[25:02] Ryan talks about how their music is visual, and Qasim Naquiv discusses the modular synthesis while they land on making music with what they have. [40:03] Listen to “The Curve” by Qasim Naqvi. KEY TAKEAWAYS: The difference between performing on stage and recording in a studio is night-and-day. When you find like-minded artists who appreciate each other's talents, you have a winning combination. Sometimes it’s the accident that makes the music. It’s called working with what you have. BIOGRAPHIES:: SON LUX BIO: From the start, Son Lux has operated as something akin to a sonic test kitchen. The Academy Award® and BAFTA-nominated band strives to question deeply held assumptions about how music is made and reconstruct it from a molecular level. What began as a solo project for founder Ryan Lott expanded in 2014, thanks to a kinship with Ian Chang and Rafiq Bhatia too strong to ignore. The trio strengthened their chemistry and honed their collective intuition while creating, releasing, and touring six recordings, including Brighter Wounds (2018) and the triple album Tomorrows (2021). The result is a carefully cultivated musical language rooted in curiosity and balancing opposites that largely eschews genre and structural conventions. And yet, the band remains audibly indebted to iconoclastic artists in soul, hip-hop, and experimental improvisation who themselves carved new paths forward. Distilling these varied influences, Son Lux searches for an equilibrium of raw emotional intimacy and meticulous electronic constructions. Son Lux has most recently scored the new Daniels film for A24, Everything Everywhere All at Once (March 2022). The full score album features new collaborations with Mitski, David Byrne, Randy Newman, and Moses Sumney, among others. Based in New York, Rafiq Bhatia is the first-generation American son of Muslim immigrant parents who trace their ancestry to India through East Africa. Early influences such as Jimi Hendrix, John Coltrane, and Madlib—as well as mentors and collaborators including Vijay Iyer and Billy Hart—prompted him to see music as a way to actively shape and represent his own identity, not limited by anyone else’s prescribed perspective. When Ian Chang describes his creative process, the phrase "third culture” keeps coming up. Born in the colony of Hong Kong in 1988, Chang has lived a nomadic life. Stationed out of New York for ten years and since relocated to Dallas, Texas, he built an impressive roster of progressive pop collaborators such as Moses Sumney, Joan As Policewoman, and Matthew Dear, among others, all while performing internationally and recording as a member of Son Lux and Landlady. Ryan Lott makes his home in Los Angeles but grew up all over the United States. Music was the one constant in his formative years spent at the piano. In addition to an extensive career writing music for dance, he has become a sought-after composer for advertising, television, and film. Lott’s feature film credits include The Disappearance of Eleanor Rigby (2014), Paper Towns (2015), and Mean Dreams (2017). He has co-produced and co-written music for and with Woodkid, Sufjan Stevens, and Lorde. BIOGRAPHY: QASIM NAQVI Qasim Naqvi is a drummer and founding member of Dawn of Midi. Outside of his role in D.O.M., Qasim works on various projects, from electronic music to composing for orchestras, chamber groups, dance and film.

He has been a featured composer at the Musica Nova Festival in Helsinki, the Spitalfields Festival in London, Ultima Festival, Southbank Centre and the Rest is Noise Festival in Holland. Qasim's soundtracks for the film have appeared on HBO, NBC, PBS, Showtime, New York Times Op-Docs, VICE Media, at The Tribeca, Sundance, Toronto, Rotterdam and London Film Festivals, at dOCUMENTA 13 and 14, The Guggenheim Museum, The Tate Britain (Turner Prize 2018), MOMA P.S. 1, IDFA, Berlinale and others.

This show is a proud member of Radiotopia from PRX. This episode was originally released in November, 2015. Music * Under the credits is Harlaamstrat 74 off of John Dankworth's Modesty Blaise score. * They first meet to a piece called Brouillard (version 1) from Georges Delaure's extraordinary score to Jules et Jim. (A second version comes in later when J.J. Audubon is living the high life in England). * We also hear Waltz by Mother Falcon. * I go back to the Marcelo Zarvos/Please Give well when the Scotsman arrives at their store. Note: it's the go-to soundtrack for “People Arriving at One's Store With A Life Changing Proposition” here at the Memory Palace. Also: go watch Please Give. * The little piano piece is from Nathan Johnson's score to The Day I Saw Your Heart. * Lucy and John titter like plovers to Andrew Cyrille's dope, skittering drums on Nuba 1. * The especially sad bit, right before the end is Dream 3 (in the Midst of my Life), from Max Richter's giant, From Sleep album. * A couple times, including the ending, we hear “the Lark Ascending” from Ralph Vaughn Willliams. It is beautiful. You should buy it. Notes As per usual, I read a lot about the Audubons and the Bakewells. I relied most upon the charming and smart, On the Road with John James Audubon by Mary Durant, and Carolyn DeLatte's lovely, thoughtful book, Lucy Audubon: a Biography. * Just a quick note: there's a very enjoyable PBS/American Masters/Nature documentary about Audubon. It's a fun and informative watch. But, I'll say, you come out of that thinking that things were fundamentally swell between Lucy and John in a way that I'm not entirely sure is supported by the facts. Or jibes with, you know, human nature.

“Improvisation No.1" Andrew Cyrille - William Parker - Enrico Rava: 2 Blues For Cecil (TUM Records, 2022) Andrew Cyrille, William Parker, Enrico Rava. El tema es una improvisación de los tres músicos. Tomajazz: © Pachi Tapiz, 2022 ¿Sabías que? El disco 2 Blues For Cecil está dedicado a Cecil Taylor, fallecido en el año 2018. El tema es... una improvisación, tal y como indica su título. Tanto Andrew Cyrille como William Parker formaron parte de la Cecil Taylor Unit, durante largo tiempo, aunque en épocas diferentes. Enrico Rava no tuvo tal relación con Taylor, aunque coincidió con William Parker en la formación del pianista Orchestra Of Two Continents, que grabó obras como Winged Serpents. William Parker es uno de los protagonistas del artículo "Informe Jazz Actual" que se ha publicado en el número 400 (febrero 2022) de la revista Ruta 66. Yussef Dayes, Sault, Kamashi Washington, Shabaka Hutchings, Makaya McCraven, Ambrose Akinmusire o Lafayette Gilchrist desfilan por este especial.

American jazz drummer Nasheet Waits joins Andrew on this episode of Constant Constance. Friends and colleagues for many years, from touring with guitarist Kurt Rosenwinkel to Andrew's trio, the two have worked tirelessly together in many different contexts. Performing several times on tour together in Europe to playing in Philadelphia, DC and residencies at the Village Vanguard in NYC. Today, they discuss their endeavors as touring musicians, the ups and downs of that life, how it is to be basically live-performance free for a year due to COVID and what this means for the future of live music. In a review of his 2016 album "Between Nothingness and Infinity," one listener describes, “I put Naheet Waits in the Cosmic Pantheon of All Time Jazz Drumming Brilliance. Up there with Jack DeJohnette, Famoudou Don Moye, Andrew Cyrille, Tony Williams, Tony Oxley, Billy Higgins, Paul Motian, Billy Hart, Jon Christensen, Antonio Sanchez, Adam Rudolph, and dare I say, even the Legends' Legend .... ELVIN JONES, there is Nasheet Waits.” Andrew wholeheartedly agrees. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/andrew-norman-dangelo/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/andrew-norman-dangelo/support
Dopo il live a Willisau di James Brandon Lewis in duo con Chad Taylor che vi abbiamo presentato tre puntate fa, la Intakt ha pubblicato un nuovo album del sassofonista afroamericano, Molecular, in cui alla batteria ritroviamo anche Chad Taylor. Brandon Lewis è un appassionato di biologia molecolare, e nella musica di questo album si fa orientare da concezioni piuttosto complesse, ma questo non gli impedisce di fare una musica molto comprensibile, non senza una buona dose di aperto lirismo. Al pianoforte in Molecular siede Aruan Ortiz: e il pianista cubano - già presente con diversi dischi nel catalogo Intakt - è anche l'intestatario di Inside Rhythmic Falls, in trio con un batterista che non ha bisogno di presentazioni, Andrew Cyrille, e col percussionista cubano Mauricio Herrera. Fra i più interessanti pianisti emrsi nel nuovo millennio, Ortiz, che vive a New York, si è distinto come una fugura importante dell'avanguardia, ma rimane molto legato alle sue radici culturali afrocubane: e - spiega il pianista, nato a Santiago de Cuba - ogni brano di questo album racconta una storia sull'Oriente dell'isola.

This album is one of the most impressive recording debuts in Jazz history. Walt Dickerson emerged from total obscurity with this wonderful document. He was a totally individual voice of the vibraphone unbeholden to either Milt Jackson or Lionel Hampton. This was the first of an impressive four discs for the Prestige/New Jazz label and later there were more for other companies. Dickerson appears here with his working quartet with six of his own original compositions. His style is fully formed, warm and with technique to burn. Along with Walt are Austin Crowe on piano, Bob Lewis on bass both relative unknown but fine players from Walt's hometown of Philadelphia. The drummer here making his debut is the great Andrew Cyrille who went on to become one of the most innovative of percussionists. Check out "This is Walt Dickerson! and you won't be disappointed.
A Noise From The Deep: Greenleaf Music Podcast with Dave Douglas
Dave visits legendary drummer and composer Andrew Cyrille to talk about how he organizes his music, why … The post ANFTD #68: Andrew Cyrille first appeared on Greenleaf Music by Dave Douglas.
This album is considered Walt Dickerson's masterpiece. It was his final date of the four he did for Prestige/New Jazz. Dickerson is to this day underrated, he was the most unique and original voice of the vibes or vibraphone to emerge in the 60s. He wasn't beholden to Milt Jackson or Lionel Hampton but was entirely his own man. He was called "the Coltrane of the vibes" for his sweeping and fast technique but this technique only allowed him to express his music better. This album is dedicated to Walt's wife, Elizabeth and hence the long title track is called "To My Queen". It's a suite of different moods and properties. After the title track is a great take on Irving Berlin's "How Deep is The Ocean" and the album ends with a duet between Walt Dickerson and bassist George Tucker on Billie Holiday's immortal "God Bless The Child". Dickerson is accompanied by pianist Andrew Hill who is always worth hearing for his originality. George Tucker as mentioned is on bass and the great Andrew Cyrille on drums. Tonight "To My Queen".
A slowly developing amalgamation of mixed-genre madness, fusing ambient, experimental & jazz soundscapes into a mixture of quiet deconstruction. "Slow Decay" is a collaborative mix from Low Light Mixes & Ambient Landscape. We've each done mixes for each other but we thought it would be cool make a mix in which we both contributed alternating sections. Gene(ambient landscape) came up with the title and I started things off with a couple of cuts. I sent it to Gene, he added a few more, sent it back to me, I added more tracks and so on and so on. Until we had a fascinating 1 hour & 16 minute journey. I love how things turned out. The combination of ecm-style jazz and ambient and experimental music worked perfectly.
