If you want to change the game, first you need to master the game. Coming up in Newark in the fifties was the exact right place and time for Larry Young to learn the idiom of the Hammond B-3 organ, and he learned his lessons well. His early records embody the soul-jazz organ trio sound made popular by Jimmy Smith. But as the sound of the sixties emerged, Larry Young (also known by his Muslim name, Khalid Yasin Abdul Aziz) was reaching for something more. His journey, including hours of conversation and jam sessions with spiritual avatar John Coltrane, brought about an expanded consciousness that revealed itself in his music. Larry Young pulled an unmistakably boisterous explosion of sound through the B-3. He showed new horizons that fellow organists have been pursuing for more than half a century. Brian Charette is one of them. He is not only an endlessly inventive multi-instrumentalist and bandleader, but also one of our best students of the music's history. He joins host Mitch Goldman on this week's Deep Focus. Did the WKCR archives provide recordings of Larry Young and John Coltrane's private sessions? Unfortunately, none are known to exist. Do we have rare recordings of Larry Young and Jimi Hendrix pushing each other in new directions? Find out Monday (10/27) from 6p to 9p NYC time on WKCR 89.9FM, WKCR-HD, or wkcr.org.

This particular episode lasts two hours and has no ads in the middle, so you won't be woken up or disturbed while focusing or relaxing. When you listen to ASMR Sleep Recordings, you can lock your phone, so you won't get any bothersome stimuli from notifications and other sounds from your phone. You can switch between apps while studying or working without pausing the ambient sound.About our sounds:Water creates a natural white noise. Infused with the relaxing quality of nature and the sound-masking properties of white noise, listening to running water is an ideal way to turn off all the stressful things life brings, and to de-stress. Some of our most popular sounds include a river, flowing creek, babbling brook, gentle waves on a lake, and a bamboo fountain. Rain also creates a natural white noise. Infused with the relaxing quality of nature and the sound-masking properties of white noise, listening to rain is an ideal way to switch off all the stressful things life brings and to de-stress. Some of our most popular sounds are rain on an umbrella, hailstorms, hard rain, soft rain, gentle rain, wind and rain, rain on a car.White noise helps babies and children to get a better and deeper night's sleep. This is because external sounds are masked by the noise. With white noise in the background, your child will not hear annoying cars driving by or dogs barking in bed. This allows your little one to sleep better. And it also saves you as a parent a lot of hours!Pink noise is more common in nature than you might expect. It can be compared to continuous rainfall or wind. In addition to white noise, pink noise is also increasing in popularity, especially in business environments. Because it can increase productivity, concentration and creativity.Brown noise can be compared to waves of the sea, a river current, strong winds or the sound of thunder during a storm. Like pink noise, brown noise is very similar to white noise. However, the frequencies have been lowered even further and a lot more concentrated. This gives it a rougher/coarse tone than pink noise. It sounds a bit deeper and a bit bass-like. The benefits of brown noise are the same as the other types of noise. It provides relaxation, increased focus and improved deep sleep.DISCLAIMER: Be aware that loud noises can damage your hearing. If you can't carry on a conversation without raising your voice while playing one of our spheres, the sound may be too loud for your ears. Do not place the speakers directly next to a baby's ears. If you have trouble hearing or ringing in your ears, stop listening to the white noise immediately and see an audiologist or your doctor.

This episode dives into a game-changing productivity tool: The Eisenhower Matrix (also known as the Urgent-Important Matrix). This four-quadrant framework challenges the common mistake business owners make of confusing mere urgency with true importance. You'll hear me break down the four quadrants: Do, Schedule, Delegate, and Delete – and illustrate the importance of protecting your […]
Who came up with the idea that the middle of the road is the right place to be? Regular listeners to Mitch Goldman's Deep Focus know that it's those shadowy corners, those Edge Cities, where new things start to happen. And who embodied this idea more than drummer Tony Williams' late sixties supergroup, Lifetime? Lifetime inspired another supergroup in 2008 when guitarist Vernon Reid and bassist Jack Bruce (himself a member of Lifetime) formed Spectrum Road with drummer Cindy Blackman and keyboard conjurer John Medeski. Did these 4 masters of many musical disciplines present faithful recreations of Lifetime's original recordings? Or did their live shows start where Lifetime ended, and end up in the highest towers of their own Edge City? Mitch's guest, guitarist Ben Tyree, knows the answer. Ben has shared stages with and drawn inspiration from at least 2 of these 4 innovators. He credits John Medeski with inspiring his life-changing move to New York City. And will the WKCR archives yield live, unreleased recordings that will bear him out? We don't know ourselves, and the suspense is just killing us! Find out Monday (9/1) when Mitch Goldman and Ben Tyree plunge into the vast WKCR archive. Deep Focus airs Mondays from 6p to 9p NYC time on WKCR 89.9FM, WKCR-HD, or wkcr.org.

The flow state represents the pinnacle of human performance and consciousness - that magical zone where time dissolves, self-doubt vanishes, and you become pure creative force in action. In this state, your neural networks synchronize in ways that amplify focus, accelerate learning, and unlock capabilities that seem almost superhuman. Professional athletes call it "the zone," artists know it as creative ecstasy, and entrepreneurs recognize it as the birthplace of breakthrough innovations. When you're in flow, you're not just performing at your best - you're accessing a dimension of consciousness where the impossible becomes inevitable, where challenges transform into opportunities, and where your authentic genius emerges effortlessly. This activation is designed to rewire your nervous system for on-demand access to flow states. Rather than waiting for these peak experiences to happen randomly, you'll learn to generate them consciously through specific neurological triggers and consciousness techniques. We'll activate the precise brainwave patterns, release the optimal neurochemical cocktails, and align your awareness with the quantum field where miracles live. By the end of this session, you'll possess the keys to unlock flow whenever you need it most - whether you're creating, competing, solving problems, or simply wanting to experience life from the highest levels of human potential. This isn't just about performance enhancement; this is about stepping into the version of yourself that operates from pure flow as your natural state of being.

How is it possible that you have never heard guitarist Jef Lee Johnson? He was as incendiary and as nakedly original as any soloist you have ever heard (absolutely any!). But his greater distinction might have been his songwriting. You don't learn to write songs that are that revealing, that insightful, that cleverly put-together, and that hilariously funny, just by working at it. First, you have to have the wisdom, and Jef had it pouring out of him. It seemed as if he couldn't make it stop if he wanted to. Jef toured and recorded for decades, but, for whatever reason, he never broke through the way many of us thought he should have. One person who got to witness the artistry up close was fellow guitarist Bob Dee. The two shared the front line in Ronald Shannon Jackson's Decoding Society, and Bob has never forgotten a moment of what he saw and heard. Bob joins host Mitch Goldman for a Deep Focus that continues the WKCR Lost Masters tradition. Join us Monday (8/18) when Mitch Goldman and Bob Dee unearth live, unreleased recordings. Deep Focus airs Mondays from 6p to 9p NYC time on WKCR 89.9FM, WKCR-HD or wkcr.org.

This is a rare treat: a former subject of Deep Focus becomes the guest. In 2016, drummer Will Calhoun was our guest for a Deep Focus on one of his heroes, Elvin Jones. Will brought a cassette of a set of music that he had heard as a teenager at the Village Vanguard. At the time, Elvin had an emerging guitarist with a sound entirely unlike that of anyone else who had ever picked up the instrument. For the audience and for this young man, every note that he played brought an amazed sense of wonder and discovery. Little did Will know that, in the years to come, the world would discover Jean-Paul Bourelly's talent, and that he would become a lifelong friend and collaborator. Jean-Paul's music, informed by his Haitian and Chicago Blues roots, as well as hip-hop, West African traditions, and his own unbridled creative imagination, is still immediately recognizable and entirely beyond category. What a privilege to have him on Deep Focus. Join us Monday (7/21) when Mitch Goldman hosts Jean-Paul Bourelly on Deep Focus and unearths live, unreleased recordings. Deep Focus airs Mondays from 6p to 9p NYC time on WKCR 89.9FM, WKCR-HD or wkcr.org.

This is a rare treat: a former subject of Deep Focus becomes the guest. In 2016, drummer Will Calhoun was our guest for a Deep Focus on one of his heroes, Elvin Jones. Will brought a cassette of a set of music that he had heard as a teenager at the Village Vanguard. At the time, Elvin had an emerging guitarist with a sound entirely unlike that of anyone else who had ever picked up the instrument. For the audience and for this young man, every note that he played brought an amazed sense of wonder and discovery. Little did Will know that, in the years to come, the world would discover Jean-Paul Bourelly's talent, and that he would become a lifelong friend and collaborator. Jean-Paul's music, informed by his Haitian and Chicago Blues roots, as well as hip-hop, West African traditions, and his own unbridled creative imagination, is still immediately recognizable and entirely beyond category. What a privilege to have him on Deep Focus. Join us Monday (7/21) when Mitch Goldman hosts Jean-Paul Bourelly on Deep Focus and unearths live, unreleased recordings. Deep Focus airs Mondays from 6p to 9p NYC time on WKCR 89.9FM, WKCR-HD or wkcr.org.

When Mitch Goldman invited Roy Campbell to be his guest on Deep Focus, he knew that Roy was a master student of the entire history of the music, but he had no idea that Roy knew Woody Shaw personally. Stunning tales of Ornette Coleman, Lee Morgan, and others emerge in this remarkable program, recorded not 2 months before Roy Campbell's tragic early passing. Roy, you are missed! #WKCR #DeepFocus #RoyCampbell #MitchGoldman #JazzInterview #JazzPodcast #JazzRadio

What's the real cost of constant scrolling? In this episode, we unpack how social media trains your brain to crave short bursts of dopamine, leaving your attention span fragmented and your long-term goals out of reach. Using a powerful personal story and relatable metaphors, we explore the difference between chasing fleeting highs and building lasting focus. This is not an anti-social media rant, it's an invitation to choose wisely. What are you really feeding your mind? And is it helping you become who you want to be?

In the seventies, when Uri Caine was discovering the piano, two dominant influences were Chick Corea and Herbie Hancock. Both were in their thirties, both had played emerging electric music with Miles Davis after having established their Jazz bona fides, both led successful fusion bands (Chick with Return To Forever, Herbie with his Head Hunters band), and each had a distinctive voice on the keyboard. How stunning must it have been in 1978 when they announced a joint recording and touring project? Just two geniuses on stage at two concert grand pianos. If that's not catnip for an eager young pianist, we don't know what is! You better believe that, when they came to Philadelphia, Uri Caine was in the house. I mean, the guy is still talking about it! What did he hear? What was the big deal? Find out Monday (5/26) when Mitch Goldman hosts Uri Caine on Deep Focus and unearths live, unreleased recordings.

Yeah… same. Brain fog isn't just a quirky phrase, it's a real, frustrating state that creeps in quietly and overstays its welcome. And in a world built to hijack your focus and drain your energy, it's no surprise that so many of us are experiencing it. In this episode, I dig into three surprisingly overlooked reasons you might be stuck in the fog, three practical ways to cut through it, and why the fix might not be another productivity hack or nootropic supplement.For more go to: www.scottmlynch.comEpisode resources:Rewiring Your Brain For FocusThis episode is brought to you by:TonalLevel up your life by joining my Patreon where you'll get exclusive content every week and more badass offerings (rips t-shirt in half, Hulk Hogan style, and runs around the room).

"Eddie (Harris) was an enigma. He was also a soulful intellectual. He was an innovator who had hit records. He was a success, but he didn't appear all that popular. I think he must have had 3 audiences in one. Each person seeing something different in his music, and that's problematic to navigate in. But he was who he was. He was a creative force with many talents and interests." Saxophonist/bandleader/composer Eric Person We couldn't put it better ourselves, so how about if we give Eddie Harris a good, hard listen? This Monday (5/12) from 6p to 9p NYC time, host Mitch Goldman invites Eric Person to the WKCR studios for a powerful Deep Focus. If only they had rare, unreleased recordings of Eddie Harris from the WKCR archives. Hmmm... We'll have to work on that!
