoto Jazz Massive & Nicola Conte, or perhaps PPP,Moonchild, The Roots and Atlanta's Dangerfeel Newbies plus Justin C. Gilbert. There are also some Acid Jazzy Soulful gems in the form of Laurnea(produced by Omar from the UK), and turntablism from Jazzy Jeff appearing with Nuyorican Soul. The first Holidaze mix was recorded five years ago and while the apparent leitmotif in this case are the recurring artists in the episodes, the not so obvious one is the warm fuzzy feeling which invokes warm beverages, fireplaces and closeness with loved ones. With that, Namaste and Uangaze...enjoy!

    The spirit and/or soul of mankind throughout time has often been considered elusive, a destination of sorts only available to the mystic or perhaps an unattainable state of profundity. It would seem that enlightenment is a place where ascended masters in 'Heaven' dwell, yet this ideology is a self inflicted mental handicap. As long as being deep is not an option for the average human being then the being remains average at best. This podcaster would like to present an alternative to that school of thought, and open the gates to boldly go where no mix has gone before, into the ether via your eardrums. I profess that you are the master of your destiny. The one you've been waiting for is in the mirror, asking for your allowance to come forth. This episode could very well assist with a breakthrough, with gems from Jazzanova, Ibeyi and Atlanta's Anthony David. D'Angelo, Moonchild, and Groove Collective also add eclectic grooves as well as a haunting duet from father and son, Bobby and Taylor McFerrin. P'taah (aka Chris Bræn) describes the Sun's Departure just after the supermoon has come and gone. Celestial songs await you, press play and enjoy! Namaste.

    Knocturnal Sunshine: Picture Perfect

    Play Episode Listen Later Aug 14, 2015 75:11


    It has been said that one picture can say a thousand words, and if that is so then it is probably safe to assume that mental pictures could very well speak thousands exponentially. Such is par for the course as pictures themselves are but mere images or vibrations slowed down and captured, and are often accompanied by an audible component. Music, for me, when mixed live or in a recording is usually a collage of days gone by as well as the possibility of those yet to come, perhaps in an alternate reality or fantasy complete with an aroma,and an undeniable, underlying emotional texture. As my solar return is on the horizon, I reflect on the past year, with all of its triumphs and defeats, lessons and losses, as well as those from times past, including a five year marker,and what I was doing twenty years ago. All of it combined calls for a gratitudinous,regretful,happy yet melancholy array of lush chords and basslines, creating a rollercoaster ride of feeling with several possible alternate endings. The beauty of art is just that. It may start as one thing but is left for interpretation by its beholders, and can invoke infinite possibilities as to its meaning. With that, I will allow these tunes to describe scenarios with words spoken and some not, as I project my imprint into the psyche of those that dare to daydream. Gems from groups Koop, Sonzeira, & Hiatus Kaiyote only skim the surface of the treasures embedded in this mix, as Atlanta based artists like Gwen Bunn, Khari Cabral Simmons, Emdee Brown and Carmen Rodgers have also influenced my pallette in the recent past, making the flavors sizzle that much more. Speaking of which, both nuyorican and UK Soul make their way into the pot as well for the well rounded travelers' appetite, and I do hope that it is whet accordingly. Indulge. Imbibe. Injoy. One love.

    The new year is upon us. Yes,the real new year,not the plagued by cold fronts and blizzards, but the time of year when flowers are in bloom, birds harmonize in unison, and the air is breathable. With it comes the merging of frequencies where those that were formerly in hibernation rise from their cocoons and take flight. This mix is both hot and cool, prompting one to dance, or perhaps sway while sitting still. Percussion and more is found with Yoruba Records gems along with UK stars 4 Hero and Omar,KJM, Ben Westbeech and an oldie but goodie for Dorian... as these passing days make up this thing called life. Shazzam the tracks, support the artists, spread liberally,and repeat.NAMASTE!

    Silence is golden, as are the the nuggets in the form of spaces in between the notes while listening to or playing music. So much more does the unsaid do to help make phrasings understood, the telepathy of tunes, if you would. And yet there is even so much more being unsaid during our daily comings and goings, but somehow we get it, by listening intently, with our inner parts. This abstract blend of ingredients will challenge you to do the same, hearing without hearing certain things. The songs speak for themselves as they float into the ethers... Georgia Anne Muldrow, Moonchild, and Louie Vega's Elements Of Life, with a sprinkle of some of the UK's finest acts,Jamiroquai, Reel People plus MDCL who takes us to his ceremonius Church of groove. Get planted, we're diggin' deeper. Namaste.

    The History... Ever since there was electricity in the form of airwaves, the world has sought to communicate and project thoughts, feelings, and vibrations, with the hope of a worthy recipient on the opposite end to absorb the message. Conventional radio, originally broadcasted via towers and transmitters, became a current which could be felt and interpreted with wire antennae. This medium, often commercially driven, lucrative, and at times corrupt in practice saw its ascent, peak, and the beginning of its decline all during the 20th century. Then… the current went underground. The desire and need to be free of a federally controlled, and caste system-like monopoly gave birth to an assortment of alternative means for one to be heard. The advent of coaxial cable, fiber optics, and data flowing through phone lines revolutionized the way information, and more importantly, music… was sent and received. The Soul made a breakthrough. The Future… Satellite, cable and now Internet radio, while different in their applications, yet similar in intent, have slain the all-encompassing ogre and put the power back into the hands of the people it was meant to serve. YOU! KNOC Radio is the natural progression and brainchild of the people. KNOC (Keep Nourishing Our Communities) has emerged from the rubble to provide a voice for the unheard. Encouragement of individual expression and attentiveness to one’s Soul is the model for the next millennium through quality programs on and offline, artistic endeavors and audio on demand. A nu standard in radio has arrived. My first internet based radio show was called "Eklektika", co-hosted with comedian/filmmaker Kenny Kinds, and afterwards there was "Knocturnal Sunshine", a ray of light in the night, featuring Soul, Acid Jazz, Lounge and more. I buried the show after the passing of a dear friend at the hands of the police, and it is now reborn,infused with healing energy to make the world a better place from my stance of artivism. Indulge in this mix as it blurs genres, color lines, and periods in time....some new,some olde, an exploration at its best. No track list will be put up, if you like a song, Shazzam it, then buy it. That is all...enjoy. (Spoiler alert: Jose James, Fertile Ground, Roni Size, Marc Cary, and a couple of songs regarding the act of kissing all appear here...)

    The 'spiritual' realm is term that is perpetually elusive to most, yet is a constant dwelling place for some others. For those that reside in innerspace, it is not uncommon to convey its magnificence to destinations that are less than stellar, hoping to offer a glimpse of something...more. Those of us that are charged with this task eagerly deliver the goods, intact and unadulterated so that the recipients of the vibrations are attuned accordingly. This blend of Soul, Salsa, and (Acid)Jazz features tunes from nu skool genre benders Slakah the Beatchild and Taylor McFerrin, Soul from Dwele and D'angelo, Asian Electronica from Kyoto Jazz Massive and Yukihiro Fukutomi, and Nuyorican flavor from Elements of Life with a special remix of the classic straight ahead tune "Take five" originally recorded by Dave Brubeck. If you so happen to like it, support it, however you can. You have the power, so invoke it.

    There is a force in the world,unseen but not undetected. It has been observed by scientists, written of by scribes, invoked by mystics, and transduced by artists. It moves some, and is immovable to others. All is an extension of it,as all was and is it simultaneously. You know it when you feel it,and even when you pretend not to. It's in this mix,and in your hearts, and as you allow it to slide into your earholes...embrace it. This experiment in non-genre centric eccentricity is laden with gems from the likes of Robert Glasper, Reel People,Jose James, Mos (diggity Def,and Bahamadia, as well as one of my new favorite acts...Moonchild. It's more than music, it's magnanimous, it's magic. Namaste.

    Summer has come and gone,so have several people places and things. Things that once were are no more,like the leaves in the trees...having different colors and different purposes, an inevitable change which is the way the world works. As I compiled the tunes for this episode,many things changed from the order of the songs to the songs themselves as I too went through a metamorphosis in search of purpose. The mission was accomplished,yet again in the foothills of suburban Georgia,through rays of sun,and buckets of rain. Calm,then storms,then calm again...unsettling yet comfortable the journey was. This mix echoes the waves and undercurrents of becoming anew,all over again. So please strap in and find yourself,somewhere in the midst of it all; enjoy.

What was found exceeded my expectations, thus resulting in a host of experiences, friends and memories that have become near and dear to the heart region. The pulse,heartbeat and community of House music lovers in Atlanta became a lifestyle and as a yearly celebration of this culture approaches in a park that I've been in love with for nearly two decades I have been inspired to celebrate it in this mix,done live at Lola in St.Louis.
