This is our "Love Of" episode! Whether it's a laid-back gathering with Brazilian fare for Rick's birthday or a jubilant shindig with many friends, we discuss that it's the love intertwined in these moments that truly makes them shine.We go through a series of questions - what movie we love most, what TV show, what food we love most, what relationship we love most... it's a fun conversation and along the way, we're joined by Chris Rossetti, who teaches a different way to think of a question I pose... we love learning something new on All About The Joy! As we wrap up, we venture into the realm of family and friendships, discussing the poignant influence of both bloodline and chosen family in our lives. Rick and I share stories close to our hearts, exploring the fabric of relationships that shape us and the threads of TV shows, music and movies that weave into our beliefs and humor. Sit back, pour yourself a mug of your favorite beverage—perhaps not coffee if you're anything like our guest Chris, but join us as we unwrap the gift of connection, love, and the simple joys that life brings our way.(The song Lemonade that Chris references by Alex Boyé can be found at this link)Thank you for stopping by.

Julie and Alex Boyé are an interracial couple with 8 beautiful children. But 10 years ago, Julie received a nasty note which was dripping with contempt and vitriol because she married and had children with someone outside her race. It was a shock for Julie, who is white. But Alex, who is Black, was not surprised. Julie wrote a response to the letter writer 10 years later, which was published in the Deseret News. They talked with Boyd about that experience and the need for spaces to highlight Black achievements. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
This is a great way to start off 2022. We have an excellent guest mix from Kevin, the man responsible for "Cello Mood Swings" and "Not Seeing a Flower" which you can find here... https://www.mixcloud.com/lowlight/cello-mood-swings/ http://lowlightmixes.blogspot.com/2021/07/cello-mood-swings.html https://www.mixcloud.com/lowlight/not-seeing-is-a-flower/ http://lowlightmixes.blogspot.com/2020/07/not-seeing-is-flower.html For this mix Kevin collected a bunch of vocal and choral tracks & I mixed them together. Here's what he has to say about the mix: "The idea came from listening to Jonsi and Alex - Boy 1904, I realized that quite a few ambient artists used the voice to create a type of auditory ambience. A few hymns have been added and a couple of more classical based choral works. These songs are not about words but the sounds of the voices and the emotions they provoke. They have been chosen for their haunting mournful beauty. I hope you enjoy them." Thanks Kevin for an excellent collection of tracks! Cheers!

First, let me give my best wishes for 2010 to all of you!! What better way to start the new year than with a brand new mix ánd a brand new design (thanks Ingmar from Planet KL!)? The design change is symbolic, in a way: after publishing a lot of mixes in 2009, all of wich were created for radio broadcast, it is now time to take a further step and start publishing new mixes. "Miserere" is the first of these brand new mixes to be published. "Miserere" has taken its name from the concluding piece: Gregoria Allegri's Miserere, as performed by the Tallis Scholars. While working on this mix, I soon felt that this piece had to be the conclusion, and that it should not be combined with other pieces of music or environmental sounds.--- originally published on Ambientblog --- MISERERE PLAYLIST 0:00 Robert Hampson - Ahead Only the Stars- Vectors, 2009 Touch TO:710:10 Meredith Monk - Liquid Air- Mercy, 2002 Ecm 18291:14 Don Peyote - The Guardian- Eternal Now, 2009 Don Peyote Recordings DPY1CD0043:02 Martin O'Donnell, Michael Salvatori - The Rookie- Halo 3 ODST Soundtrack, 2009 Something Else6:47 Kreng - Slaapliedje- L'Autopsie Phénomenale de Dieu, 2009 Miasmah MIALP0107:16 The Caretaker - I Saw Your Face in a Dream- We'll all go riding on a Rainbow, 200x v/VM Test records VVMTCD157:29 Thomas Köner - 31 46 N 35 12 E Hour Ten- La Barca, 2009 Fario cd099:43 Nigel Samways - City of Gas Streetlamps- Veilleur de Nuit, 2009 Experimedia EXP05110:09 Rafael Anton Irrisarri - Still- Musique Pour Statues Menhirs, 2009 Arbouse recording arbou2612:58 Michel Banabila - Tape (Mix 2)- Changing Structures, 2009 soundcloud13:22 Jóhann Jóhannsson - The Flat- And in the endless Pause there came the sound of Bees, 2009 Type Type64LP16:02 Jónsi & Alex - Sleeping Giant- Riceboy Sleeps, 2009 Parlophone 509999630022017:00 Michel Banabila - Zeer Duister (voor Peter van Cooten)- Not on album, 2007 unreleased17:29 Kreng - Mythobarbital- L'Autopsie Phénomenale de Dieu, 2009 Miasmah MIALP01019:06 Benjamin Dauer - Murmur- Ceci N'Est pas une Pipe, 2009 Public Space Labs PS01021:20 Taylor Deupree - 6 A.M.- Favourite Places 1, 2007 Audiobulb 2007 AB01622:33 Robert Hampson - Ahead- Only the Stars - Vectors, 2009 Touch TO:7124:04 Franz Hautzinger - Deep T.- Gomberg II, 2007 Loewenhertz 01825:25 Franz Hautzinger - Fahne- Gomberg II, 2007 Loewenhertz 01826:20 Murcof - Isaías IV- La Sangre Illuminada, 2009 Intolerancia Records28:11 Exuviae - Wane and Flicker- Intrinsic Luminance, 2009 Endless Ascent ea00730:15 Jónsi & Alex - Boy 1904- Riceboy Sleeps, 2009 Parlophone 509999630022033:22 Sleep Research Facility - Dark Side of the Lune- Au Clair de La Lune, 2009 Infrequency 00534:05 Else Marie Pade - Illustrations - The Palace of the Sea King- Water-colours of the Sea, 2009 Dacapo Records 8.22654434:44 Netherworld - Jostedaal- Zaum, 2009 Psychonavigation Records PSY02937:02 Else Marie Pade - Illustrations - The Palace of the Sea King- Water-colours of the Sea, 2009 Dacapo Records 8.22654437:41 Ronald van der Meijs - Under the Dream- Private collection, 2009 unreleased39:05 Lawrence English - Quiet Planigale- Favourite Places 2, 2009 Audiobulb AB02643:27 Clint Mansell - We're Not Programs, Gerty, We're People- Moon OST, 2009 Black Records CMCD00144:15 Elegi - Fandens Bre- Varde, 2009 Miasmah MIACD00945:18 Hildur Gudnadottir - Unveiled- Without Sinking, 2009 Touch TO:7045:31 Hildur Gudnadottir - Elevation- Without Sinking, 2009 Touch TO:7047:35 Last Days - Thoughts of Alice- The Safety of the North, 2009 n5MD MD16650:12 Wixel - Jotunheimen- Norway, 2009 (august) 2009.bandcamp.com51:08 Scanner - Leoni- Consegnaci, Bambina, I Tuoi Occhi, 2009 Horus Music51:37 Robert Henke - Indigo_Transform- Indigo_Transform, 2009 Imbalance Computer Music ICM 0852:46 Mathew Adkins - Sea Soundscape- [60] Project, 2008 Impreintes digitales IMED089855:00 Roland Etzin - On the Bus- Recorded in the Field by…, 2006 Gruenrekorder Gruen03355:13 Elian - It was over, just like that- And Then, One Day, It was over, just like that, 2008 Trans>Parent Radiation Trans01255:20 Murcof - Eugenio- La sangre Iluminada, 2009 Intolerancia Records56:30 The Caretaker - Past Life Regression- Persistent Repetition of Phrases, 2008 History Always Favours the Winners HAFTWDL00357:07 The Gentleman Losers - Oblivion's Tide- Dustland, 2009 City Centre Offices TowerblockCD04357:50 Aaron Ximm (The Quiet American) - Starboard- Maritime Suite, 200x self-released58:00 The Tallis Scholars - Gregorio Allegri - Miserere (3 fragments)- Allegri: Miserere, 2005 Gimsell Records GIMSE401

From the opening shout of the Mormon Tabernacle Choir on "Saints Bound for Heaven" you can hear the millennial fervor and frontier optimism of 19th century America leaping right out of this marvelous collection of time-tested hymns, as well as the hopeful harmony of the spirituals which comforted a people waiting for deliverance— including the heartbreaking beautiful "I Want Jesus to Walk With Me," featuring soloist Alex Boyé.Sharing highlights from a pipe-and-drums "Amazing Grace" to the new signature tune in their repertoire, "Come Thou Fount of Every Blessing," Tabernacle Choir Music Director Dr. Mack Wilberg, talks about what defines a folk hymn, choosing these particular pieces, and why they resonate with us still today.That's this week on The Cricket and Seagull...
London-born singer Alex Boyé may be the only member of The Mormon Tabernacle Choir to have had a record contract as a performer in a successful pop boy band in Europe, but one thing he shares with his fellow choir members is their passion for praising the Lord in song.With his new solo release, "Spirit," Alex shares both originals and contemporary Christian favorites with a soulful style that shows why he just won Pearl Awards for Best Contemporary Recorded Song ("Build the World") and Performing Artist of the Year from the Faith Centered Music Association.That's this week on The Cricket and Seagull...
